    New sheathe customization.

    Hi friends! I hope you are well today. Today, I'd like to talk about new weapon sheathing options for a few of the jobs that we have. First off, I have no idea how much time and effort this would take to implement, but it's just wishful thinking that something like this could be added.

    On to my point! How would everyone feel about new sheathing animations/weapon locations for each weapon? We've had the same placement since the beginning of this game and aesthetically, I'd like for more options. Say for samurai, ninja, and dark knight, maybe have the weapons sheathe to the lower back! How amazing would that look to draw from that position and to be able to customize how your stance is? Also, on the topic of stances...could dark knight please use their battle stance emote as their regular stance? PLEASE!?

    Please feel free to discuss here what sheathing positions you'd like for your own job! I could really only think of the main three I listed, but I understand there's so many options out there! I'm sure we can think of something!

    Thank you for reading this and giving it your thoughts! I appreciate you all and I hope you are well!

    I feel this game lacks combat content, so things like this I could really care less about being implemented. And for how much detail you have in your post, they would remove another dungeon per patch from us for this.

    Sheath locations would be fantastic. Honestly they could leave the unsheath animations the exact same - no one will care too much if we could sheath our weapons in different locations and the animations to grab them were off... most people draw their weapon with an attack anyways which skips the unsheath animation anyways.

    Ninja : Lower back, over each shoulder, thighs
    Gunbreaker : Across lower back (like monster hunter Sword and Shields!) Over the -other- shoulder. Hip.
    Paladin : Link Style. Sword and shield on the back. At the same time.
    Samurai : Over the shoulder
    DRK and WAR : Let us flip the shoulder its on.
    WHM and BLM : Let us just walk around with the staff out like its a walking stick/lean on it

    Just off the top of my head.

    I might revisit the thread again in some other time because I just can't think of any nice new motions they could've probably added.

    But if I know anything that I want related, is to have our (un)sheath animations updated to EW's version. If you've played through and watch EW cutscene, you'll notice everybody, including our WoL's animation while (un)sheathing their weapon are improved tremendously. It looks super fluid. It's one of the reason I turn on again the watch cutscene setting for EW dungeons. I'd LOVE to see this getting added to our regular motions. Pretty please SE, with cherry on top.

    Really? The RDM cutscene weapon draws in Endwalker were so jarring for how deliberate and slooooow they are. I feel like anyone who wanted to blast me with an aethersmite while I was drawing my weapon could have, easily. Don't know about the other jobs because I only did cutscenes with RDM but maybe I'll see a few when I get around to doing the role quests. If they're anything like RDM I'd prefer we just keep the normal speed weapon draws that we've always had.

    A few classes do need this. Dragoon and warrior need animation changes to how they walk with their weapons. 100%. But sone of the stuff you want is grossly excessive spevially since it leaves a lot of classes unfairly left behind in those categories.
