    Suggestion for the Ice Staff (new telethon stretch goal reward)

    Make it out of pure ice, like the spear thrown by the Night King in Game of Thrones.

    Maybe even something like this...

    You come up with some great ideas, Baron. I'm surprised Portalarium hasn't snatched you up as an ideas man.

    This staff idea would be awesome! Make it a 100k reward!

    I love the look of that weapon. I really would have loved a little bit of having the ability to make weapons of ice or weapons of fire etc for those who don't want to change out their build as much. Like Ice mages can switch out to a weapon of fire but we didn't really go that way with this game at all. You have to decide to just be everything to tackle the different types of mobs. There is not that much for anyone to specialize in and if they did, there is not much benefit or reward to it, plus they would die if they meet a mob that needs them to use fire if they are all ice ;).

    I'm having difficulty imagining a worse material from which to craft a bow...

    At least the ooze is stretchy. The moment you pull the string on the ice bow you'll end up with a bunch of tiny ice shards that I suppose you could pick up and throw at your target. I'm not looking forward to weaponized confetti...

    Nice I agree thats a great looking concept, but they need to make 2h staff worth using. 2x wands are still pretty powerful arnt they (easy to get +14-16)?

    Been a while since I played my mage toon but I remember it was pretty hard to give up the x2 + 16s

    If we don't reach this goal, and I also want that ice elemental statue (I missed summer and the "obsidian" telethon, but I'm not into these things, I'm into water and ice and Air and and Moon)
    i will sit in my house crying until it stops to snow through my roof.

    I don't think we've ever had an obsidian telethon, have we?

    I like this so much. The one you linked looks good, i'd also be pumped for a throwback UO solid glowing ice staff.
