What is going on with the Artian Sword and Shield model?

[John Destiny]

Latest update apparently made it work the way it was supposed to. I guess it was supposed to be in a compact state until you unsheathe and then it becomes a full shield? But now the physics on it are all wonky. It tends to "float" around my arm like its not really attached. Anyone else notice this?

Yeah, the shield is floating around for me as well. Significantly noticeable when mounted and falling from a height, the shield trails behind you while falling until you land.

Mounting is just borked in general. Half the time you go under the whole monster lmfao.

...I really dislike the artian SnS, for numerous reasons.

But the shield on the max version, totally borked.

Im stupid and thought it was supposed to be like that because its "alien tech" but it really was weird to look at when its floating on your arm at all times.

i thought i was the only one with floating shield it looks jarring af

also is it me or sns feels extremely wobbly compared to world, like i dont have any control of my direction if i dont focus mode. normally i would orient myself with the weapon direction but sns just feels weird af

I thought i was crazy for this and went looking on the forum, searched specifically for "floating shield".

I just can't look at it, it is driving me nuts when im out of combat. It is flying everywhere when i run, it is impossibly annoying me for some reason. I hate that Artian is the best option for sns

"like its not really attached"
because it isnt, it literally is floating with bs mystical ancient tech keeping it relatively near your forearm
Regardless of how bad it looks, it is technically intended
