Holster styles for sword & shield type weapons are now literally useless money sinks.

[Kankree]

As melee equip/unequip animations have been basically phased out of the game, and holster styles for sword & shield weapons only influence those animations and nothing else, the holster styles for them have become completely useless money sinks.

 

Discuss.

There are holster positions of your melee that are only possible with certain holster styles. The few I got were purely for that reason. Having your galatine impale you in a certain way is always fun.

That's not true for Sword and Shield though, which is the topic of this thread.

What Loza03 said. 

 

Sword and and shield holster styles are different from all the others because any sort of positioning you can do with them, you can do with the default style anyway. The only thing they influence is the draw/sheathe animations, and with those basically being gone, the purchasable holster styles for the weapon type are completely useless. Not to mention, this update decreased the value of holster styles across the board, considering the draw/sheathe animations were half the appeal of them.
