No Unarmed+Shield Animations?

Well, asking for an "unarmed combat" skill tree is nothing new. A lot of people have asked it already (including myself) and it would be a very cool addition to the game.
But this is not the case here. I'm just here to talk about animations.
Even though the game has no Unarmed skill tree, it has unarmed combat animations, and I fancied the idea of a big and tough orc that only brawls with his fists (pretty much like the naked nord challenge, the weaponless orc challenge).
It was going quite well until I thought "hey, know what would be cool? If he punched with one hand and had a shield on the other, Captain America style"
So I got him a cool shield and...
Surprise, surprise - with no weapon on the other hand, he keeps the shield on his back when fighting! Lol.
Is there a reason for that? I mean, I suppose the simple answer is "there's no animation set for punching with one hand and holding a shield on the other"... But... Could we please have that, eventually?
Or at least a proper unarmed skill tree?
And maybe polearms? And one hand + Staff? Or just a one hand + nothing (fencing) tree?
Ok, I digress.
Sorry for the useless post

SJD_Phoenix✭✭✭One hand tree would be sick.
Maybe a 20% attack speed bonus when only having one weapon equipped.
Maybe introduce brass knucks too0 -
DaniAngione✭✭✭✭✭Yeah, knucks and such could be part of an unarmed tree, though it would be awesome if it took the armor (gloves) into consideration... like, light armor gloves gives speed, heavy armor gauntlets gives extra damage, etc...
One hand would be really awesome - I really fancy the idea of a "fencer" and new weapon models/motifs for pointy swords
I think that a one hand + staff or one hand + "spell" tree would be really cool for "battle mages" too.
And polearms would be the best update ever... I mean, they're just so cool and fun... I see no reason to not add polearms in the game, they could add a lot of new dynamics with it.
Throwing weapons too, now that I think about it... It's so satisfying to throw the Templar Javelin and see the enemy be thrown to the ground with the spear across their chest... Just imagine having a bag of javelins on your back and a shield on your hand. Awesome!0
