    Can we drag our weapons while we run?

    I know, I know, it's silly, and completely vapid, but I just love the visual that comes with a melee fighter character dragging his weapon across the ground, shooting sparks this way and that, on his way to do some killing. It looks so cool. A nice example of it exists in-game with the Warrior of Darkness.

    Example: https://youtu.be/MmZbu99Yt10?t=221

    We don't know much about this guy's history or motivations (so mysterious!), but we do know that in battle, he's a merciless killer who relishes using brutal fighting techniques, and intimidating his opponents by dragging his axe after himself while taking off in a psycho run, with a maniacal grin on his face. So fun!

    So I was thinking, can melee classes have this too? For all us wild warriors, unhinged Paladins, and Guts role-playing Dark knights? (Oh, and Dragoons and those other guys too, I guess.) We can change our social stances, or weapon stances with /cpose, so how about changing our running animation with /rpose?

    Again, I know, totally pointless, just completely superficial, but so are most of the great things in this game! I just want this for the cool factor. How about anyone else?

    Heh. I was thinking that monks could like gnash their knuckles against each other while running, and Ninjas could sharpen their daggers against one another.

    Clearly, the best Final Fantasy character is Locke Cole.

    If you sprint with DRK, it kinda looks like you could drag the Greatsword into the ground. Just change the angle a bit and add sparks. Done! xD

    Why would I want to damage my weapon?

    I'd rather have those tumble/slide animations that don't involve flailing (which, who would have thought, is how a WoL swims!), and/or those sardonic battle expressions...

    I'm all for it as long as I can scrape the face off my DRG relic while doing it.
