Not sure if this has been suggested already but I just though it would be pretty cool if your avatars right arm could be in a different position or even if we had dual wield. I know this would take work and redrawing but I just thought it would be pretty cool. I'm stuck using a tablet right now but when I'm back to my computer maybe I'll draw a few examples of what I mean of others think this has potential?

I've seen this suggested before, can't remember if there was an official reply on it.

But this might happen, base on the avatar item preview of the megazone set:

But we don't know if this is a one-off thing, or there will be new items that can be held on the right hand, or they will make all helds holdable on both hands.

I think it's just an item that's able to be compatible with the open right hand aha.
So something like a shield/giant object that happens to cover the right hand gives the illusion that it's a secondary held item.

Some items give the illusion of playing with some body areas by covering up to make them seem different and interesting, for example, sleeves covering up the arms to seem like a long oriental dress


Or outfits covering up the legs to seem like you have different lower body parts (the legs of the octopus one are still seen but you kinda get the gist of what was trying to happen)


It'd be cool to have items held in the other hand, though I can imagine layer issues (because the base (including hand) is behind the outfit, and the outfit is behind the held, so it'd look like you're holding the item through your outfit), or getting the other hand to close (since when you wear no helds, your hand's open, but when you have a held, it's closed, the same might have to be drawn for the other held if they're holding weapons or something).

But I do think it'd be cool to have more items that are different. o: I'd like to see this in the far future, maybe if avatars are planned to be revamped so that there's more flexibility in general (if Sylestia ever goes down that way).

I believe alternative poses (and perhaps items for the right hand) were rejected due to avatar items already drawn being made to fit exactly to the base. I'd assume avatar outfits would be the problem in this case, as far as changing the pose goes.

I forget what the reply was for items for the right hand alone. Perhaps there is a sliver of hope for that?
