Hi ZOS,

One of my sorcs is a lightning mage, but the lightning staff standing pose (when holding the staff) is messed up. It's different than the general destro staff pose.

He looks like he's in pain. It's a very unnatural position.

Can you please look into this and have it fixed to be the normal destro staff pose (or at least a more natural pose if it's intended to be different)?

Thank you!

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom

    What's your other weapon? There's a weapon swap bug where your character will be holding weapon A like weapon B (example, trying to hold DW weapons like a bow... yeah, not the wisest), but I'm not sure if it's been actually fixed or just allegedly fixed.

    It is not a bug. Restoration, Fire/Ice and Lightning each have their own stance. It was changed many months ago, maybe over a year ago (they all had the same stance before).
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Pics added to the OP (although I don't know why people can't just go equip the staves to see...). Clearly the lightning staff is different from the other two, which are the same. The lightning staff pose is gimped up and looks super unnatural. :grimace:

    Abeille is right. The stances were changed quite some time ago. Resto staff is completely different, lightning slightly different from fire/ice. If you take a look at the way the heavy attacks work it makes sense to give lightning a different stance (channeled heavy attack) compared to fire/ice (charged heavy attack).

    Why are ice and fire the same then? Why change one and not the others? :/
