Same Weapon // Weapon Swap

Jade_Knightblazerb14_ESO
So I had this idea for awhile now...

What if the player uses the same type of weapon for both weapon skill set bars, instead of having to weapon swap (which lags normally) they simply would add the swap time as a cast time to their 2nd weapon bar abilities...

Due to the player actively wanting to use the same type of weapon, which in most cases they rather use their main weapon in the first place. They could enable a way to view their 2nd weapon skill bar at the same time as 1st one. Theses abilities could be linked to 6,7,8,9,0. As stated, the abilities placed here will inherent a cast time (0.5 sec since that is what the weapon swap is suppose to be) + any cast time they come along with.

*Note this double weapon bar setup is only for if the same weapon is used, disables the ability to change to a different weapon*


Example: NB

Weapon Bar 1: Assassin's Blade (1) Instant cast, Uppercut (2) 1 sec cast.
Weapon Bar 2: Teleport Strike (6) (0.75 + 0.5) 1.25 sec cast, Shadow Cloak (7) 0.5 sec cast.


I will admit... I am terrible with the current weapon swap. I have guild mates that preform very well with switches and others like me who don't. I have been practicing however it just feels uncomfortable to the point I am ready to create macros on my keyboard to: Weapon swap > Use ability > Weapon swap back.
