<p>Has anyone seen any decent throwing weapons for Swashys in SF?</p><p>I've yet to see one. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" /></p>

<p>Throwing items always seem to get tossed on the backburner, every expansion.  Seems the devs often forget that we rouges tend to chuck things as opposed to using the bow and arrow.  Also, is it a little too much to ask for to get some better looking throwing knifes every so often?  I've been chucking the exact same knives from 1-86.  I know, there's other throwing items that have some different glow effects, but it looks like my character's chucking radioactive cow pies at the enemy, and that's not very swash-like.</p>

<p>How about they make throwing weapons (+STR) to be "fighter only" and bows (+AGI) to be "scout only". Then give all fighters a combat art called "Mighty Heave" with they can use for pulling encounters.</p><p>Then while they are at it, they can then go back to the drawing board and do something with our useless Storm of Steel combat <em>f</em>art.</p>

<p>Thing is, I like throwing weapons.  They fit my image as a swashy quite nicely, and I wouldn't trade my throwing knives in for one of those bulky bows.  Really, I'd preffer that they just man up and add some more throwing weapons into the game.  Heck, they rarely change the appearance anyways, so all they have to do is change the stats and damage and add it to someone's loot table.</p>

<p>There are at least two 9 second delay satchels with bonus/potency and I think a 6 second delay one also.</p>

<p>I have been complaining about throwing weapons for years and while there are some decent ones for bonus/potency they have strength not agi (the ones I have seen).</p><p>There are tons of decent bows and many have nice procs or give free ammo. Give us rogues some loving for a change rather than making us the runt of the scout litter.</p>
