I think it actually depends on something else (the combination between Race, Gender and Items texture models) rather than the items themselves. I say this due to the fact that I’ve seen this post written by you Entropy and I, myself, never had this bug and I’m playing this Class at this moment. In any case, take into account the fact that if they change even something small it could have big repercussions on the game as it is (a.k.a new bugs). I’m not defending them at any point, all mature people should take responsibility for their actions, but take into account the fact that they are just a handful of people and we are Legion
Hope it’s fixed soon and happy gaming.
