"Armed to the Teeth" request

Lokryn

So I know there are a lot issues that need to be taken care of first but thought I'd throw in a suggestion for something that would be really cool.

There is a mod for Skyrim called "Armed to the Teeth" that allows you to have your weapons "sheathed" on your body even if they they are not currently equipped. You can find it on the Skyrim Nexus website.

I think this would be an awesome addition with ESO's weapon swap system. So let's say you have dual wield and bow as your weapons. Having armed to the teeth would make it where you still show your unequipped weapon on your body. So if I have my two swords out, my bow and quiver still show on my back. And vice versa, my swords would be sheathed while my bow is out. Currently, we are just pulling these weapons out of thin air.

ZOS, if you could look into this as a future feature, it would be great. Thanks!

That would be awesome. But then again sometimes I have shields for both swaps.

And there was me thinking this was going to be about Suarez.

<p>I'd love this aesthetic (in addition to continue to have them sheathed while riding), with a toggle to turn it off Of course. </p>

What if my character has 3 arms?

Wouldnt that require my character to need extra back space? I dont want a fat wide character. To crazy for my tastes.

Maybe a BatBelt setup when I hang my shield and extra weapons.

Or i could wear the extra stuff as shoes or earrings.

Or, maybe just leave it alone.

Wayyyyyy to much other stuff to fix.

WTB dual wielding shields.

It's not a terrible idea, but it does have a few problems.

Firstly say you have a staff equipped and a sword and shield as your alternate, when you sheath everything wont the staff and the shield start clipping each other.

Second, for this to work you need proper scabards for swords and knifes, and some sort of leesh for other weapons to be attached, otherwise they will still be floating in mid-air.

But if they fix those two issues it could work.

<p>Ideally they'd just need to set a secondary position for the weapons that aren't equipped, or make it based on action bar 1 and 2 (2h weapon sheaths right shoulder to left hip for currently selected weapon, 2h weapon sheaths left shoulder to right hip for not currently equipped weapon).</p>

Yeah this is what I was thinking. You would need two positions for the model to set on your back in case you have 2handed/staff or something similar.

No doubt there is going to be some clipping but I can live with that to have something like this. I come from WoW so I'm used to major clipping on the weapon models. Naturally, there would need to be an option to not use the feature if you don't like it.

I'd just like to see my weapons while on a horse. However that's the the ultimate clip problem apparently
