Weapons and block
Would anyone else agree that it'd be more fair if certain weapons had a block percentage as well? This way every class with any weapon could utilize the block from endurance, making it an all around more useful stat. Not to mention it'd make for more viable tanking builds. The block doesn't have to be significant, something like 1% block or 2% block, depending on the weapon for balance. It'd just have to be enough so that getting endurance on your shieldless character wouldn't be a complete waste.

Hm, I think that would be fair, since shield-users not only get block, but a lot of extra defense too. D:

I think that would be completely fair. But would it be for every weapon? Or just for Fighter weapons?

Every weapon. I mean, physically it'd be possible for a staff to block an attack once in a while at least. A two hand sword or axe should be capable of it too, along with bows and cross bows. I'm not sure what to think about cleric weapons and one handed swords though, it'd add some more spice to tanking for sure though.

Well, it should be. After all a Staff/Wand is magical and we all know that magic is stronger than steel. :3
But yeah, that would be nice. It would definitely help out Mages no matter how big or small it is.

I'm pretty they're both tempered with the same steel. Afterall, Karls makes everything.

Well I think archer weapons are a different thing entirely. I don't think any archer would try to block with their bow or crossbow. They're hardly designed for that.
But otherwise I do agree fully. As it is now, the blocking is strictly limited to clerics and 1h sword fighters, and as it completely negates damage once it kicks in, it's pretty unfair to other characters to not have such an option. Especially the less rigid ones.
