Apocryphabound weapons issue - does not display on your character's back

twigbot11k · June 8

When you apply these weapon looks, nothing shows up on your back when the weapon is put away.

Please adjust these weapons to display when put away. Was hoping to have a nice transparent neon green visual staff on my back.

That's the whole point of bound weapon styles.

Pretty sure it says in the description that it disappears when stowed.

Ha, it does, _after_ I bought it. Nothing mentioned that before I bought it. This is NOT a cool feature. Request stands, please change it to show on character's backs.

And if some favor it vanishing on the back, give us a choice with it.

Heck maybe do a proper UI for all weapons, let us decide to hide or show it, on putting it away.

The fact that they're hidden is the entire reason that I bought these, but I think it would be better if we could see this in the preview window.

The implication is that the character is summoning the weapons, which is cool. Having them persist on the character's back would make it seem like they were perpetually ethereal items, which has happened with a small number of outfit elements and to me doesn't match the more grounded style of the outfit system (while being possible in the lore).

Your request versus the request of everyone else, the odds of you getting what you want are extremely unlikely, these are bound weapons, keyword BOUND, the whole purpose of these weapons is for them to be hidden when you sheathe them

ESO devs should do a UI for the choice to show them when put away or not.

No reason to split us into camps of for or against how these weapons work, when you can satisfy everyone on this with a smartly done UI toggle to hide/show weapons when sheathed.

If I could decide on a per-character (maybe per-bar) basis whether weapons showed up or not, I would have bought the season 0 tome. That feature would have made the Monster Hunter personality usable, in my opinion.
