I think all the combat professions should get something like this


-Pistols get holsters


-Rifles can be slung on the back


-Carbines could hang from the waist


-Knives, one handed swords, and two handed swords can get sheaths (or maybe knives can even get hooked onto the leg).


-Other one handed and two handed melee weapons could go on the back


-Polearms could go on the back


-Vibroknucklers could get a belt clip

That wold all be kick @$$. Item storages for weapons only, most excellent. And as long as we are ont eh subject for somehting like that why not make satchels wearable!? They have the look to be able to be worn! Its like a book bag for peeks sake! Why nto amke them wearable!

Actually, I'd think that satchels would be like a hip pocket type of thing. Like, a small little box on your hip, if you know what I'm talking about, if not, I can't really think of any examples off hand...

I kind of think we will be seeing fairly useless changes like this far before the actual problems with the profession are addressed.

I agree! We're getting the ability to Raise or Lower items placed in a house in the next patch! Finaly! In spite of all that is broken! ...!


Actually, it's still not a fix to a "usless" thing as ou can still only rotate on 1 axis, but whatever. Point is, we do get non-neccissary ("useless") items from time to time, all be it half borked, but we do get em... and they keep us distracted for about 1/2 a publish.

If you don't want me to "play the forums," then I suggest you make time playing the game more rewarding and less repetitive than "playing" here!

I'm pretty positive that player housing/game fluff and the combat balance pass are subject to 2 different development teams :smilehappy:

If I am not mistaken I believe that the chef approns have slots for skill mod tapes and such.


I think a further idea for the holsters would be for them to be able have slots for skill mods. Mabey 2 or 3. That would be pretty cool.


I mean even if they cant give us duel weild any time soon I would be somewhat apeased with a set of holsters = )

everyone go sign it it's a good thing. Since they don't have a date for Re-vamping the Pistoleer profession yet, why not try and get it put into the Smuggler Re-vamp, just a thought. Because i can't think of any really "smuggler specific" fluff that they could add (eg. Aprons, Chef's hats) for smugglers, other than holsters of course. This would potentially take care of Smugglers and Pistoleers in one shot, pardon the pun. And I do agree that they need to add slings for rifles, and scabbards for swords, but I'll leave that for their respective professions to discuss, and beg the devs for Keep up the good work guys Kudos.

Well, I say we try and get this to the dev's attention. If they like it, we tell them how they should do similar stuff for the other professions (the rifle sling, sheats, etc.). Maybe then they'd listen to us with a more open ear

sry to get a little off subject but rember before they changed pistoleer titles the title "quickdraw artist" ? that was a cool title i think they just made it quickdarw now but i would like to have holsters and scabbers (with the option to put the sword on you back or on you hip) and have the quickdraw artist title. i donno if anyone thinks this is good or bad but i think it would be cool if we could get that title back

I agree 100% give us holsters.


Yes they need to fix the bugs, and yes that's more important. HOWEVER...some of this type of fluff in a game is a good thing, they will serve no purpose whatsoever, but I would love to see them in game.
