Holding ranged weapons?!

Unread post by Tygamoon »

Finally! The devs changed the hunter to holding their bow/crossbow/gun in the character screen! This makes me soooo happy ^_^ Lets hope they will soon make it to where we carry the ranged on our backs.

Actually, if you store your ammo in an actual Quiver or Ammo pouch they show that as well

They show ammo pouches too now? I thought it was jusst quivers. Now, all we can wait for is ranged on the backs, and perhaps showing quivers/pouches when we're not fighting too, AFAIK my quiver only shows when I'm killing something.

Thank goodness its the ranged weapon that shows. Nothing looks more pathetic than Artume's Whalestick Harpoon. World's biggest dental pick, and it doesn't even sit naturally when sheathed.

Once again...glad I'm not just losing my mind. Been working my butt off on my seminar presentation and stole an hour for the Warcrack last night and couldn't remember if I had always had my gun out and if my ghostsaber had always looked like that in the character screen. I'll be so glad to have this thing done!

Crossbows are held in the wrong hand, at least on Belf females.

I noticed!!! Yay!

Saturo, my draenei is holding her xbow in her left hand, which is the opposite of what she's doing in the armory. On the other hand, it's the hand she holds the butt of it in when she shoots, iirc. Is that what you mean?

Yup, they should be holding it in their right hand, like when you unsheath it in-game.
