All younger water priests require all of their hands to channel their spells efficiently in combat. During the times of war this naturally leaves you very vulnerable to melee attacks if an opponent gets too close alive. With the help of the water templars, especially ones from the Preceptors branch, many water priests have studied ways of using plate armours and shields while channeling in combat. They have developed a way to attune their armanents with elemental mana while channeling so that they serve as suitable conduits for the elemental energy. Although this process allows them only to use shields as using a weapon would require too great focus that channeling while swinging a weapon would be impossible. Also even that the armanents are attuned for the elemental mana a water priest still requires at least one free hand to be able to manipulate elemental mana correctly. Eventhough water priests themself are unable to use weapons in combat if they wish to channel priests that are skilled in elemental warfare are able to attune weapons of their allies with elemental mana so that they will be use them in combat and still cast spells, considering their spell casting rituals allows it.
