[WP] Female WP off-hand

I just have a quick question regarding books for female WPs.

In the character panel, my character holds the book along the middle of the back of it, as does the male WPs. However, when drawn, she holds the book by the very top of the spine which looks really odd.

I'm simply wondering if there are any off-hand models which the female WP holds along the spine, as they should? Or are all skins held in this wonky fashion?

Best,
Saain

Hi Chinesehero,

Not sure of what relevance that is, seeing how I asked specifically about the off-hands, ergo me not using a 2h hammer. But thank you for your input, albeit sexist as it may be.

Pretty sure all off hands are modelled the same. You can raise a bug ticket though and hope for the best. If you do it right they might take it into consideration.

Sexist questions provoke sexist answers. Wait for someone suggesting a frying pan.

Zulnam,

Thank you very much for the reply! That is unfortunate. I'll have to try that then!

Abezverkhiy,

I struggle to see how the question I asked was sexist?

Nope. I asked ages ago regarding it, seems to be an oddity that can't be actually solved, does not belong to the item: all books you will equip will present the same problem.

Don't care about sexist comments, your great hammer will be always larger then their greatswords.

Book/hammer pose in character selection and paperdoll are recycled from Kotbs, which is why it looks awkward, especially with male WP.
As for the book, if you look, some female characters and Empire specifically have oversized weapons compared to the male counterparts, this is noticeable with the WP books as they clip through the hand. I think I heard that this was done by Mythic for the Korean launch, they really like girls with oversized weapons for some reason. Also the animations for holding a book and shield in general are shared so if the book position looks strange it might have to do with shield positioning.

Thank you for the answers! That is genuinely really interesting. Disappointing, but interesting!

Not sure if you can lock a thread, but my question has been sufficiently answered!
