It’ll just be a staff skin.

I see why you say this, the model is holding it in roughly the same way as current staves. However, I will gnash my teeth and rend my garments if you are correct. That is clearly a halberd model. God if they give it to spellcasters I’ll be kittened

Its the seraph spear model… http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Seraph_Spear

Quoted for truth, because some people make me facepalm. The clockwork soldiers just have an added intelligence chip that allows them to weild underwater weapons on land, something Tyrians lack the brainpower to do.

smh… Nothing irritates me more than the “magical forcefield” that makes me unready my spear for a sword when I emerge from the water. Seriously?? Go to the trouble of making spears underwater, make the animations etc etc, rather than putting that energy into using them on land…

Every class has at least one more weapon type for underwater that we could use instead of that, and many of us would gladly trade the underwater spear for use on land.

I’m hoping for a future release of a Dervish Class with Scythes/Polearm weapons, that will also allow the use of those same weapons for a variety of classes (especially the soldier). Also, release of the Paragon class to bring about the use of Short-Spear/Javelin and shield (that can also be used by soldier & adventuring classes).
