    But, I wasn't questioning whether picking up an axe makes us fight like a MRD/WAR, and then picking up a lance makes us fight like a LNC/DRG. I know changing weapons changes classes (which is essentially game shorthand for changing your fighting style) and NPCs can do that, too. And I am aware that they showed a more realistic take in Heavensward's CGI of actually manually removing armor.

    What I meant was: Is there an actual instance of NPCs using the armoury system and having gear come out of nothing, like derplander in the Shadowbringers CGI and like us when we play the game?

    Enkidoh, thanks for the 1.0 example. I do agree ShB could be rule of cool, but I don't thinks its conclusive that that's all it is. I mean, being able to use the armory system doesn't keep the WoL from also manually removing armor when they want, so they could technically be able to do both. I just don't know if its valid reasoning to dismiss ShB as rule of cool just b/c Heavensward is a more realistic take, given the magic we're being shown exists in this universe, and the ever-growing weirdness that surrounds the WoL's nature, in particular.

    Which is why I was trying to see if anyone else is known to use the "swap your gear from thin air" system, to see if its meant to be unique to the PC or not. In the 1.0 example did he actually pull an axe out of thin air? Or did the camera cut away and/or he pulled an axe from some hiding place off screen? I wonder if I could find video? Hmm...

    (This is assuming any lore about this from 1.0 would still apply now, which could no longer be the case, of course.)
