I think that removing the cooldown on weapon switching would increase the skill ceiling on combat and make it more fun.

Due to the cooldown on weapon switching right you aren’t really using two weapons, you are using one weapon then switching to another to blow its cooldowns while you wait to switch back.

If you removed the cooldown you can switch to different weapons to use specific skills when needed, this would increase the possibilities of combos and chains dramatically.

There would have to be changes skills to skill and items but I think the change would be extremely beneficial.

Agree. On the Necro i only switch to staff to fear people trying to finish someone off, then i have to wait for the cooldown before i can switch back to sceptre… annoying as hell, especially since the staff is so gimpy in open field combat.

I vote no.
This is primarily because of traits and sigils that grant benefits to your character on weapon swap.
These would become permenant buffs if you had no CD.
