New Staff Idea.

FoJul · June 17

I think we need a 4th damage staff. Would make sense considering there is 4 weapon types for melee.

Give us either More pen or more crit using it.

My Personal opinion, I hate that I cant medium Weave with lightning staff, and it makes a core function of the staff completely useless to me.

I think if they were to do anything, they should split the damage staves into their own categories instead of being all under the Destruction Staff umbrella, that way they can configure each of them into their own niche. Then they can have different skill lines that are all schools of magick.

After that, they should add an Unarmed skill line.

After THAT, they should add in a 1h melee + magick skill line so you can use those schools of magick I mentioned earlier in your off-hand.

Only then would I even consider a new staff.

Alteration Staff - Debuffs, CC, throw stuff at enemies
Oblivion Staff - Summoning bounnd weapons and lesser daedra, alternate soul trapping options (heavy attack)
Illusion Staff - Buffs/Debuffs, short duration summons for effects like taunt, interrupt etc., unique heavy attack that summons an illusion

I think you have a great line of thinking here. To be honest, I think we should have skill lines for every school of magic when it comes to staves. I would love to have a staff for Conjuration and summon in Daedra, Atronachs, and even Undead (and other conjurable allies/constructs). As for the types of staves, maybe they should be more varied in how the skills are affected by the staves. For instance, Wall of Fire should be as it is while Wall of Ice should literally be deployable cover.

Words cannot describe how upsetting it was to have only two companion Conjuration skills in the game, and neither of them can be an Atronach. I know the ultimate is a Storm Atronach, but it's not the same as wandering with one.
