If we dont get rifle.
Would much prefer a focus, or even scepter. Torch, like war horn, seems very much to defeat the purpose of the whole sneaky thief thing. Guess it could work as a tomb raider or something… Perhaps if they had a unique effect like dagger ele and torch glow is somewhat dimmed by a lot of smoke. As for mace, seems kind of anti-climatic.
Reason I’m for scepter and focus is to look at thief as a con man. Well, the scepter anyway. The focus seems to lean more on the shadow magic side. Anyhow, the elite specs should be opening up new play styles. Of course, the look of a wep isn’t nearly as important as the skills, but rifle, scepter, and focus seem like they would have the greatest effect on gaining new play styles. Certainly more than mace.

What about axe or torch? I would like that:P
I’d rather have a longbow then a rifle (even though longbow is already given to gaurdian)
But of course it depends all on the skills they give with it, but if it doesn’t have access to stealth or evades I doubt that it will be chosen.
I want the princess wand :’(
Rifle would be nice but I think I’d prefer a one handed weapon (off-handed) just to increase the number of different sets a Thief can use.
If they add a Rifle, it’s just 1 more option, if they add an off-hand weapon like torch, second sword or even mace, it’s 3 new options when combined with the main hand ones. Thief is lacking on weapon diversity right now.
If we get the rifle, which kind of utility skills we’ll get to compliment it? We already got traps.

We didn’t choose the mace, the mace chose us.

No.
But seriously speaking, if we’re not getting the rifle then I don’t know. I dislike most mace skins (please no) and torch doesn’t suit the theme of thief imo. Melee staff maybe, or offhand sword? Axe? I don’t see why we would get weapons like focus and scepter.
I feel like we’ll get rifle or longbow to finally give us a 1200 base range weapon.
Heck, maybe we’ll get rifle, with a specialisation called sniper and it’ll be 1500 base range or more too.
Longbow is already taken by dragon hunter and I doubt they will give the same weapon to 2 different elite specs. Rifle could be interesting (but I really REALLY doubt it would have a range over 1500 ^^), but I would prefer mace or axe. And following the rule to not give the same weapon to 2 elite specs and we already know rifle was an option for chronomancer, I hope thiefs will get another weapon. Some weapon which makes thiefs looking a little bit more brutal as they are yet.
