Idea: to add a possibility to equip book in hands (wield it). Lets it would increase effectiveness of magic (less fail chance, more damage & etc).. May be also give books some properties, like normal items. So there would be not only mages with staffs in their hands, but also mages with books %)

Re: [suggestion] book as an equipment
This way books would have to add crazy amounts of damage to skills, otherwise i can't imagine istaris not wearing +10 mana staves.
Re: [suggestion] book as an equipment
Yep. And its kinda boring when all magic users using the same stick More diversity is nice

Re: [suggestion] book as an equipment
I agree with you, think it would be playable if those books gave +6 or +7 mana and damage boost, then mages could choose between defense and offense. Dont know though how basic books could be given all those bonuses- only way that comes to my mind is to allow to create randarts from them.
Re: [suggestion] book as an equipment
Yep, it would be fun to have two types mages equiment:
1) mage staff which gives a lot of mana
2) magic book which gives bonus to damage, but doesn't give any additional mana
It would create more diversity in builds and kinds of mages Some people would go with low mana pool and a lot of damage, some with mana to cast loads of spell with mediocre damage.
