I don't get why people hate wand and shield so much. Just release them together with stats that would equal a staff in stats (maybe a little less to balance the slightly better speed of wands).

If they gonna keep the wands/shields they should resurrect the dagger/shield for gld/pld. lol
I personally like weapon an shield for BLM and WHM. Here is hoping that the new crystal tower weapons will be wand/scepter and shield/buckler.
I don't like them because it means to get my best weapon I now need to rely on two RNG drops from Coil rather than 1. I say two because i135 1H weapon with i115 shield would probably be less DPS than i130 2H weapon.
I wouldn't mind for lower tier items, IE poetics or primal stuff. Though I'd rather not require a sand + oil to upgrade a weapon when other DPS jobs only require a sand.
They could fix those issues by having T13 or whatever always drop the shield when the 1H weapon drops and have the tomestone versions be upgraded together with a single sand.
sword/board WHM with vit gear in PvP is fun.
