Have weapons in hands by side?

Hi, is there a way to have your weapons be in your hands instead of on your back at all times? My transmog looks way worse when they’re on my back imo. Thanks!

I know you can unsheathe them by using the keybind (default is Z), but that would require you to constantly press the key or set up a macro for it.

How often does it automatically resheath them?

Edit: yikes, seems VERY often

I believe there is an addon that will either constantly sheath your weapon or if you prefer, the opposite. Have to do some research on it, but I believe what it does is periodically check to see if your weapon(s) are in your hand(s), and if not triggers the event to put them there.

I have found that with updates to the game, I can keep my weapon–in my case a bow–in my hand for a good majority of the time unless I am mounted, interacting with something that requires the use of my hands such as a quest item or looting. Changing posture like sitting will also cause my weapon to sheath.

There are a few cases where I’m sorry but the game will outright refuse to let you have your weapon in your hand. For every other time, there’s the addon.
