    Man, if that bugs you, MRD/WAR's Weapon Throw must drive you crazy. XD

    Honestly, though, the concept of an invisible shield is okay to me, except for the fact the way your arm will be cocked as though holding a shield even when you're not. That kind of thing already makes crafters' and gatherers' drawn-weapon /changepose look hilariously bad, and I doubt it'll look any better on an actual GLD/PLD.

    Pretty funny I actually think the bent arm looks really cool without a shield! With /changepose it looks like I'm saluting.

    Just a couple of Double Sabers/Swords from Final Fantasy / Phantasy Star that literally debunk this. They don't look "Rediculous", they look like they're in a combat pose. As far as the effectiveness of it? You'd have to ask someone else. Shinkendo only taught me two handed styles - not one handed.
