Q:
Ascended longbow wielded
A:
I think the problem is that the “Wielded” preview puts all two hand weapons in the right hand, but the bow is supposed to be held in the left hand and drawn with the right (per game mechanics, see other threads for folks asking for left handed characters). So the preview displays the weapon as it will look on the character, except shifted to the wrong side of the body for the grip. It might be hard to code it to be treated as an offhand weapon in the preview.
As Donari says, the preview is inaccurate. With most weapons it isn’t very noticeable, but it’s really obvious that there’s a mistake with the ascended longbow.
When you’re actually using one, the bow is the way you expect it to be. See picture.
