Hi! I returned not so long time ago, and for now noticed overpricing on "magicka" swords.
When i asked why so, ppl told me that "Twin Blade and Blunt" (Dual Wield) passive for swords increase both Weapon and Spell damage, flat.
Considering that its a Weapon with all Stamina abilities with Weapon passives... it looks strange and nearly exploit.
I mean, even in this one passive. Axes - 8% bleeding chance on melee. Magicka skills nearly not use melee.
Maces - Physical Resistance ignoring. Magicka skills ignore 100% of Physical anyways.
Daggers - gives Weapon crit. WWeapon crit, not Spell crit.
Swords - flat 5% damage boost to both Weapon and Spell damage.
So any nobrainer Templar or Sorcerer or whatevah can equip two "magicka" set swords, get set bonuses (hey, one free slot since one-handed, so they can use 2 full 5-items sets and monster set of 2 items at same time), weapon traits bonuses and - flat +5% Spell Damage? And spam Magicka abilities with increased damage - because, hey, in whole Stamina/Weapon based skill tree there's one broken passive? Partly broken. 3 of 4 weapon types in Passive get bonuses just for Stamina/Weapon, and this one 4rd is ta-dah, cheat.
