Back items bugging with Human using shield
“Back Items”? You mean the “Back Banner” in your video? (It is a brand-spanking-new addition to the game. Not “since the beta”). Or do you have that issue with other visible back items? (Quivers, backpacks, etc.). I have the new quiver, and an Engineer with 2 packs and never had that issue.
If it is just your “back banner”, then I would assume it is an intentional animation (taking your shield off your back, then putting your banner on your back) since they obviously can’t both be on your back simultaneously due to clipping issues. (Although that doesn’t seem to be an issue with the Engineer’s oversized backpacks and their rifles slung right through them. I haven’t seen an Engineer using a shield… is that a mess?)
But I DO thank you for confirming that the “back banner” DOES look every bit as ridiculous in the game as it does in the promotional picture. Makes ya look like some sort of Battle Chess pawn or something. I bet the “we want capes!” guys are crying in their soup.

It happens with every back item with Human using a shield.
Well, maybe not all of them, but at least the ones I have tried. That being the Back Banner, the Backpacks, The Engineer Backpack (Used Fine Transmutation Stone and gave it over to my Guardian.)
I don’t know if it maybe is a Guardian only bug (could be Aegis bugging it up, no clue), but it happens with (most) the back items I use on him.

I know what you mean, I don’t like it that much either, my Guild Master won a bet x)

I made a Human Engineer and got a shield, it’s the same bug with them.
