Spears and Polearms
Now, before I get any comments saying "There's no spears in ESO," I would like to take some time to speak my mind:
First of all, the spears in Morrowind were great - highlight of the game! Second, I think that it would be a great achievement for the ZOS team to add spear mechanics into an MMO. This would be a great thing for ESO to have, and I believe it should definitely be added. A spear mechanic would be some of the most fun in any MMO for combat, and to try it out in PvP (where skill is everything) would make ESO the best MMO I've ever played all over again.
- Jump into the comments all! The only way to get spears is by joining the fray!

Every cyclone derives its power from a calm centre. So too does a Nimbus Monk.

✭✭✭✭✭actually there are spears in ESO.
if you are in AD and go to the skywatch fighters guild, two NPC's are training outside with spears, they appear to have three custom animations:
-a basic jab
-a heavy jab
-an overhead sweep (looks kinda like executioner with a uppercut style charge up and strike thing going on)
I am hopeful this is a sign of things to come as ZoS has stated and Paul Sage said they don't plan on introducing new classes but DO intend to introduce more skill lines, and as we know weapon lines are available to everyone.
hopeful

Or by playing the Templar, admittedly it's a virtual spear, but I use it.People believe what they either want to be true or what they are afraid is true!

✭Low level High Elf staffs look like spears, they look awesome but like all staffs look naff at higher levels, which is a shame because I LOVED the look at low level.0 -
Woolenthreads✭✭✭✭I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before. Not that someone wouldn't have had a go for rezzing an old thread. Personally I think they ran out of ways it could be different from other skill lines.Oooh look, lot's of Butterflies! Wait! Butterflies? Get out of here Sheo, stop bugging me!

✭Eh, a piercing weapon skill line could be made different than the current swinging weapon skill lines just fine. Melee cone weapon damage instead of full AoE. Maybe even give you a ranged javelin ability. Or even an ability where the first use was a quick little strike, and the second use is a heavier follow-up. There are plenty of things we don't have that would make sense here.0 -
guybrushtb16_ESO✭✭✭✭The problem with introducing new weapon types is that by building the existing ones in the way they did, they set the bar for new ones pretty high. To really mesh well with the game, any new weapon would need motifs*tiers new models, and a completely new set of animations.
Looking at the rate with which we get new stuff, I'd more expect them to settle for the low hanging fruit like new passives on existing lines, or new lines that can be used with existing assets, like maybe unarmed or 1h stance.0 -
