Lack of 2nd weapon slot items (scabbards ) for 2h melee (staves too) hurt it s build diversity.

I`m for challenging game, this is what keep us going, but there is different between challenging and destroy completely some builds, just to nerf others.
And this is what always happen in the end.

What s your point about my first post tho, because I have not asked to nerf anything.

I asked GGG to permit 2h to get a 2nd item on weapons slot so they can get new and interesting mods for 2h like every other weapon types.

I even specified that those mods should not be dps oriented but defensive ones.

A. If we're talking about "fairness", rangers can also have 2x6L and still have the secondary item in their off-hand. Ok... I can see it. From a "fairness" point of view, there's no reason to not go deeper into this suggestion. I could upvote it.

B: If we're talking about "need", average 2H builds may seem underpowered if compared with ranged-caster alternatives, or maybe they have less variety of builds that can compete with the mentioned alternatives. But this doesn't mean that buffing them is the soultion. In any case, the solution would be more variety, not more powercreep. As this is -all forever will be -mostly about subjective impressions, I wouldn't upvote nor downvote the suggestion.

C: If we're talking about "realism and opportunity"... there's not much to say, as someone stated before me, an archer doesn't always have both hands on the bow, not need them both to hold it. Anyway, I see quiver mods not as the quiver itself, but as the arrows you're firing. In other words: they DO have an impact on what's happening on the battlefield. But a scabbard has zero implication on the battle, you can hit harder with better arrows but won't hit harder just for having a finely-decorated or a more resistant scabbard. So from a "realistic" point of view, it's a clear downvote.

Choose your reasoning xD
