Can we get new weapons, now that the poly mage is going to be an active pvper.
Dispell weapons.

Sure, if you can explain how the changes to dispel, the spell, affect warriors(who would use the weapon) in any consistent fashion.

Because elsewise I see you wanting a dispel weapon while nothing has changed at all.
Which is not in and of itself bad, but an idea is more likely to be shot down because it has bad reasoning than if it has good reasoning that has no practical purpose (i.e. we want it).

Im not sure what you really want me to right, but ill give it a shot

Dispel now has more limitations on it, so polys can now pvp efficiently without worrying

So by adding a dispel weapon that either has charges that u can use or simply at random like most weapons, it will cast the spell randomly when using it.

Hallucination weapons were added when necros were put in, now that polys are able, dispel weps should be as well.

I dont agree with this for 2 reasons. 1. warriors necer could dispel pollies b4 why should they now. 2. If we starting making weapos t do everything magery does then what would be the point of having magery.

To use the more spells, more effectively, more powerfully, and when ever you want... Kind of a silly question.

These weapons wouldnt dispell automatically, but follow the same system the dispel is still working on right now, you need to have a certain amount of hp for it to dispel you.

if the spell is casted at random then it wont be opd

Yes but you would be swinging a weapon much faster than the spell could be cast and if dispel drains you 30-60 hp or whatever it is plus hit damage i think that is a bit much.

True, but with prot and ra on a pvper with 300 life, i dont think wed be hitting huge hits, but maybe make it less powerful then the spell.

I haven't really played around with ra when it comes to pvp so i have no idea how little the hits would be, but it sounds pretty good if it isnt severly easy for a warrior to dispel a polly mage with the weapon. But i think Bob is still looking for something else b4 he will even look at this suggestion.

i would have to agree...

because although the dispell change doesn't directly effect warriors..
it did bring PVM mages into a pvp category of there own, a formidable one if i Guess right (b/c i cant test with no ppl to catch pvming)
but for a warrior, this is unfair to pvp against....

even tho pvms could pvp b4 against a warrior, none will go out and try fighting a warrior b/c the fear of a mage.. but with that fear nulled they need atleast 1 way to fight against a pvm....

i hate warriors and never use mine (only to hunt , but not even really cuz i use nex) sooo its not like im trying to better my self.. i think warriors are OP but unfair is still unfair , even against them (grr) lol

edit- re-reading that, i explained it horribly...
its better explained like this-

PvMs are now in a class of PvP due to recent change, which makes it possible and likely for them to kill a mage.. (just like a warrior, if a pvm traps a mage, the mage is pretty much depted even more so then a warrior v a mage in a wall)
seeing PVMs are in a class of PvP now they need to be balanced.. i think and actually kinda like the fact that they now have a chance of actually beating a mage... but they still stand above a warrior, which they need to be balanced with also

Another thing to consider here tho is that dispel weapons could be used to dispel ra on a mage giving them a major disadvantage as well.
