Throw (melee weapons become projectiles instead of unnecessary additional weapon types)

i don't know about you guys but throwing a huge two hand mace as a boomerang sounds sick!

So it seems like the devs totally used this suggestion. Cool.

So, onto another idea...

How about a generic Throw support gem for single target melee attacks?

You'd conjure an ethereal form of your weapon that is thrown forward but doesn't boomerang back, so that Spectral Throw is unique. It'd be a remote skill (traps, mines, totems) support for melee builds, which are currently nonexistent.

• Throw

im totally gonna make a darth vader build with weapon throw 2handed staff if that works
