Two Handed Hammers Should Use Polearm Animations

So, for most races, your character holds the polearms like they are about to put some strength into their attacks as well as holding the weapon like it has, as Thrall said, more haft than blade. Two handed swords on the other hand either look like your character has some finesse or they are holding a baseball bat(Yeah, I am looking at you Humans).

I thought I was the only one who was thinking this.

I agree. Just remove the thrusting animations when using axes/maces and it would be much better.

For reference :grin: love the mog btw! :+1:t4:

Exactly, though I am pretty sure when humans use hammers they actually poke people with it as one of the attack animations, but removing them would be a lot better.

Thank you! I really appreciate you posting the picture for me, and the compliment my friend! By the way, your tmog looks absolutely great!

On another note, remove male orcs 1h holding animation and replace it with their fist weapon one. Their 1h looks like they’re afraid somebody is gonna steal their axe.

Truee, when you select Orc warrior on the new character creation screen, they are holding their axes like they are fully confident that you will charge at them and they are not afraid, on contrast to their actual dual wield animations, it looks like they are almost kissing their axes.

You will give your axe a female name.

This is MY axe, there are many like it but this one is mine…

I will name you Charlene… and sometimes “Betty.”
