Guild Wars 2

Now I really regret that there is no polls at this forum, because it would be useful to make some statistics about subject. Anyway… I find scepter as ugliest weapon type in the game. I can’t explain why, it’s not rational. Scepters are just not beautiful. Unaesthetic. I asked some my friends and guildmates about this subject and almost all of them respond same opinion. So, it seems most people don’t like scepters appeareance too.
Now about suggestion. I don’t suggest to remove scepters from the game – it will be violent for people with original taste, that love scepters. I think better way is switch weapon type of all scepters to focus and make focus wieldable for both hands, like dagger. How do you find it, Arena?

Focus needs some serious work in my opinion. That should stand out some more because it now looks like, well, it is hard to even see it actually.

I agree with you that most scepters don’t look nice. There are couple of designs that look good though.

And here we go. Don’t want this topic lost in tune.

I feel the opposite way. I think plenty of scepters look great, even the standard wooden ones. The foci, however, often look silly. Especially the the one that’s a stick with a cowbell on the end.

So, if Arena.Net will follow my suggestion, you will be able to dual-wield your amazing beautiful scepters!
Also, as Valkyrie said, it’s hard to even see focus (if I understand that properly, my English still imperfect). So, character which dual-wield focus looks like bare-handed. Mage with bare hands – isn’t bad, really?

Yeah, many foci look like a curved stick with a cowbell on the end.

And this is one time we do NOT need more cowbell.

I like the sceptres, but the foci are awful. The bell just does not work, and it seems to be the predominant skin.

Bit of off-topic: why Arena named that things “foci”? I guess it is euphemism for “fetish”.
