About the Emperor's new gear

[Grekumah]

I'd like to make a personal request, which is 'Emperor's new "weapon"' I just thought it'd be cool for casting clases, casting solely with their hands, or Monks punching things with their bare fists. I don't know how it'd work for every other class, but well, it'd be cool!

We don't have any plans to make all weapon types transparent; however, for monks, we are planning to release something once we look more into the concept of fighting with their own fists.

Don't forget the Emperor's New Shield

From a World setting and story perspective, not having a visible shield would mean that you couldn't use shield bash or shield lob, and as such we have no plans to introduce an "Emperor's New Shield." However, we may be able to make a small shield so that it doesn't stand out too much, so we will look into that.

More class/job variety would be great. When can we have Gladiators that fight with two swords? And Pugalists that fight with their fists? Or Marauders that fight with hand-axe and shield? :P

Fundamentally those would be different classes in this game. Put that in the "it doesn't match the armory system in the slightest so it's never going to happen" box.

World Setting and Story perspective, couldn't Cid just make another Iron Work Shield with a camo feature?

I could get down with hand magic, though. I'm just throwing that out there.

Emperor New Shield doesn't mean there is no shield, it is just invisible to normal people So we can use a shield skill normally
