DEVS - Evil Hunter visual does not work correctly when weapon swapping.

yogarogue · May 2015

It may seem like a small glitch, but when using evil hunter with one weapon and then switching over to your other weapon, the visual effect does not work correctly.

It looks awkward and never fits the weapon(s) properly. For instance, if I use evil hunter with a bow, and then switch to duel wield only one of my weapons shows the effect. Similarly, when using evil hunter with a bow and switching over to a 2handed sword, the visual effect does not fit the sword at all. I know for a fact that evil hunter does not have that effect with those weapons because when I use it with a 2handed sword or two - one handed swords, the visual is the way it should be and completely different.

If the devs could please take a look at this and try and get it fixed id appreciate it, Its kinda weird having such an awkward effect on my character considering I use evil hunter a majority of the time.

This can sometimes be fixed with doing an emote. I.e. "/dance" or changing a costume.

It happens also with Siphoning Strikes/Attacks.

It's been around for a year, dunno if it'll be fixed anytime soon.

This problem with particle effects on weapons has been present since forever. It also applies to skills like Siphoning Attacks.

The effect doesn't refresh properly on killing an "x" mob, it glitches and also doesn't apply properly on cast, and it doesn't work properly on weapon swap. The effect is completely broken. There is an addon that fixes it, but it causes your character to freeeze for a second or so, so it is unusable.

Fortunately the skill itself seems to work fine although I wonder if anyone has tested on unchanged werewolfs post 1.6. It seems to porc very often on mine.

I don't care about the visual FX on my weapons.

I care about the visual FX on the undead/WW....

That is working as normal.
