It doesn’t matter if they get tailored weapons or not.
I admit I was exaggerating when I said “barred”, but it is still less options for warrior builds and thus less diversity
And we are asking for more- a style of play that uses less weapons.
Like obviously you do not find this enticing and enjoy running 3 weapons. good for you.
What we are ultimately asking for is an option to run less than 3 weapons because we think it would be cool and would enjoy that. There are obviously a portion of people that find this enticing, otherwise there wouldn’t be people asking for it like the discussion I made or this suggestion. just look at the poll and you can see 79% of weapon users would rather run build with less than 3 weapons.
Its like us asking for a burger and u going but we have burgers at home and it’s a BLT sandwich
A key factor here that we do NOT know is this…
How many of those are Conjurers, Warlords, Knights, or Warriors?
I guarantee that the majority of warriors aren’t the ones that are going to opt for less weapons. However, if they want to, then that’s their choice. At best they might get access to their weapons ultimate art a bit earlier, but they have so many stat points that it hardly matters for the first 4 skills (I believe it’s 4 before the ultimate art).
Now for hybrids, yeah, if I played a weapon hybrid I would find it enticing to run fewer weapons. When your stat points are already limited, and you have other potential options for attacks (knights will eventually get spirit weapons). Then, and only then, would I find it completely reasonable to actually opt for running fewer weapons. Hybrids can fall back onto something else, and that’s imo what this suggestion is mainly for or promoting. By the end of the game I can see warriors running 3 legendary weapons with full skills (assuming there is no restriction on them) while Hybrids can opt to get a potential full skill legendary weapon at the cost of 2 weapon slots. They would of course, in the case of conjurer, still have their 2 magics (2nd awakening) to fall back on.
Yes the less requirements option in the majority, probably due to the reasons you noted. But it is in no way a close majority.
There is still 42% of people who would want to use this mechanic for something other than “my class lacks stat points but I wanna use the bis weapon”
