But could an alternative animation for Brawl that used the slash animation work?

I'm betting he's thinking of the difference between "regular" animations and animations for a character with the Shields powerset. Or how the brawl animation is a kick with the Bow deployed. Not even remotely the same thing as what he's asking, but... yeah...

I wouldn't mind having a slash attack for WolfCrabSpider Flea, but I can't bring myself to ask BaBs to do it. Brawl is already one of the biggest PITA powers in the game.

Any possibility of Brawl being added to the power customization so that we can specifically choose a set animation to use for it? A few of my characters would be set to that great kick animation full time instead of randomly switching if it could.

Brawl would probably be the most problematic power to customize - maybe even more than Granite and such powers.
If it IS so, it would be due to how they have brawl work now, with the alternate animations depending on your combat mode.

It would look incredibly weird if you didn't take the forearms with blades on your costume, though. About the only VEAT you could do this for would be Night Widow branch Arachnos Widows, as they always have claw attacks - but they're unlikely to use Brawl beyond the earliest levels, so it's not really worth doing.

I use my blades all the time when I activate Sands of Mu.
