I wanted to talk about possible new things that classes may get prior to and during second awakening. The first build I wanted to cover was warrior
Before second awakening warriors will already have a few rare or legendary weapons that only they can use, on awakening it would make sense for them to receive a 4th weapon slot and access to artisan weapons
As for artisan weapons, I feel they could be similar to their namesake, allowing warriors to create their own weapons by mixing and matching different parts
Each part( grip, blade, body,etc) would have a skill associated with it which will be usable in the artisan weapon
Artisan weapons should be on equal ground with strength weapons and arcanium ones, being a perfect middle ground with the status effects of arcanium weapons and the raw damage of strength weapons
Yea something like that, you can have a shield or a dagger for mobility with 3 slots dedicated for your main weapons
4 weapons all for attacking will just burden the player, not to mention some attacks will share cool-downs.
Maybe they will gain the ability to use two weapons at a time? Like shooting both staff’s piercing gale and bow’s rain of arrows at the same time, or launching devastate while in process of spiraling fury? Im not talking about separate keybinds for these, just warriors won’t care anymore about endlag and will be able to use skills after switching weapon while previous weapon’s skill is still going
Being able to simultaneously use skills is wayyy too Op
But being able to duel wield weapons with skills being mixed according to your liking is actually not bad and could be what 2nd awakening gives you
This weapon type, artisan, is actually worth waiting, and many theories can be created about it. Mixing and matching different parts of weapons could be very interesting and useful, imagine attaching a dagger to the halberd’s polearm, the nevermiss op dagger. But won’t created weapons cause tremendous lags?
You can create restrictions so that you can’t attach a bow to sword or something like that, and each Artisan weapon has to be made of weapons of same rarity and somewhat similar functions or something like that
Artisan weapons should not be a part of the awakening, thats true. Imagine Argos’ weaponry being warlord’s awakening. And yet another aura is just stupid to add.
