Aegis caller Staves and Bow's?? Why?

xeNNNNN✭✭✭✭✭
✭Why are there Staves and Bows for Aegis caller if it needs a Melee skill to proc?
The same reason every other set has weapon variants they shouldn't have. Because grind. Because the loot pool would be too small because they want people to play more and because they're genuinely daft.
I've been looking for BSW inferno for almost 5 years now. What have I found? 1 lightning staff and about 10000 daggers.Ah, e-communities - the "pinnacle" of the internet............yeah, right.0 -

✭✭✭✭I imagine it's a coding thing. You'd have to add exclusions which would mean more work for no pay off. Financially speaking.
It’s much more likely to be an ‘institutional memory loss’ or ineffective design process. It’s probably stupidly easy to edit a loot drop sheet, it’s just there’s no one who does it who remembers why there is no Viper bow and there’s no part of the Set design process that goes ‘check the 5 piece bonus to see whether there are any ineffective weapon types and remove these from the drop list’. And there’s no one at QA whose role includes checking any of this.
Because what’s easiest is simply throwing it out there and seeing if enough people notice/care before bothering to fix it.0 -
stevenyaub16_ESO✭✭✭✭to be fair there's a bunch of class melee skills that do proc it if you are bow/bowing. Even warden shalks procs it. It's not optimal but it can at least be used in that way.0 -

Not saying this isn’t the case, but that’s a *really* short memory if they’ve forgotten the reasoning for their policy on melee proc drops between the reverting of Ravager 6 months ago and this most recent update.
But yeah, sounds about right that the process just isn’t there.0 -
precambria✭✭✭✭✭You wouldn't believe how hard I tried to get the bloodmoon bow, just so I could have the 4 piece part of the set active when was ranging lolol 30+ vmos runs including HM/nodeath and I never did
