Since launch, light elf was the only class to get a staff

Race*

Since launch insaw plenty of D elf and humans doing the quest and getting the staff, after restart today its all backwards

[Dorsch]

I made all of the races before patch

Orc had butcher sword

Human had a sword or wand

Dark elf had a sword or dagger

Dwarf had a hammer

Light elf had a staff or sword

People probably made the light elf and did the quest for it and transfered because thats exactly what I did

Obvisously thats not how it supposed to be, and stil they didnt fix it so far?

[Dorsch]

I agree, its pretty dumb that each race didnt get a sword blunt dagger bow or staff to choose from

They are all magic weapons though if you look at the stats.  Like the homunculus sword

This is why you make another char for the quest to get a staff and trade to the darkelf...

Eldritch dagger is just as good as the staff, as far as M. Atk. is concerned.

In Lineage 2, a mage weapon is not neccessarily a staff.

In later chronicles, they introduced the concept of 2 handed mage weapons having a higher m atk than 1 handed mage weapons, and it looks like they kept that in Classic, so the top mage weapons will usually be 2 handed staffs, but that doesn't mean only staffs are mage weapons. There are daggers, one-handed swords, one-handed blunts and two-handed blunts(staffs are not a separate subcategory, those are two-handed blunts as well) that are mage weapons.

That's kind of irrelevant now without the SA system, because that is what made a weapon fighter or mage weapon, but in the end, you only lose 1 m atk when using the dagger instead of the staff, but you can use shields with it, so that's the trade-off. Simply having a staff does not give you any benefits over having a dagger with the same m atk.

Somewhy, I can't edit my previous post, but the thing I meant to say was 'Wand' and not 'Staff', my bad. The staff indeed has different stats.
