Don't draw weapon on spells

[ContraTempo]

It's really annoying that whenever someone around me casts certain spells, my character draws a weapon. Is there an addon to stop that?

[Ayantir]

Not doable.

As far as I know it is not possible to detect this (until update 1.7).

Maybe now, with the new weapon skills etc. API someone could:
-build a list of spells which will draw your weapon.
-check if the spell affecting you is in the list
-check if the spell caster is in your group
-> If not stop drawing your weapon

But:
I think it is not possible to stop the weapon drawing by help of addons. Only if you are using the alternative eso client/starter which is able to alter protected functions somehow (correct me if I'm wrong).

And in addition:
You wouldn't draw your weapon then if someone attacks you in PvP, or PvE, if the skill in the list is used

So in total I'd say you must live with it :-(

maybe check if you are in town?

and double check if you are in Cyrodiil

for sure it wont be possible to prevent the drawing in the first place.
and someone is working on an auto sheath i think already, i've seen a forum post about that not long ago.

but there might be other complications than just detecting the buff to do this.


Edit, found who may be on it : maybe you should explain your request there too :
