Guild Wars 2

Update!

I have identified the specific item causing the problem I posted above! (shield anchoring to incorrect location)

Equipping the Cleric’s Gladiator Boots of Strength I crafted myself causes the problem. I stripped off all items but the shield and shoes, and the issue is the same.

Image #1: Shoeless with a properly working shield.
Image #2: The culprit.

My character’s shield seems to be anchored inside his arm, rather than on top. The problem occurs with every shield equipped. Other offhand items are not affected. Other people can see this on my character.

This occurs in PvE and WvW, but not in sPvP. It also does not occur with any other characters (e.g., the male Charr Engineer’s shield is fine).

Unfortunately I don’t know when it began, but I’m certain I didn’t see it before the Halloween stuff started.

Male Charr Warrior

Head: Cleric’s Gladiator Helm
Shoulders: Cleric’s Gladiator with Vigil pauldrons skin applied.
Chest: Cleric’s Gladiator with Vigil chest skin applied.
Hands: Nobleman’s Gauntlets
Legs: Cleric’s Draconic
Weapons: Ghastly Sword and Cleric’s Krait with Blood Legion Shield skin applied.

First four shots are how he appears out in Tyria and in WvW.
Last shot is the sPvP shield appearing correctly.
