I love the swashbuckling high risk high reward gameplay or outlaw.
One thing I would really love to see in the new talent system is the option to weild shields.
I don’t know how it would work so I don’t have any implementation suggestions but flavour wise I think it could be a cool mix up.
It could be interesting for sure but I don’t really think they would know how to implement it.
Look at what happened to gladiator stance. They gave up on it instantly.
vanilla artwork showed rogues using a buckler. it was never implemented though. I honestly wouldn’t mind outlaw having the ability to use a 2h sword.
I feel like that would be a Survival Hunter. I think the Rogue fantasy is spot on. Nor do I want Blizzard trying to juggle more things than they are capable of balancing.
I swear I have a vague memory of my very first character, which was a rogue, equipping a sword and wooden buckler.
using a 2h or a shield would make it like survival?
survival IS NOT A MELEE spec, it’s a mid-ranged spec that focuses on bombs(mostlly), a 2h outlaw would still be very much melee.
I honestly don’t care, it would just look badass
