In most staff animation the character use only 1 hand .
My 2 cent:add book.
*NOTE.Staff still 2h weapon,book-only visual effect

    Great idea.

    I would like to see different styles for each type of staff. Don't know why they look exactly the same, it's kinda lame.

    I love the drawing, its really gorgeous! But i think I prefer the staff without book anyway.
    Could be nice if they add another magical weapon, like wand + book. Or just book, like the arcanist in FFXIV.

    How would they block?

    Hold Staff up with a small force field to lighten the blow.

    I already have some thoughts about it.If ZOS want to make 2h staff=1h staff+book/orb than bow should be bow/arrow to prevent differences




    How would they block?
    Well....45 degree with staff in one hand and magick rune(shield) from the book....i have also good question:How 2h users block ,magick fireball? :D

    It would be nice to have a book as a weapon all of it's own.
    If you can be anything, be kind.

    I think it's a terrible idea -- HOWEVER... Adding tomes/wands into the game would be excellent. Torches toooooo. ;D

    Awesome!
    Already picturing new book-throwing skill line. IN YOUR FACE! Do want!

    However... the (normal) book will look a lot more like a rolled up last weeks newspaper.
    And of course, various fancy-looking book covers will be available in the Clown Store shortly.

    I would have worded it differently, like maybe just a no instead of saying it is a terrible idea. ;p

    But this is a TES game. You may learn spells from a book, but you do not need a book to cast a it. For me it would feel out of place tbh.

    wouldn't make sense, since people would argue that you would be given more slots to remember how to use spells.

    book is not rly eso type of thing, however, i would love to see all skills(class skills etc) being channeled through equipped weapon instead of mysteriously 'losing' weapon for the spell and the it magickally comes back.
