Default Casterweapon (no wand or staff)

I searched the index and could only find the option to turn visibility off for weapons, so if this has been posted before, I'm sorry.

I would love to see my caster "not" wielding a staff or wand but be just as powerfull so why not a glove like casterweapon like in Stargate.

I would have entered the Design-a-weapon contest but I'm terrible at drawing hands.

so ppl start designing plz.

That "hand device" is actually called a focus, and we already have it.

We just don't have a focus that look like that.

I SO want one of those when the Stargate MMO goes live.

That weapon, however, just kinda flings people around. The closest mechanic in GW would be knockdown. A weapons that knocks people down would be way out of balance (army of Wanderlust....good times). It also does that "brain ribbon" thing but they have to be in close for that and it is primarily used for torture. I suppose it could be some kind of degen, though. I degen weapon might not be as badly out of balance as continuous knockdown. hmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

I don't mean as an offhand item but as a primary weapon

And not with the same attackpower as in Stargate but with the normal attack as a wand just not the wand skin.

Just thought it might be cool shooting fireballs from your hands.

Maybe someone should join the design a weapon contest and convince the devs with some artwork...not to say I am the greatest but I am working on some ideas and this one is interesting too...I might give it a shot.

This won't happen because it would require new animations for every single profession.

I'd like to see knuckles for smiting monks.

The bare handed animation animation is still there (you can see many NPC folks using it)

So it just would be making it use smiting attribute.
