    Greetings, everyone.

    Bare knuckles? No hand protection at all? Surely it’d be a good idea to at least wrap your hands in rope before battling! My suggestions aside, thanks for the request! We brought it up to the development team and they said they would look into whether they can make this happen.

    That would be awesome! An animation like FFXI had when you were only using your bare hands would be awesome for when you "draw" and "Sheath", so it doesn't look like your ghosting weapons to your belt when this feature is turned on.

    No hand protection is needed in classical mystical hand to hand combat since it's commonly held that practitioners are focusing their will/lifeforce/ki/magical energies into their strikes to either make their flesh harder than metal or directly destroy whatever is hit. In fact the argument could be made in some contexts that going completely barehanded makes strikes more effective.
    All that aside, i will <3 the team if they do make it happen. :3
