Now, i always wondered why we have just a weapon and no shield. This will probably counter staves, 2 handed swords, and flutes. If we could add a shield (for the sake of the higher levels) it would add block, health, critical or something of that nature to boost the power of the wizard. You could then buff 2 handed swords, flutes, and staves, that can't equip the shields, so it all balances out.

The reason, I believe, is because all the wizards are casting spells and blocking with magic shields. Regular shields are not needed, because no one is dealing physical damage (some have animations that look like it, but it is still magic damage).

Nice idea! Im sure this is mentioned somewhere else, but it isnt bad to bring up an old topic every once in a while! Graphics for how it might look would be tough. i think the first step would be to add weapons when your on a mount. :P

I dunno.... I too have been thinking about why we don't have shields. Of course wizards don't need actual shields, but they don't need swords either. If we can't have shields, why not give us something us else? i.e. spellbooks, another wand/sword, or some other wizardly thing.
Sorry, i get what everyone is saying that we are kind of pushing it, so would a small book be better for you? It could contain some spells, and maybe for the higher levels, contain some critical block.

Actually, thats a VERY good idea. Since we are indeed wizards and witches, we should acrtually have spell books that show up on out characters! Even for the lower levels you could add health boosts along with damage and resist boosts. As you get to a higher level, you could add crit, block, etc. boosts.
