Arannya.8324 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hey folks, I am looking to craft the new dagger and was looking at a few videos on youtube showcasing it when I noticed that there seem to be two different types of animation on draw weapon: a rising ghostly charr or a marching ghost... can anyone advise the reason for this ? Is it down to individual settings ? Or maybe influenced by choosing to use the Gift of Magumma vs Gift of Desert ? Rising Charr: (common version) Marching Charr (06:00): (found in two separate videos created by french players) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Well, the one difference I see is one is standing still when the weapon is drawn, and one is moving when the weapon is drawn. Perhaps, that is the difference. (Of course, I did not watch the entire videos.) Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arannya.8324 Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hey I thought so too at first but then I watched the full video and there are a few moments when he’s perfectly still and casts the same animation (03:50)...he even changes race and gets the same effect standing still. I have found 2 videos created by two different French players with this animation... it’s really weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Then, perhaps it's a random animation. Sometimes, one; sometimes, the other. /shrug You could ask in the Forum Chat thing coming up, maybe. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Night/ Day effect maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arannya.8324 Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 I thought of the night/day effects but here is the 2nd video with that identical animation and it seems to be filmed during the day (unless I am mistaken) Wouldn’t want to spend a ton of gold to get random animations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I would. I would rather have 2, than just one. But, of course, that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arannya.8324 Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 I would prefer the rising charr one but still, having this dual animation show on the same legendary is truly odd... I am really surprised that nobody is questioning this, I would really like an explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 You can ask the CS Team; they may have the answer. Or you can ask at the Forum Chat coming up soon. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProtoGunner.4953 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 I imagine it's the graphics settings? Maybe the shittier one is just low details. Lots of those videos have rather low framerate, which indicates shit PCs and hence lower graphic settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arannya.8324 Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 Thank you, will do! Thanks for taking the time to respond. I am curious if they chose Gift of the Desert over Gift of Magumma... resulting in a completely different animation. I know it's a long shot but I cannot think of anything else. That would be huge though, implying two legendary effects on the same weapon.. That, or probably, they had early access to the weapon, recorded the showcase and meanwhile Anet altered the effect.

Ye I thought it could be down to individual settings also but that marching charr looks actually more complex than the rising one... I have no idea to be honest.

That's why I was wondering if it's individual settings or the Desert/Magumma option ... or these guys had early access to the wep... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Disgrace.4275 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 That is a weird 1. I know the dreamer bugs out sometimes on thief which shows no animation at all or only half of the animation, but having 2 different animations definitely doesn't look right. Hoping it's just a lame bug being a new legendary and wasn't properly tested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
