There should be some way a mage can use a staff while casting, shit its always been done in most fantasy novels, like lords of the rings or anything, even wands in harry potter. it would probably put a little twist on things if you wanted to fizzle a flamestrike, tweaking in a little staff damage or something. It would be much better leik that ;o

With insta-hit you can instantly equip a weapon and hit your target as soon as its in your hand (Assuming you didn't punch the target before hand). That's why this time period is the best. If you fizzle a flame strike, you can equip your halberd or any weapon and go in for the hit instantly.

No, it really wouldn't be better 'leik' that.

Yea, this would be entirely inaccurate.

The razor macro for arm disarm is pretty fast.

You can use a magic gnarled staff to cast spells, mage or not.
