This was once fixed, and as of Feature Pack 2 it’s back again. Mesmer clones (sword or scepter) do not have offhand weapons in their hands. As well, underwater clones do not have any weapons or breathers.
Also, when shattering clones/phantasms with the “Effects Lod” option enabled, since the wintersday patch in low FPS situations such as large zergs, the clones/phantasms do not shatter properly. They now do the shatter pose, but just get stuck there and hang around for about 5 or so seconds before just disappearing. This was not happening before the wintersday update.
Another issue, there is a thread about it but silence from anyone at Anet, please give us back our idle animation for female characters!
When you go inside the shield they do 0 damage.
