I crafted the Charrslayer shield, and the avatar looks way cooler than the actual skin when I wear it. The avatar looks like it has a bunch of Charr Fur and Horns, but the skin is actually almost 2 dimensional...not very nice looking. Just seeing if anyone else has this problem

I get that with a caged shortbow, sometimes its 3D, but others it actually turns 2D and you can actually pan the camera in front of it and it'l be 1 pixel wide lol

Yeah, the icon looks very different. It would be nice if crafters had a bigger preview image that popped up.

This is why I hate the Exalted Aegis, too. It would be great if it had some width

my shield doesn't seem to have any horns on it at all, it looks like pieces of cheap leather just hovering all over the place,

heres the pic from guildwiki, the official wiki doesn't have a pic, is this really what its supposed to look like, the item icon definitely looks like it has some dark horns or something coming out of the top and bottom of the shield

Have had this problem with sheilds in the past, but they were always fixed eventually. I dont believe the char sheild is meant to look 2D, just a detailing issue that was overlooked.

Ugh, this has got to be the ugliest shield. I, too, thought it would be cool-looking, only to buy it and be severely depressed by it. It's not even worth the armor buff vs. Charr. Seriously. Just salvage it and hope you get back a monstrous item or something.

The upside is the new Charr Shield from the BMP is pretty sweet.
