That's not what I'm asking for. Please read the OP after my edit. ("Sentimentality should not reset if your bonded weapon is equipped at: A) Your item belt or B) Your main hand; At combat end, if this condition is not met, it will reset.")

Sentimentality as it is displays your mastery of one singular weapon. It's the -weapon type- that is concerned, not your -main hand weapon-, so you can have two Tarnadas, both will be treated equally for Sentimentality, so why bother thinking this only applies to that specific weapon? The buffs are minimal, right? Even more a reason why it shouldn't reset! It's not impactful enough to warrant such a severe punishment for OOC mistakes or people being too bloody rushy with their dungeon clearing speed and lack of respect for another's special conditions such as concerns for Sentimentality.

You can swap weapons mid-battle, not lose sentimentality, but when combat ends and if you had your back-up weapon in your main hand? Kiss that hundred battles time investment a fine goodbye.

As I mentioned, this happens more often in PvE, at parties you're not the leader of, you'll have to be asking people 'hol' up a moment, my sentimentality will reset if I don't swap this back in my pocket!' EVERY. GOD. DAMN. FIGHT.

OOCly is annoying, and ICly? Absolutely CRINGE to be asking for others' leniency for OOC reasons, which could pretty much be called metagaming by then. All because of 2 Power/Hit/Crit.

Epic.

Besides the OCD, oh god the OCD when you lose your +2 Power to your weapon and have 98 SWA instead of a clean 100. It truly ruins my happy camping every single time.
