Can staff, bow and 2H users use 5/4 trait sets?

    No, and if I remember correctly only the one 'in use' weapon counts to one of the set pieces too..

    So for example, You have a Bow of Awesomeness and a Staff of Awesomeness in your primary and secondary slots respectively, you'd only get 1/5 towards the 5/5 of the set..

    So with a shield you can get 9 'set points' but not dual wield? Seems unfair

    1h + shield or DW both count as 2. It's only the 2h weapons that count as 1.

    @EQBallzz‌ is right. And since this is Elder Staves Online, 1h+Shield and DW need all the help they can get, dontcha think? :P

    Life isn't fair. Also dual wield does count both items for the set counts.

    Theres a total of 12 (or 11) equipment slots that can be used for equipment.
