room for improvements and just wanted share my ideas

I think what really stood out and seemed most interesting was the “Battle Axe” being available to Elementalists. All of your ideas were awesome but I find this one to be exceedingly interesting in that Elementalists don’t really have and two handed weapons aside from the staff. I for one would like to see them use a hulking weapon such as the battle axe.

Thanks bobomb. I’ve always felt the elems never really use their weapons as weapons anyway they seem to channel their attuned powers through the weapon as if it more of a conductor of the energy allowing them to shape their power. they have daggers but never stab anyone so I just want see them use a weapon imbued with the magic like their summoned weapons are. I would be nice if they break the mould and allow them to be like magic infused warriors.

Id love to see a warrior wielding a halibut.

Fish Wars 2
