Tired of coverin up some sick back aesthetics and looking like a turtle. But at the same time I don't want to conceal by badass 4 foot allagan blade.
Please make an option for Paladins to be able to hide their shield but not their sword!

If it only hides it when it's on your back sure, just don't ever introduce an 'emperor's new shield' glamour please. Paladin stance/shield lob/shield bash would look weird as hell without a shield.
If you don't want the shield to show you can try thisDRK...
It would look so silly seeing a Paladin doing a block animation with no shield...
I think he's asking for the option to hide sheathed weapons to apply to only the shield. Not for him to have an invisible shield.
From the sound of things, it appears hes using Zantetsuken as the glmaour, and the vack of a version for DRK might be keeping him tethered to PLD (well that or that he seemed to be more familiar with the Job than he is with DRK)
I think they wont add them, because RDM will have 1h sword (rapier) and this might confuse the players. We all know how much SE does not want to confuse the players when it comes to glamours.
I suppose they can implement a /shield like what they did with the /gaussbarrel for MCHs.
Since it'll be client-side only, it should not bother anyone. Not sure if it'll happen since there doesn't seem to be many complaints about a PLDs sheilds, unlike MCHs with the gausbarrell and aetheroconverter
What i use as workaround is just two gearsets for pld. One with and one without shield. When i am afk in town i use the one without shield then.
I remember hearing them say in the past that they wouldn't be adding an Emperor's New Shield item to the game because so many of PLD's animations rely on the shield. They did say they were open to having smaller shields though, like targes or something even smaller, so we'll just have to wait and see if they decide to implement them at some point.
I'd be in favor of this, but only because SE seems incapable of making shields that don't look like crap. I seriously can't find a shield that looks good.
Something along the shape of the Shire Shield or Holy Shield but with more simplistic design. A lot of the shields are shaped weird, or are too small and goofy looking with most armor sets. Maybe something with a design similar to the Baldur Shield with the shape of Shire or Holy Shield.
Honestly I'd like the Shire Shield a bit more if I could dye it, but you can't until its upgraded which isn't possible at the moment.
