Hey, i am sorry i forgot who initially suggested this so please take credit if you read this
So right now hybrids are way to go as there is no real disadvantage in doing so.
The idea is to put a WPF requirement on all weapons in addition to their current requirement.
Then you put those either in tiers or just go from 0 to i don't know 145? WPF or more on the highest tier weapons.
That will benefit pure builds, ranged and melee as they will be able to use the best weapons while hybrids will use lower tier weapons for the benefit of using multiple types of weapons.
It would need some fine tuning to get sweet spots for the tiers but we have a some people here who like doing the math for that ;)
It would encourage people to use all weapons and not just the best ones.
Also it will nerf pure str builds as they will lack the wpf requirement for the highest tier weapons while pure agi builds lack the damage output.
Just throwing it out there as there was no topic about it yet and i'd like to see this discussed.
