Getting worn out in battle.

[Hollowed]

So I had a thought (shocker!) anyway a feature I think would be neat is seeing your character getting worn down when said stat goes below a set %. For instance, when a healer is nearly out of MP they could be bent over a little attempting to catch their breath, or when HP is really low maybe on their knees from exhaustion. The best example I could think of is FFX, when your HP was below half you were slumped over and when it was really low you were on your knees not even able to stand. Cool concept I think. Thoughts?

Nice but wouldn't be worth it since you're always moving around in a fight most of the time and moving cancels out any other animation you were doing before that.

Nice cosmetics, but totally unpractical in Battle...

Yeah I like that kind of details !!

At the very minimum, they should like breath faster or deeper. When running they could do it in a clumsy looking way but still move as fast as normal.

I don't think most people are paying that much attention to detail during combat when they have other things to watch out for.. It'd be an addition that goes largely unnoticed by 99% of the player base. What they could do is implement a /panting emote.. Then you'll see a bunch of players in cities bent over panting

Camera zoomed back to max for any real fight. If my hp 8s low that's not the time to zoom in and take a selfie when on the verge if wiping.

Aesthetic effects like this would go ignored I'm a game where your virtually required to place camera at max distance and wipes usually happen I'm a matter of seconds.

Ain't nobody got time fo dat!

All that aside, a panting emote would be fun, for about 10 seconds until some sleazebag figures our how to abuse it...

reduced runspeed while worn out, like Heavy

Given most players thoughts on "Heavy" I just don't see that being popular with players. It'd be like saying "Oh hi guys, remember that really annoying and pointless thing that we do to you when you're high level and travelling past lower level enemies you have no intention of engaging? Well, now we're gonna do that to you during battles in raids, just for effect, when you're character get's tired..."

Alot of character movement details were removed from 1.0,

This ain't a turn based game.

Many would say that it's a shame it's not.

Makes no sense to be on your knees, yet still running at full speed dodging the next AoE.

Would be cool, but either the animation transitions would be super weird or they'd need to make new animations for the slumped over version of every race for every job... which is a bit much for a QoL thing like this. I'd love for it to be a thing, though. ):
