Warrior is only missing Focus, Short Bow, Staff and Specter, so on the expansion after EoD you have a 1 in 4 chances of getting it ; )

I figure they'll probably do a Staff next, but who knows.

Main hand Shield

Unless they do Land Trident or Spear (Which ever they don't have in water)

Since they already did Druid with a staff, Ranger and scepter seem like it would be weird. Focus I think can work with any class because a focus can be anything, books, whips, beer, you name it and there is probably already a focus for it.
Agree about shield Thief that would probably suck. Rifle Necro seems kind of weird to me in a way Shortlow/Longbow isn't.
Adding offhand sword to Ele and Engy I don't think would be good and probably not original.

I highly doubt they'll ever use underwater weapons in land when they refused to do it at the most opportune moment, the Sun Spears. I'm sure there has been an official statement on why not, but I don't care enough to look it up.

The irony is that we don't have Land Spear/Trident/Harpoon but somehow we managed to get Underwater GS cuz Gunsaber is considered a separate weapon on Bladesworn and works just fine underwater, no skills altered either.

Apparently it works one way but not the other kek

The Captain - Thief with high mobility that uses shield as a thrown projectile bouncing off multiple targets. Reuses daredevil superhero flipping animations.


The Lord - Warrior who rules with kingly (queenly) decrees with royal scepter as weapon. Mostly wanted in groups for access to banners…

oh…

wait…

I said it before ranger with dual maces for a bruiser or mace shield for a defender.

Shadow mage could be epic! Arcane sneak. Darkness Infiltrator.

Now that I think about it more, focus might have made more sense for that. Imagine a thief with mainhand dagger and Binding of Ipos!

I don't know why everyone's hating on thief scepter. There's a lot of potential there.

I'm not hating. It was just my way of pointing out that there's not really any combination that would not work. The only weapons i honestly would not expect to happen in the future would be the underwater ones (and even those not because they would "not work", but because Anet seems to have forgotten there even is something like underwater content).

A lot of RPGs have Bandit type classes that use shield and 1h weapon~ hell Dark Souls Thief starts with dagger and shield. Thief is a bad example for this thread in general since... they're Thieves. They will pick up literally anything they can find and use it as a weapon, including a chair.  Which happens to be a shield skin. 

Not saying I want a shield spec but honestly it's intensely ironic Thief has some of the least weapon access when it should have the most.

Scepter warrior would just be Sailor Moon, which actually I'd expect from Anet at this point~ with the brightest most blinding effects possible with their adrenaline bar transformation skill.
