When you perform another /emote, all the attack skill animations (weapon glows red or yellow and etc) are converged as one.

i dont get why people keep saying energy minus sets are so obvious. my monk set is a protective icon and a smiting wand. both have -5 energy +5 armor.

I would drop quite a bit of money on a wand that had -5 energy. If it existed.

Um, no. Axes/Swords are the only negative energy one handed weapons, unless you've found something no one else in Guild Wars has seen. Pics, please. I don't think that it's possible for prot icons drop with negative energy either. At any rate, until you post pics, your claim is unfounded.

I don't care if you believe me. I know you're wrong. At any rate, stop trolling the thread.

If you didn't care, you wouldn't have mentioned it in the first place.

Anyway, the bug is easily reproduced in a very short amount of time:
  1. Take piece of armor off, place in inventory
  2. /dance
  3. Drag and drop the piece of armor from your inventory onto the armor slot in the inventory window. Simultaneously with the release of the armor onto the armor slot, hold down S, E, W, or Q (any movement key).
It might take a bit of playing around with it to get it the first few times you try it, but once you do, you're golden. Your weapons will be hidden from display for the rest of the match until you do another /emote.

This bug was discovered by Slooty Booty and passed on to me. We did further testing to further refine the restrictions of the bug. Anyway, the reason that I'm posting this is so that everyone would know and would be on an even playing field. Information and knowledge of an exploit shouldn't be able to influence a playoff game, and this bug has the potential to do so if the information isn't out there for public dissemination.
Heh. I heard about something like this a long time ago, always wondered how it worked. A couple guildies were talking about a warrior that was going around hitting things in FoW without a weapon I think I'll try it out for fun, but guess it'll get nerfed soon for quality assurance purposes. Thx for getting this information public so it can be fixord.
