Storm bow animation

Mods not sure if this goes here, sorry if It should be in another place.

I had been having the same lag spikes as mentioned by another post.

After the first major lag the animation on my storm bow stopped. i logged out and back in and it still will not animate. FDS, IDS and fellblade is still working.

Thought this was weird. I had a few more drop in UW so I tried equiping them and the annimation still did not work.

Anyone else notice this?

This happens all the time, since the beginning of Guild Wars.
If you stay in the same instance long enough, sometimes animations for certain weapons/environmental effects will just stop. It has to do with your computer running out of virtual memory to process the animation. It will fix itself if you shut your computer off.

This will happen to all animated weapons if you stay in the game for more than 5 hours.

that's weird though that only the stormbow stopped and not everything else. how long were u logged into the game for? could be something to do with the universal lag we have been getting lately i suppose, if u think ur lag spike caused it. did it still not work after a comp restart?
