So, i recently saw a lurikeen that looked exactly like a chanterpet and was casting without a staff in his hands...
It caught me offguard the first time because i was looking for the chanter, and "ignored" the "pet" and i tip my hat to that person. Was a fun "huh"-moment for me
I don't play hib but i really like the style of not having to wield a staff for casting, and i could have a bit of fun with the gambling items, wearing them instead of wielding a staff.
The question is, are there really no downsides to doing this? Or will there be combat disadvantages along with it?
Focus is craftable on armor, so it seems like it would be possible without downside.
But before i gimp myself just for the lulz and spend a lot of time and money making a new weaponless temp for my caster, i wanted to ask others.
Come one knowledge gurus, i know you are lurking around here
help me out please
Tl;dr:
When building a castertemplate, is a staff needed for whatever reasons or is a completely weaponless temp with crafted focus feasible?
