What do you have in your off-hand that you want to hide? If it's a shield, do you REALLY want to have the animation of blocking with your arm? o_0

Do you really know how Display ON/OFF command works? :P

Well, from my experience in video games, it usually means you either display something (Display: ON) or Hide it (Display: Off). Which beings us back to Mychael's question: Why would you want to hide your shield?

Same way you could hide your main hand. It would only be visible if your character drew their weapon, and putting it away would keep it hidden so you don't have to look armed all the time.

I never messed with off hand commands, so I can't remember that being an option.

This was in 1.0, I don't see why they would remove it.

You can hide your main hand outside of combat, but can you hide your off-hand?

And just to clarify, is the OP asking to hide the off-hand at ALL times or only during combat?
EDIT: Since he linked the thread about the shields poking through armor, I assume out-of-combat.

Well... Why not, then?

^^What he said.

Next time, clarify better what you mean, OP. I figured you meant just hiding what's in your off hand. I didn't figure you meant showing it in battle, since you didn't make your point clear. I guess there's nothing wrong with hiding your off-hand out of battle (though, to be honest, I have no idea why one would want to do that either. lol)

I'm sorry. I assumed people on Final Fantasy XIV Forum had played the game till the end. Anyway, it was implied that I was speaking about Display ON/OFF command as it was in Final Fantasy XIV:

/display main hand off
Your weapon is hidden on Passive Mode
Switching to Active Mode makes your weapon to pop up

I would just like to see implemented the command Display Off Hand ON/OFF, so that you can hide weapons and shield when out of combat.

All I can think of are the discussions of "So, where exactly does Hope store his boomerang...?" In XIII. ;D
