most classes have weapons that are locked to them anyway. a legionnaire could have all the throwing WP in thr world but they can still only use cts, likewise a master peltast could only use some of the worst swords available (unless s/he owns a fell edge etc). it would not be as OP as it's being made out to be, but i still think it is a little unbalanced.
Yo Tsuki, bring me in an Illustrious so I can chop stuff on my Master Peltast.
Mr. Archer Dude, I'm going to bring you a Mjolnir to bash stuff with.
Oh, don't forget to bring a bow in for the Commando over there!
Hehe, the possibilities are endless. Like last time this idea came up, I'll say this seems unbalanced for reasons completely unrelated to the above.
PS - If your argument is that the price would be very, very large, there are two things you should consider. One, if it is too high what is the point of even adding it if only one or two players will ever be able to truly get it? Two, if it is at a moderately high price, remember what happened with every other item that was ever put to be "pretty high" (special legendary drops excluded, as I don't think we'll be looting WPF
).
