I would also really like this.
I made a macro that does this but also hides some extra stuff when my weapon is sheathed. Its set to work with L3 as normal.
Create the macro in slot 99 then go to System Configuration > Gamepad Settings > Button Configuration > L3 = Execute macro #99
The only issue I have is that it can go out of sync. I did try another way using the settings for custom hotbars when weapon is drawn / sheathed but having a blank hotbar doesn't work. I also disabled Auto Sheathe to prevent unsync
If you do manage to unsync Hold L1 and press R1 to draw without affecting the hud
/mlock (locks macro execution until macro has finished)
/bm (Draw/Sheath Weapon)
/hud param (HP, MP, TP)
/hud sfx (Status Effects)
/hud crosshotbar (The crosshotbar)
/hotbar display 6 (Additional hotbar to see timers)
/wait 1 (rough time it takes to draw weapon)
You could also add /hud plist to hide the party.
Code:
/mlock
/bm
/hud param
/hud sfx
/hud crosshotbar
/hotbar display 6
/wait 1
