Why aren't Orbs ki weapons? Make it so!

Seriously, why can't I hold an orb and still be in stance? It's a little globe, not a Greataxe.

Because Monks aren't known for fighting with "little globes", unless you're watching Shaolin Soccer (with its collection of balls).

Edit: I'm hoping for Ki ladders or Ki umbrellas one of these days!!!

Because it's a special caster item that Monks don't train to use.

A better question would be why weapons all Monks specifically do train for are not Ki weapons, like Daggers, Hand Axes, and Clubs.

[Vellrad]

Because they aren't weapons at all.
They're shields.

[Therrias]

Because they aren't weapons at all.
They're shields.

Shields are also weapons.
Unless they're orbs.

[Uska]

Lots of things aren't KI weapons and somethings that shouldn't be are now lets not add to that list.

Actually their not at least anything that says "requires shield" or "when a shields equipped" doesn't think they are...not sure if this is WAI or not...I hope its a bug considering their supposed to be an "Arcane Shield"
