Gloambound shield keeps vanishing in combat

odaphii

Hey there! I haven't found a thread talking about this so here goes;

I have a sorc tank who uses gloambound weapons and the vibe is IMMACULATE. The sole exception being the shield. I don't know what causes it, I don't know why it happens, all I know is that it likes to turn invisible during combat. Sheathing it and re-drawing it works, but it'd be great to see it looked into.

Thanks!

I guess just for the sake of it, here's me "holding the shield"

The frost shield is also disappearing when taken out.

Oh, the one from the crown crates?

Swapped weapons once and they disappeared (dual wield swords). It persisted for a bit even if changing weapons until I entered a menu?

Wonder if this is tied to the Templar's Sun Shield animation also being bugged? Is there an issue with 'shield' visibility going on???

Hi all. We do have a bug in for this and it is under investigation. No eta as of yet regarding a fix, but we'll update once we have one.

Considering that the shield animation for Sun Shield is not the same (the Sun Shield surrounds your character while the shield you have equipped is held like a shield and fixed to your arm), and that the Sun Shield issue has already been fixed on PTS while this issue does not yet have an ETA for a fix, I don’t think they’re related.

Cool! Thanks for the heads up!

This is one bug I have seen so can confirm.

It's been around for a while.

Hey there, sorry to necropost but this is directly related; there are issues with clipping as well when you hold the weapons. Most visible in first person, but noticeable in third person as well. It's kinda hard to capture it in a screenshot?

Additionally, would it be possible to suggest a sound effect change? Plenty of weapons have different sound effects playing when sheathing/drawing, but the Gloambound weapons play the regular sheathe/draw sound effect. Could we have one that sounds more like summoning bound arms? Even if it's just reused Sorc pet summon sfx lol

@ZOS_Kevin Hey there, sorry for the necro post but have you seen the above? The clipping?

And again, suggestion; some sound effects that don't make the weapons sound physical when drawn/sheathed. Even if they're reused from something else.

odaphii

There's been no update regarding the gloambound weapons yet. I don't think that items costing crowns should come with MASSIVE clipping issues.

That, and well, my suggestion still stands; it shouldn't sound like you're drawing a tangible metallic weapon when drawn. You've shown that weapon skins can have unique sound effects; can the same treatment be given to this weapon set?

Just hoping this gets seen......

odaphii

Still no updates for one of my fave sets, no acknowledgment, nothing.

👋??

Kind of ridiculous they're selling this when there's clipping issues, vanishing weapons, and ill-fitting sound effects.
