Guild Wars 2

I was hoping to find an official confirmation here that a few of the Aetherized Weapon Skins are currently missing animations, and that there is a plan in place to fix. It’s a gorgeous weapon set, but some of these skins are really lacking if indeed all are working as intended.

Specifically, the Dagger and Greatsword are missing the sliding blade animations that they would appear to have the ability for – both in the preview window, as well as once they have been equipped. They both display the steam cloud, and the small valve stem popping animations.

Also, are the Short and Long Bow missing an animation? There’s obviously not as many moving parts on these, however both currently display the same as the D, and GS (Steam/Valve Stem).

Yeah I wonder. I haven’t even seen anyone use them so I couldn’t be able to confirm if they have animations when wielded.

It would be nice to get these questions answered before the price gets jacked up… Might even help generate more sales on keys if players knew this was an identified issue, and would be fixed eventually.

Ok, the prices have now been jacked up, and this weapon skin set has become all but an afterthought with the new champion-level weapon drops. Can we now get an answer to this?

The dagger and greatsword don’t have that sliding animation. When they grabbed the greatsword in the live stream before the patch went live they didn’t say anything about it or even mentioned it so I doubt they’re animated.
