    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

    I always felt that Pugilist should be the default no weapon class.

    Currently, there is no way to remove weapons entirely, but if pugilist would be made the default then it would be possible to be weaponless.

    LOL cash shop! SE's way to tell their player how they appreciate them... pull the carrot and empty your pockets $$$
    And to those who support it: you are kicking yourselves. -- We just need to sit back and laugh at people with cash shop items.

    Please make this happen, I hate how all Monk weapons are giant war clubs instead of something you could actually perform open-handed palm strikes with and do all the other things that the Monks do while fighting.

    Their "weapon" should be the gloves on their hands themselves, IMO.

    Personally, I like the oversized fist weapons.

    Regardless, if SE were to have monks go weaponless, they should do it the right way and give a monk the ability to fight with no weapon slotted at all, instead of just a glamour to make it invisible.

    One way they can do this is make a combined chest/waist item, like a gi with a black belt or something.
