Spell casters using a bow

Anyone else thinks it's dumb to use a soulrend with the bow equipped to get the maximum DPS? Although I am not against total freedom of choice, I find it silly that SPELL users benefit more from a BOW than for example a wand.

They just copy the most successful ARPG out there. In Diablo 3 the wizard's solution for more DPS is also a bigger axe.

Freedom of choice means you can either use a bow or a wand and still do well. Might want to start learning how to think.

Don't think you know what unnecessary DPS is do you? Probably not get back to me when you do.

The only reason it is silly: quivers.
With a 2h staff no quiver to add some res-life-crit.

So yea it is stupid.

I've heard casting from a bow will be disallowed in a future patch, is this mistaken?

If not, problem sort of solved.

that makes no sense


but I do agree, there's something thematically off about the best option for a pure caster is often a bow.

It means poor itemization for staves really, is all.
