Secondary weapons in Arena?

[affairs most succubussian]

Why not?

Only works in elimination. I do not have a reason why it wouldn't be in other modes tbh.

I think secondary weapons should be taken out entirely, besides a dagger or something small. :P but that's just me.

It was highly requested and implemented in one of a recent patches. I'm afraid you're in a minority on this one :)

Secondary equipment should be disabled for Arena, or the function disabled entirely.

It is nice being able to swap to fists for funzies but it takes away from the challenge. Sure it'll be "neat" to see the enemy wip out a dagger to cheat in a fist fight, but for the time being I'd rather just see it disabled for Arena.

In the future I hope it adds to your total encumberment, and maybe make it visible what you have "sheathed".

During pugilism, do you bring in a huge sword against your weaponless enemy? No.

2ndary weapons are not exception - they should be disabled for pugilism.

And if anything else, if the 2ndary fits the rank, it ABSOLUTELY needs to be allowed.

I don't remember arguing that. I was saying the ENEMY doing it would be "neat".

Secondaries for Arena mode are still uncessary with the current equip-rank system in place. It's already tedious enough to acquire and set up gear for each rank, on each character/hirling.

Secondaries in Arena would be OP.

Imagine a Halberd with a flanged mace with buckler combo. I could wreck everyone.

Or plate armor with long sword and shield and my secondary would be to stowe my shield. Now my sword is quicker due to less encumbrance.

It gives your fighter more options versus that hapless npc wonk.

Ah, apologies for not reading.

But even then, it doesn't matter if it's tedious. It's your choice if you want a 2ndry weapon for your recruit.

But even then, the npc (when even better ai comes) could do the same.
So now it's not op, it's like complaining about the opponent switching weapons in a game like Dark Souls (not comparing the game generally btw).
