Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, just noticed this recently. I recently attempted to craft a Beaded Lancea (spear) and it looks like the Beaded Harpoon Gun. The skin of the weapon is incorrect. I didn’t get a chance to try it in action, so i’m not sure if it functions as a Harpoon Gun as well or not. Not sure if it’s something that’s well known. I know it’s probably not a huge priority but just wanted to get it out there.

Please update us on what you see. Can you please attach a screenshot?

Thank you!

According to the wiki…

The skin of this item currently displays that of the Beaded Harpoon Shooter, observed first in December and still in place as of May 28th.

Logging ingame to check the TP and verify this issue. Will return with SS.

EDIT: Added screenshots.

Note that the first picture is a preview from the Trading Post.

The second picture, I purchased a Beaded Lancea and proceeded to use it underwater. You can tell that it is a Spear because of my weapon skills, but it does not look like the intended model of the Beaded Lancea, shown in the above link to the Beaded Lancea wiki page.

The skin and icon of the Beaded Harpoon Shooter and the Beaded Lancea are swapped. See the attached screenshot for the Beaded Harpoon Shooter.

I like the quirkiness of this mistake though. I used a beaded Lancea on my necro for ages, stabbing away with my little harpoon gun.
