[BG] One handed weapon that looks like a spear

[th3gatekeeper]

Still crossing my fingers they will add DW for tanks

maybe with client control they can somehow figure how to copypasta DoK dualwield movements/animations to BG/SM, and maybe Slayer ---> IB, Choppa ---> BO, Mara ---> Chosen???

Would also love to see a BG handle 2h Swords, or maybe see SM handle a Halberd.
Heck, I would also love to see the original design of having WP wield a shield (though properly nerfed/balanced) one day.

animations are tied to skeletons, what a dok does a BG would with DW, what a SM does with a 2h sword so would a dok

So, I assume ducttaping animations isn't possible at all? That'd be a pity.

Iirc, there were a couple of skins (e.g.: Blorc + LotD 2h/Blorc + 1h shield skin) on live that were handled diffrently, are those instances considered animation breaks aswell or could they be reintroduced by chance? - Just asking out of curiosity.

thats the BOs greatsword animation, went nowhere, they just done have greatswords

E: Grr, the embed option doesn't like the timestamp. Its 6:37 onwards.

That very much looks like the basic Orc 1h rather than a specific 2h greatsword animation.

Abbd.: Its arguably hard to spot in that video given Larrison's kiting, lol. (Fixed the timestamp to account for that.)
Abbd.: Another instance of hit animation(s) at 7:53 onwards.

[Collateral]

It would be so amazing if we could somehow get that shield that has a sword skin for the BO. It's lore friendly after all, plus it looks badass

[Darosh]

Its the animation thats tied to greatsword, no ifs or buts.

[snip - finally figured it out.]

Animations are tied to skeletons, Orc skeleton handles greatswords like onehanded weapons - hence no animation breakage there.

Thats a 'duh' moment if I ever saw one - my apologies.

Just posting in here in hopes that someone might know.. Im looking for a 2H that looks KINDA like a WL Axe? Ive seen a BG running around with it... It has a LONG handle, and a more "square" or "rectangle" blade at the end... Looks more like an Axe then anything else..

beeing checking low level influence rewards... So far nothing... I suspect its a low level item since it doesnt look super unique - if it were a WL weapon or something... but somehow it can be used on a BG... Gotta find it

halloween event 2h weapon?
it's available from current event
it's not attracting for me though
