Off-hand weapons...can we have 'em?

[Jobeto-Rin]

Ti's it's said, that an arguments validity, toys with becoming void,

when targeting points coined unobjectively. Oh boy....
.but...I have to try anyway!

SE we have an off-hand slot; Excluding Marauder and Lancer, the classes I've played have only used shields and secondary gathering/crafting items for that placeholder.

Are there plans to use weapons for it?

Because personally (yeah here it is), I don't see why I can't have a bow/dagger in my off-hand slot and use it accordingly.

Would it really break this system if we had secondary weapons that are exclusive to our main class and another class, but limited to the latter to keep the importance in the main class?....e.g. (A bow that requires you be an archer to utilize BUT can be used only in the secondary slot by another class...Gladiator/Conjurer...etc...

I'm all up for it, but am I the only one?

I really really hope not.

Back to work!

not agree, a weapon must be tied to a single job, even if it quieted a double weapon, I find the current system good and do not change it in this manner, rather than add jobs that are users of a double weapon.

I just want some Glad dual wielding Swords up in here, considering they still show swords as able to be dual wielded in the Equipment menu but give you some message about "affinity not being high enough".

Honestly, that would be kool, but it woudnt work with the armory system.
I see SE creating a dual weild trait that when equipped, your class can use two 1H weapons from the same class.

It would be very cool if we had a trait from an advanced job that allows us to use two 1H weapons, but at the same time I could see this becoming a problem since marauder, lancer, and archer all use two handed weapons, pugilist already uses two weapons, all that leaves is gladiator :\

This reminds me of Fire Emblem...

Why not having a job, like Pirate, or to talk about Final Fantasy, a Viking that uses two axes? That would be awesome!

I want my dual wield thief back lol.

[MystinaValeth]

Dual wielding axes would be pretty cool
A ninja class that can dual wield and throw daggers would be awesome though

I would love to have the offhand be used for something, dont make it into a new class. I wouldnt mind it being a Job, Eg unlock "Ninja" or "Thief" w/e and it gives you the affinity to equip secondary weapon (as if you try now, it says you dont have the affinity, so they have plans i'd imagine).

I see...

Other than the 1 weapon to 1 class notion,

I'm unable to understand how the system would be broken.

If our off-hand was used as a means for weapon diversity,

Couldn't unique weapons befit it, befittingly?

Situation wise, if an archers bow is totally unacceptable,
Ultimately up to SE if it is to remain as such...
Does that mean an alternate of anything, short of the imagination, wouldn't work?

Like a boomerang? I think someone mentioned having 1, for thief tho...
