I believe the smokey effect on the Royal Ascalonian weapons is not supposed to show while the weapon is stowed on your back. In addition, when you unsheathe the weapon, its supposed to emit a small flash of light (so cool) before the smokey effect begins to manifest. My friend has the greatsword and it’s working properly. Unfortunately my shortbow is not. The smokey effect shows while it is sheathed and when it is unsheathed it does not emit a flash of light.
Bug? Or intended? Either way I am slightly disappointed.
