Make more class skills stamina based

I'm really referring to mostly Templars. I'm sorry, but it just makes sense that most, If not all of the aedric spear skill line is stamina based. It revolves around a SPEAR. A melee weapon! Yet there's only two skills that cost stamina! I just don't understand it.. i can throw a spear.. I can jab furiously with a spear, but I can't charge forward with a spear. Has anyone else ever thought of this? I can't be the only one who thinks it doesn't make sense..

Edit: oh and I forgot, the ultimate.. swing your spear/javelin-whatever-.. it does magic damage.. really? Why does something like that not do physical damage?

    Characters in fantasy stories and movies wield magical weapons all the time.. but it doesn't take magic to use them. "Kthx" - you're welcome.

    They're also EQUIPPED with those weapons, not using a spell/skill/whatever to summon one....good try though.

    So aedric spear should be physical dmg because spear is melee? So bow should be magical dmg because it's range ? :wink:

    You can also say that DK whip should deal physical dmg because it's whip - a melee weapon. The thing with class skill lines is no matter what weapon it imitate it's still magical version of that weapon not a real weapon You're carrying. Aedric spear have lot of spear animation yes , but this spear is magical shiny glowing not wood and steel maded one.

    I get it. It's a magical spear. But by that logic it wouldn't make sense that I can throw a spear and jab it via stamina. So in that case.. it only makes sense that the rest of the spear abilities could also have a morph that cost stamina.

    Still wondering why crystal blast isn't a stamina morph...
    You should never ever use this morph since crystal frag is just better in every single way.

    Sure. When weapon skill lines has magicka morphs as well. It makes no absolute sense for an ability to be able to cleave enemies and then create a damage barrier to be a stamina ability.

    Or having floating daggers around you protecting you from aoe.

    Oh oh! Or you raise your shield and then absorb the spell to heal you.
