Spear and Shield

[IntCel]

I have an idea to make staff/shield work with very little effort (hopefully).

Not because that's a combo everyone keeps requesting, I know it's not, BUT...
Take parts of the animations from Innocuous Strike and Sky Splitter, modify them to be done by 1 arm, add a few spear skins and VOILA, we got spear/shield.
I am a huge fan of the spear&shield combo in any game, I think it dates back to a little game that was also ahead of its time called Horizon: Tales of Istaria.

Either way, I think with relatively little effort we could turn a certain set combination into a whole new style.

I too think it'd be cool to play Valkyrie or Spartan warrior in City.

 

That said, I think spear should be it's own set (notice how much you're smacking people with the sides in staff) that would call for basically double the animation assets of normal. A two-handed version and a single handed version that could be paired with shield. I'm not even sure we could have tech for weapon sets that could make such alterations.
