Uniqe weapon stances foreatch race

[Arkine]

They're different but not different enough, in FFXI the animations differed alot, and weren't just variations of the same thing. (Compare /sit for Hume, Elvaan vs Hyur, Elezen and Highlander).

Hell! I think jobs should have different stances instead of reusing the same battle stances that classes use, MNK's WS that was showed today was very Kung-Fu-ish, why not give him a matching martial arts stance and attacks to go with it?

The lance and bow is probably the only weapons that don't have you holding it twenty different ways. Because you can't unless you look stupid like that elf holding it in the OP. Who holds a lance sideways? wtf

There are actually three different stances to holding a spear/lance (in the real world). And holding like the Elvaan is one of them. Its the defensive stance. Albeit the Elvaan should technically have it slightly tilted (either end slightly higher, does not matter, it is reversible). Other than that little detail he is wielding it correctly.

In fact the Mithra is the ONLY one who is wielding the lance/spear incorrectly as she has made herself too open for attack. (but I suppose it looks cool)

Just try Pugilist with Roegadyn and Elezen, you'll see the difference =)
Stances are different, but they have all a basic stance to respect, so...

[Alcide]

Oh you're right, they're different, but in XI they were MOOOAR different :O I can't believe thay made another thing different from XI /ragequit.

stfu already '>.>

greetings citizens. I was wonder a thing. will developers ever introduce uniqe weapon stances for every race? rite now all races hold the weapons exactly the same, they probably attack exactly the same as well.

look at this for example


i think it is important with uniqe stances like above picture. even ffxi and wow has it. why shouldnf ffxiv also have it?

This is what i want to see, Being unique Right now every class hold lance and other weapons the same with same animation. I must say, it look pretty dumb>.>

Some races already do, just look at lalalancer vs every other race, also miqo'te pgl vs. lalafell/roegardyn/elvaan

Making them even more different, including the WS animations would be interesting but not likely.

the taru holding the gun/crossbow was cool. just a little baby gun but still dealt big dmg. thats why i lvl'd rng to 75 on 2 chars!
