I had the best bug ever!!! Outfit bug, axe as a staff<3

Tapio75

Yea.. So i was upgrading my gear, and after i was done, the weapon on outfit did not change with weapon swap, it was stuck on lightning staff..

I have an sorc with 2h axe and a staff in other slot..

I must say, that the 2 jhander ability animations work wonderfully with the staff, the character uses the axe stance when weapon is unsheathed, but the visual shows staff.. Now its quite some fun to play with this character as long as the bug lasts.. It just feels like, that when on distance, i attack with magick, when the enemy is in front of me, i switch to melee bo-staff style combat.

I do hope they fix this bug quickly, by giving people the option to override 2 handed weapons with staff visuals.. Would really make playing much more fun!!

PS: When the axe is sheathed, the character carries the staff in her right hand very casually, looks great and this should be an option as well for everyone, the floating staff on the back looks rather stupid.

Scroll few posts down for images.

That sounds really cool. Any pictures? Does it persist after logging back in? Could you try to reproduce the bug on another character? I would love to try this.

That's so cool! I think it should be a feature...in outfit vacation you can n also change stances or how weapons are held

Indeed, perpgaps a "Personality station" is also needed where you can combine emotes and parts of personalities, to make your own that fits the character.

One animation i always long the most, is the walking with staff like the Prophet does it.. I walk a lot and this would be really great animation.

This lovely bug did not survive riding a horse. Now im with that axe again

But 2h weapons should be able to look like staves and perphaps otherwise around as well.. At least sword can be used to channel magicka just like staves.

Pretty funny!

Reminds me of the permanent Aedric Spear bug caused by that AD quest amulet you wear that comments when you kill a humanoid.

I've had this as well, I've also had one where although my weapons are not out they are still in my hands.
