New "Stances"

[Tubble]

<div>Hehehe i just thought i would bring this up hoping sony will read it and.......ya you know listen to it. Anywho to the main topic! I really think that swashys and some other classes should have different stances. Not stances that effect your stats, but stances that effect the way you look in combat. I am planning on going the Wisdom route with my swashy and i do not approve the way classes wield just one weapon. They need to add emphasis. Make a class different than other classes in combat. Anyways thats just a thought. Kinda pointless but just throwing it out there :smileywink:</div>

<div></div>our lvl 50 fluff spell is kinda like a "stance", its unique to swashies and blurs your weapons, not sure how it looks, have never actually picked it up. Time to visit the tree in EG

<div>Well the weapon blur isnt really what i meant. I mean like a new fighting like stance. Like they did to the monks and bruisers...if they used 2 fist weapons they went into a special stance unlike any other classes. I would like more classes to be like that.</div>

<div></div>That is just a stance for certain weapons that happen to be Monk and Bruiser exclusive. Bo Staff and Mage Staffs have different stances when being used. A couple other weapons do, it isn't a class specific thing, it is a weapon thing.

<div></div><p>Indeed, you too can have that monk/bruiser stance ... if you unequip your weapons. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>On a side note, some of our buffs have really <em>odd</em> animations if you cast them without weapons equipped.</p>
