Lets keep it short and crispy! The title already explains the scenario.
Please look at the first 2 attached screenshots.
The first 2 images show the situation while running:
- The Greatsword clips once partly through the back (no screenshot, but it is only a bit)
- The Greatsword clips once quite a bit through the back (see screenshots)
- Effect is awfully obvious when wearing a prominent Greatsword skin (Legendaries..)
- Is not spontanous, repeats with the running animation
- Effect less pronounced/not visible when wearing another armor
Now the last 2 pictures..
The last 2 pictures show the situation when jumping from a standing position:
- Greatsword clips tremendously through the players back
- Choice of armor does not matter, the Greatsword will clip
- Most likely also affects characters using the same rig as humans: Sylvari and Norn?
Now.. Yes.. i don’t know what kind of an answer i am supposed to expect but my hopes are that somebody at Arenanet acknowledges the issue about the “hinge” of the Greatsword and offset to the player body while sheathed…
More screenshots with different Greatsword skins and armor configurations maybe on request, considering i am wasting transmutation charges because of this.
