    Although /display main works well, I still think it'd be nice to be able to unequip your weapon completely. Why not just make being bare-handed the same as switching to pugilist? I still think it's silly pugilists can't fight with their bare fists.

    Because being bare-handed doesn't automatically make you a martial master.

    Very true but Pugilists so far ARE the martial artists of the game, therefore should be able to fight with or without weapons!

    But the same applies to anyone who picks up a sword. That doesn't make them a blade master, unless they have the proper training. If I decide to unequip my weapon, I should be rather defenseless if my pugilist's rank is low. Otherwise, I can fall back on my previous training. I think it makes enough sense to be considered for implementation.

    It makes sense, but I don't like the idea of one class being the default for all weaponless characters. They should just give you the stone throw ability or something equivalent. I still want to be able to unequip my weapon though, or have the repair system updated to allow people to repair damaged weapons without having to switch classes.
