Resto Staff/s is Love, Resto Staff/s is Life - necrotic staff? some suggestions.

Korprok · June 2018

Greetings, fellow player and ZoS.

Time to get some much needed -Love & Life- to our resto staffs

I would like to see some new ones (it's long overdue) and I'll start of by suggesting few "themes" such as Necro staffs, Soul staffs, and Siphon staffs - have them both to be visually and mechanically stand out from eachother like the destro staffs.

Perhaps a bit stranger, but how about fire/ice/lightning-restoration staffs?

Thank you for reading

regards, korprok

The game is basically Stamina Scrolls online, so you will see spears being added sooner than new staves.

Interesting idea

Ah yes that's why pretty much any ball group consists of magspecs only with one rapids slave, or the last 2 trials heavily focus mag/ ranged dds.
I won't even start with stamclass healers etc.

Anyone claiming there is a stam or mag meta at this point has lost touch to the game

Personally I'd like to see spears, perhaps a 2H spear could be for tanking?

agree with that, raids are mag heavy, and solo is stam heavy- exceptions of/c.

any takers for some new resto staffs? I'd like to see some much needed flair and flavor for em heal staffs.

final question and I'll let this one die

any interest in staffs such as Necro, Soul, Siphon as damage staffs? Magicka weapons (destro/resto) are quite boring.

I´d rather see staves from the different magic schools. The conjuration staff could be some kind of necromantic staff. Alteration staff could have very interesting damage and utility skills.

I'd love an update to Staff weapon line. Having the same exact skills with just a difference of element is pretty lame... if anything, divide out the three elements and give them their own unique skill line.

Yet, as others have stated, I would rather have a new 'magicka-based' weapon added to the mix, new things added to the game always generate excitement... it's the "re-balancing of old, existing skills" that continue to keep players bored and unexcited.

Came looking for sarcasm in this thread based on the title.

Left disappointed.

that would be awesome- one staff for each and every school. I'd say the more thematic such as Necro, Soul and Siphon could then be added as skill lines.

that's a good idea, I like it- instead of just a magicka weapon you would treat it as it's own thing like they with the stamina based weapons.

Other magicka weapons could be rods, wands, and/or some sort of "focus" an item such as a orb or the like.

Could do some Shield and one handed wand skill line as an example.

Well necros are the opposite of healers so i'd assume a necro staff would wither people to death..

it's more about the theme of necromancy, there is plenty of ways to do necro staff healing- it might be boring as just a heal staff- necromancy in it self would of/c be better served as a skill line or a whole new class.
