Shield on back

Recommended Posts

So i just made a new character and during the cinematic for the battle at ostagar i saw Ser Cauthrien having a shield and a 2 handed sword on her back. And well i thought, thats awsome! I'd love to be able to run around with a 2handed weapon/dual wielding while still having a shield on my back just for the looks.

Hmmm I'd never caught that in the opening cutscene.

Its an interesting idea tho. And it could actually be implemented. For instance, with Jojjo's weapons mod, they've added sheaths to the weapons that are placed in the quiver slot (that bows and xbows use for their arrows/bolts).

If a person were to make a shield replica, then customize some of the swords to use that model as a sheath, with the sheath being assigned to the quiver slot.

One problem that does come up from this, is that mods implementing this, conflict with the dual 2h mod. (The mod that turns 2h weapons into 1h weapons). Any item that uses a sheath WILL be turned into a 2h weapon, and the mod that I just mentioned cannot compensate for it (due to the quiver taking up the other weapon slot/off-hand slot).

So anybody running the dual wield 2h mod wouldnt be able to dw the weapons made with the shield as a sheath.

 

But its a cool idea I'm hoping somebody takes it up :) :thumbsup:
