I don't know about other servers, but in windia I hardly ever see skeles full which is the only holy weak mob that a bishop actually has an advantage at, weakness wise, where a strong arch mage can still kill in 2 hits, even one, if they're a high enough level, where as most other classes are lucky if they can kill 1 in 2 hits. So it does indeed suck that you may not get elemental wands but your class is still good without them Bishops might be considered better but really there's always one section of a class that stands out as "better" than the others despite the fact that they're all good in their own ways.
You have to understand why these weapons are so important to archmages. They revolutionize not training for archmages, but bossing. They're still not as strong as NL with apples and sharp eyes so the NLs still hold their specialty of 1v1 damage. These weapons are not taking away the high 1v1 damage of heroes, BMs and NLs. They're not even equalizing the damage of archmages at bossing versus other jobs. It just makes them less suck at bosses.
Imagine how many bandits would be pissed if the str shields (dragon khanjars) didn't give any weapon bonus. 18atk is worth a lot to them. 125% boost in damage is a lot to archmages.
