The designation of "spell tome" is meaningless. They don't function differently from any other magic weapon. I'm not saying that these are bad ideas, but the premise is strange to me. It's not as though there's a "spell tome" subclass.

That is true although they, at least to me, feel different in some way (cant put my finger on it). I personaly consider Spell Tomes only a Subclass and mainly came up with these to make Spell Tomes only runes more bearable and exiting instead of using all the same weapons because there are next to no options.

There have been people who have played "spellbook only" challenges. It's definitely quite tough, considering there are hardly any in PHM. The HM options are quite spread out too, and the challenge basically ends at Fishron since there aren't any other spellbooks worth using after Razorblade Typhoon (other than Lunar Flare, but then the challenge is literally over).



That aside, this idea is quite cool! Hoping for a bit more variety in the attacks, but I think this is an interesting concept.
