I seem to recall the statement that all the epics would be one-handed weapons, which I dearly hope is still true as 2-handed staves for mages are just a waste.
I call bullshit on this one. Given the itemization and spells created for coercers in the last three expansions there is either no developer or mechanics person who plays one, or they have never played one to the point of raiding with one (which is what you need to get the fabled/epic items). They haven't a clue how the class is played, either in theory or as a result of the poor mechanics decisions. I predict the coercer epic will be as useful as the set bonuses on the coercer T8 fabled set (i.e. not at all).
QFE, coercers got fucked on their 65/80 spells and VP class loot effects and set bonus's....fucking retarded. (ok arms and forearms are good, but thats about it)
PS, they better be unique, as cool as a water sprinkler would be to see, it just doesnt belong in eq2 since dirge's and mystics rez now =p

Yea, I definitely agree with these sentiments. The dev quote to which the above poster refers implies that they actually have devs that have a clue about how each class works when, in reality, they've demonstrated repeatedly how clueless they are about certain classes (i.e. coercer, ranger).
