"Sheathed" Ranged Weapons

[ma3lstrom]

I've only been in the beta for a day or two now so I'm sure this is old news but...is this something that is working as intended or is this a new feature that is kinda glitchy? It seems you can slap a shrunken version of your ranged weapon on your back when it's not in use. It only seems to work with crossbows for me, though. I tried various bows and guns I had in my my bank for transmog but only the crossbows appeared on my back.

Well, it looks like they are working on it at least.

I imagine though that certain weapon models are never going to work well. Core Marksmans's rifle is a good example. Or some of the tiny guns will look silly. They need holsters for some of the small guns.

I really hope they add this in properly. My back will look so empty when my poor melee weapons vanish into oblivion...

Start using a cape again, now that a stick won't be jutting out of the middle of it?..

Capes clip through more than just weapons. It's the mounts that bother me most. Urg, ever since I noticed how bad it was I've never worn a cape since...

I think it's intended, and it makes me really happy! Especially so, knowing that old races get it too, even pre-remodeling.

Thank you for the screenies!

Another screenshot. The shrinking is annoying when you sheath it onto your back. It's very noticeable during the animation, especially for large crossbow models.

Went through my bank, found 1 bow I had that sheaths [sadly not Rhok'delar]. Also, it doesn't shrink like the crossbows! Say hello to the Voodoo Hunting Bow
