battlestance & Victorypose feedback

Ive noticed these two emotes were meant to be performed while already having your weapon drawn. When performed without the weapon drawn they end abruptly.

It would be nice if SE could make it so these two emotes forced your character to remain in the weapon-ready stance when the emote animation completes.

Where do you even get these emotes? They're not in my list.

You'll get them while progressing in the main story :) !

I agree the transitions are a bit sloppy, I enjoy them enough to ignore it though.

I would love it if the battle stance emote was persistent, especially for the DRK for *cough* reasons.

Does victory pose replace the old emote done when duties are completed? Because it should...

I agree totally with the last two statements... especially about wanting the battle stance to be persistant xD

Aww.. i was hoping that these were a toggle pose like /change pose, i miss xi in that all the different races had different battle stances, elvaan held everything in a refined "better than you" kind of way, mithra crouched like they were about to pounce ect

XD i am still looking forward to unlocking these but i suppose that I will have to remain jealous of the azure dragoon in the 50 quest standing like an elvaan and looking better than us. Maybe someday..

I second this.

I'd also like if they had a second option after "skip all previously viewed cutscenes" to exclude the victory cutscene at the end of a dungeon. Every new patch reminds me how much I miss it.

As for the actual motions, I love the new /bstance and /vpose, I have them in a macro that spams their motions over and over. My boyfriend is quite sick of watching my WHM twirl around.

Please no...they are both horribly overdone and way to try-hard. Why does my whm make a little dance and my AST acts all slutty with her cards...off to the corner to rot and never see the daylight again.

I was hoping for another position change with drawn weapon tbh but this....no thanks. If they are replacing the end scene at some point, I will be glad that I always skip that scene.

So you already skip that scene but you're against an alteration to it? Riiiight...

New suggestion though;

Let us customize which emote we do during the Duty Complete scene, so we can pick /cheer, /happy, /vpose, etc. It's entirely up to each individual what they pick.

I love em. I macro'd /bstance into my gearchange macro:

/gearset change 1
/ac "Fists of Fire"
/wait 5
/bstance

Having done the emotes on every class, the only ones that don't look good are the brd ones in my opinion. All the other classes get some interesting animations but the brd ones? Ugh.

Yes please, make them different. Right now SMN's poses feel like the fit SCH better and look a little outta place on SMN

I think it would be good if there was a toggle in the menu to allow using the new victory pose in the duty complete scene, because they're quite cool (except bard, I saw that one and was like... wut...). If that's too complicated to implement, then I'll just imagine it... that's fine...

In my own opinion, playing a female character all the poses are way too feminine. I know that sounds obvious, but my character isn't into magical girl twirls. She would rather look like a badass. Even the DRG back flip has you land with a "hey boys" twirl <_<

The Ninja /vpose is so sassy. I love it.

They're a little too Power Rangery for me. I like DRG's because it's Zidane's victory dance when he's wielding a Thief Sword.

can we please get some audio versions for them? its clear that the some of the emotes show my character laughing or doing a battle cry. it feels silly when they make little noise. (look at black mage and warrior /vpose and /bpose for examples)

Black mage gives us shantottos Oooohohoho laugh pose, need a lala to make a vid and share it, so perfect XD especially since most xiv players have met her atleast once.. the little sadist rubbed off on us..

Dark Knight is fittingly Cloud-esque
Warrior reminds me of Astaroth from soul calibur
Astrologian reminds me of Viola who is also from soul calibur
White mage is just so cool looking, love the staff spinning~
Dragoon is great~ as is Paladin

I want these on all my characters T^T why do they have to be tied to the story? I don't usually say this but give them to me now!
*self pity party table for one*

Great poses, wish they were on a loop though so I can idle with my MNK on top of a mountain looking all training mode-like.

I love both Bard ones. Some people don't but......whatever

Especially the /battlestance. That bow makes me so happy.

I agree on the weapon stance thing, it should keep us in stance as the change to "off stance" is very abrupt.

I also agree that some of them need sound effects, like the BLM's laugh.

And finally, they're all very adorable on a lala, but the female SMN one feels so bad and out of place, and clips a lot with gear. I'd like that one to be changed to remove the kneeling down or change it to something else.

My favourites on the lala are the MCH one (that tiny "pew"!) and the DRG one with the tiny backflip and final pose. The War battlestance one doesn't work that well with lalas though, their tiny arms make it so that they struggle to get the axe over their heads, lol.

I am disappointed that the Miner/Bot/Fisher are all the same as the PLD....

I think the emotes prove that they clearly love some classes more than others lol

That's because all crafter and gather classes uses the GLA/PLD animations for their weapon stances.

I'd have been happier with the harp being used... Maybe plant the bow in the ground, pull out the harp, play something and take a bow...

The animations we got, I think, would be better suited to a Dancer Job... I'm probably just going to perpetually be disappointed by Bard... Bow Mage... Very few Songs... Still no customizable Harp... Bleh...

Yeah I was not happy with Bard's -__- But ya know what, that's okay. Ive decided to stop maining it since they like to crap on bard every chance they get lately.

I echo the sentiments of the person above...

As a person who enjoys playing the current bard and like the emote they got, I await the future patch in which SE craps on me then.

just got the / victory emote . love it :D

I am loving them, I had a feeling DRKs would be exactly as I imagined for vpose. Blackmage reminds me of a certain person from Dissidia but I may be wrong, never progressed far in 11 to see much of her. Monk and Ninja are enjoyable the rest are cool but not much excitment for me in em.

Can anyone confirm if the poses vary between race and/or gender. I feel like the Monk one I saw on a friends female Au Ra was differnet than mine.

I haven't seen male ones yet (somehow) but I'm pretty sure race doesn't factor into it as a female lala had the same poses as my Au Ra does...just smaller. :p

Yes it only looks fit only for SCH. SMN need something different.

Also I find the female version of the victory pose rather...disappointing? Why does it look like my female miqote has a hard time spinning that big sword around while standing stiff as a board,, and male ones look like their having a grand ol'time spinning it with ease and with a wider more comfortable stance? Plz change the motion to match males. It looks really weak for the other gender. -_-

offtopic question:
