More the one type of weapon

Why is it only warriors can have more then one type of weapon? Different weapons do different types of damage. Would be useful if other classes had at least one other damage type of weapon they can use.

Hey good idea.

To start with we were thinking of adding spears as something for rangers and rogues and also adding things like throwing knives/axes.

If you have any thoughts on other weapons please post them.

I love this idea. Ranged attack for rogue. Knives and axes. good good good.
How about a garrote for sneak attack hard to use but mega dmg. Poison crossbow anyone. Maybe some type of grenade. Fire pot, ice pot or stun
Warrior could use spears, javelin or axes.

yes druids should be able to use other Blunts. open all blunts to druids and make the wood ones give a druid bonus for using. or a penalty for using metalic blunt.

Well for weapons would be nice if everyone could use a blunt weapon and be trained in it . Also if there could just be one weapon type other them main u can train in.
For ideas for weapons well a sap would be a great addition.

Hey what is a sap?

Crowed control weapon that u can usually use to knock out someone for like 30 or 60 sec
Does no dmg just stuns really

And usually a sap only works on one npc at a time and usually can't be target of that npc to use it on them

There have been many good suggestions listed above for other classes, but I'll focus on the druid since thats a rather tough class when it comes to duel wielding (and so is the mage).

Perhaps druids/mages could branch off into light/dark magic. This would introduce a whole new aspect of gameplay. A lengthy quest would be needed to be able to practice the magic, and in order to cast light/dark magic spells you would need a shield of light or a shield of darkness. These would be your secondary weapon/shield, and would offer new spells which is much more suitable for a druid or mage rather then a second weapon. The only issue with this is that it would require the developers to come up with some new spells for dark/light magic - but I do feel like it would do a lot for the game if you introduced a split that caused diversion in the spell branch. Just brainstorming of course.
