A request from a Ninja.

[Rongway]

This creates the requirement of a lot of work for little in-game benefit, and while I always do think more options are better, I also would say that if implementing those options takes away other meaningful, playable content, then they should place it on the back burner.

Except no, it would just be a one time modification to the system. Rapiers and magicked crystal mediums are already two separate 3D models. NIN weapons use the same dagger model twice. MNK weapons use the same model twice. Once the system gets set up to handle this, no extra work needs to be done on assets.

There is no slippery slope here.
