Weapon Line Idea: Spellbooks

fenn1539

this is a simple one but i feel like if they deicde to try adding another weapon line, it HAS to be spellbooks that would work like the tank version of staves with most of their abilites being tank orientated vs the staffs that are mostly dps with just ice staves being the only source of tanking the line offers (not to say its bad but having only one SPECIFIC magic tank option sucks) with i feel like spellbooks could be made to be interesting where you can run them as 2 handed weapons OR you can run them with a sword as well like a spellblade with a magic spellbook floating over your left hand as you slash away with your magic sword with i feel that even if your going sword and book, it should restore magica for one thing and it should be more ward and dmg mitigation focused than staves and i feel that it also should have its damage types being themed with necromancers, siphoner nightblades, and arcanists with the arcanist one especially makes the most sense but necro also makes sense cause necromancer is a very tank orientated class with than lastly, nightblades also work with the tank themeing due to how good shadow and siphoning are for tanks.
