    It would seem to reason that if Zos were to add a new damage focused weapon line to the game it would be magicka based.

    After all there are 3 stam based damage weapons in the game and only 1 that fits the bill for magicka.

    Sorry to toss logic into this discussion.

    And weapons are supposed to use stam based and class skills are supposed to use magicka. So unless you want staves to use stam and have an ability to be morphed into magicka, it doesn't hold much water.

    Maybe even with the option to "imbue fists" to make them magicka based.

    Boomerang, pike, flail.

    If you don't think this game needs flails, we have some serious disagreements.

    And weapons are supposed to use stam based and class skills are supposed to use magicka. So unless you want staves to use stam and have an ability to be morphed into magicka, it doesn't hold much water.

    If weapons are supposed to always be stam based then why do staves exist? It is possible to add new weapons that are magicka based. A couple examples might be skill lines for things like orbs/wands/spellbooks. It's completely possible to combine those types of magical weapons with things like shields or 1-handed weapons or even dual wield them.

    I think it would be awesome to also have an unarmed skill line as well.

    It would also be great to have a skill line more dedicated to a stamina support role, kind of like how the resto staff fills the magicka role, but not necessarily a weapon line.

    Funny thing is that pikes are better in single combat than twohanded, onebladed, one and a half meter long axes. Facts.

    Not really. What you have said here does not hold up in ESO. Clear as water.

    More likely they would do spears, or something specific that has been in previous games. However, I think we can be confident that the next weapon would probably be a magicka weapon (most likely 1h & rune or 1h & scroll, or something similar).

    What Starlock wants to see for new weapon lines:
    • One-Handed. Yes, just one weapon, in one hand. I was building a swashbuckler character once... up until the point I realized that the game doesn't let you use any weapon skill lines doing things that way. It was a sad day. Especially since you can do a single one-handed weapon in pretty much every single Elder Scrolls game ever made except this one.
    • Unarmed. Here's another one that has been present in many previous Elder Scrolls games but was just left off our list for ESO. I like the idea of a monk class too, but I think unarmed fighting styles should be accessible to anyone. I could see the heavy attacks restoring magicka or stamina... possibly both in halved amounts.
    • Crossbow. This would be the most challenging to develop animations and models for, and might be too similar to bow to warrant its own line. But I want it anyway. I would drop bow on my artificer in a heartbeat if there was a crossbow weapon skill line.
    • Alteration Staff. Frost staff tanking, while an interesting idea, is just too half-baked. Alteration staves would be a dedicated weapon line for magicka tanking, only properly baked. Telekinesis for chains/pull, an active taunt skill, ebonyflesh spells for defense, perhaps a passive to bust locks, reduce falling damage, or grant elemental cloaks that damage attackers.
    • Illusion Staff. This weapon line would focus on crowd control effects. Pacify mobs attacking you, fighting on your side for a while, paralyze foes, or fear them away. Or grant you and allies various minor buffs to rally them to the fight. And of course, invisibility - not just for nightblades anymore.
    • Conjuration Staff. Lots of possibilities here, such as putting daedra mobs under your control, summoning skeletons, raising zombies, or creating fire/frost atronachs. Or, you can transform your staff into a bound weapon to use it as a melee attack as a bound sword/axe/mace.

    Got some interesting ideas there imo. I can see a magicka tank build conjuring some daedra or atronachs then swapping to alt staff.
