Runesword 3d5 8lbs

It would be a final tier weapon type for mages. Similar Depth/Rarities as Blade of chaos, Scythe of Slicing, Mace of Disruption. All the final tier weapons are fairly heavy, and it would be nice to not use Long Swords or something as a mage. It feels kind of silly for a endgame mage to be using a base weapon type.

Swords? Mages should use staves no?

Oh sure that makes sense. Then we have another endgame blunt weapon too. Make it easier for priests to avoid pointy penalty
So its a Wizardstaff? 2d7 at 13 pounds?
