[edit] Dual wield (Discussion)

Allow using a martial weapon in the offhand. This would allow you to have less defence in return for looking better.

[edit] Dual Shields and Dual Offhands (Discussion)

All the talk so for on dual wielding is offensive-oriented. This suggestion is an appeal to make sure the defensive-oriented aspect is not neglected on dual wielding discussions.

If tanks or meat shields are merely going to act as a wall, then they should be allowed to equip two shields for increased defense and additional defense bonuses.

Why this is a good idea
  • Provides increased defense
  • Allows for a wider range of defense bonus combinations when equipping shields or offhands
Why it may not work out
  • Cannot attack unless skills similar to shield bash are implemented.
  • Running around with two shields looks silly.
  • If they do tank, they would be sitting ducks for magic nukers.
