Not the new combat animations, but animation issues nonetheless...

The "Blacksmith" personality preview (I assume from upcoming crates) does not smoothly loop for the walk animation. It seems to glitch out every 4 steps

The idle also has the prop hammer move of its own accord at times. It seems to slide up and down through the character's hand.

The ally resurrection animation that your character performs while in Werewolf form fails to play:

For reference, this is what the animation should look like:

Thank you both for pointing out these bugs. The dev team followed up to note that they have fixes for both of these issues in the works. So these animation issues bugs have fixes on the way.

New animations are just awful. As soon as you will release them, I can easily predict there will be a general insurrection on the forum. Please have a look at Epic-buttrk YouTube video for a detailed explanation.

The only big problem here is we really need a mouse and keyboard comparison. All his footage is up in the air because of his controller situation doing random stuff on the pts. Hard variable to look past when we start talking about zos messing with his input support and hes playing with 3rd party software to convert inputs.

Good findings, but needs to be checked to rule out that whole issue first. I can hop on later and see if I can replicate his animation issues on keyboard.

EDIT: I did some testing with various skills from my usual dizzy stamsorc kit. PCNA mouse and keyboard

I didnt notice any parsing difference or time delays in skills firing or not registering.

Dizzy weaving inbetween hits the character flinches extremely fast. This is probably from the post dizzy animation having the weapon to the character's right and then flinching back to the left within milliseconds

Executioner actually looks really clean.

Tons of other buff skills like critsurge seem to do similar things like dizzy where parts of the skill just make your character model disjoint and flail around like its the conjuring.
