Can you please do something about SAGEs battle stance?

I know healers have a bunch of issues but I have been playing sage now for DSR and the battlestance while having weapons drawn just throws me off. There are tiny safespots everywhere in this ultimate but sages battlestance is so damn wide that it makes me feel unsafe. It is like sage sat on a horse for 24 hours and their legs just got stuck like that. I undraw whenever I can to get a normal stance with their legs together. Im not even asking for much just make their legs a little bit closer. It is especially akward since healers spend 98% of their time casting their damagespell which means that pose is CONSTANT.

Yeah, no, we can't have every job just T-posing around. If you get stressed out over a non-existing hitbox that's a you problem that will go away in time. There's no hit area for your character model, it's just the exact single point you are standing on. It's all misleading if that's how you are visualizing it.

Just get that plugin that shows a dot exactly in the middle of your targeting circle ;)

I think it’s just one of those things that everybody get used to eventually. There are others jobs that in my opinion, are the worst offender in this regard, namingly WAR, DRG, BLM, & NIN. All these are amongst the oldest jobs in the game.

It helps to know that my camera are always centered on my character’s hitbox though, regardless of whatever my character’s doing.

By why do that when we could just... have all player models' battle stances stand balanced on narrow caster wheel that glides along the floor? Then we'd have visual clarity without breaking the sacrosanct and wholly reasonable ToA / ToS.

I am not stressed, it just looks very bad tbh, perhaps I wrote it in a more distressed version than what it really is.

Yep, I think DRK is especially bad too but DRK have a rotation, sage does not. :/

And break ToS? Id never dare.

lol while i find blm funny with their back breaking limbo stance

I think SGE's sprint animation is in more dire need of fixing than their idle, quite frankly

I wish our characters just natively had an option to put a small light on the ground for their center point. I couldn't figure out my center point for all the money in the world when I played larger races.

I could get behind this small option, maybe placed right under the Character Lighting slider in our options menus.

What, you don't like the MNK "all out run" animation? It's one of the few Sprints I like. WHM and SCH look so dorky. Not sure about AST since I play it so rarely. My SCH looks like he's going to drop his book every time he runs, and I feel like my WHM is holding up his skirts/robes like some frontier woman in the old Wild West trying to run out and save cattle or something.

Of the options, SGE's looks the best, imo. Though it would be nice if the Nouliths moved a bit more/differently/tucked in closer to the body or something when you Sprint.

.

I think all of this is just going to "everyone has different tastes". There's literally nothing they can do with stances/sprint that some people aren't going to dislike. This is the first thread I've heard either of these complaints, but apparently they exist. :)
