    While that's awesome for people who just want certain styles, it's not the same for me.
    I'd rather use a wand cause it's smaller. Why bother having wands/scepters at all if all we ever get to use is staves?
    Just remove them & reintroduce them later with jobs that will actually utilize them like you did daggers for GLA/PLD.

    I was told that the wand/shield thing for blm/whm was basically a relic of 1.0 (because shields had their own skills tied to them or something?) and they haven't bothered removing the items, but they're only adding 2 handed staves from here on out.

    Just gonna comment here that this is entirely true. Shields were their own class called Sentinel and could only be used as a "sub class" for GLD, THM, and CNJ. During 1.0 it was removed and all the skills were rolled into GLD directly, but leaving THM and CNJ with the ability to equip shields but no associated skills.. This was all done in prep for Jobs (specifically PLD) being added.
