Guild Wars 2

Let me start off by saying thank you Anet for your hard work on today’s patch. There are a lot of new and interesting improvements and features that I look forward to. I do not want to let the following diminish my respect for the work that you have done thus far.

With that said, I was unfortunately disappointed, after being distracted by the new patch improvements, when I discovered that my weapon (Foefire’s Essence) no longer had ghostly particle effects while holstered. I looked in the patch notes thoroughly and did not see any mention of this as either a bug fix or permanent change. All I have to say is this, please do NOT let this be a permanent fix. Many players, including myself, worked hard for this weapon and now that it does not have unique animations while holstered we feel as though we have been, for lack of a better word, jipped. Instead of spending the time and gold to create an extraordinary weapon like a legendary, many players including myself enjoyed the look and style of Foefire’s Essence. Although it seems trivial and small this feature was not something I was pleased about =-(.

I hope to see a response.

Respectfully,
Diablocoj

Well, anet is rather removing the glow from weapons, than fixing major bugs in the game.

I just noticed this bug (hopefully) downgraded the visual effects on my Aether bow as well. I sincerely hope Anet fixes this issue with a hot fix soon.

Thank you Anet for the prompt fix. You’re fantastic ;-).

Yeah, the issue is fixed in the latest build.
