Regarding the Weapon Size "bugs"

The weapon size change on Tauren 2 handed weapons, and the weapon size change on Female human and Male Dwarf 1 handed weapons are all intended changes.

The weapon size change on Undead and Troll weapons are indeed bugs and they will be fixed in a future patch.

Q u o t e:


if we wanted to petition (allthough not petition because its against the rules, but you get my drift) how would we go about this, i mean, assuming we dont go down the paladin THREAT REDUCTION!?!?! route.


violating the forum rules is most certainly not the way to go. What you should do to voice your concerns is to post in a constructively in a thread were the topic is already being discussed, or in a new thread if no existing threads about the topic is to be found.

If you wish to post a suggestion to revert the change, then posting in the suggestions forum is most certainly highly recommended.

In this case, we have taken note of the concerns that have posted in this thread so far :-)

Q u o t e:
Is it also intended that the size is not the same when the weapon sheathed and in hand ?


Yes. Sheathed weapons on Female Humans and Male Dwarves getting larger is currently not considered a bug.

Clearly its an emotive subject that is generating a lot of strong responses.


We are aware of this indeed and your concerns have been noted.

While the original thought behind changing the Tauren weapon size was to reduce clipping with the ground while sheathed, we have decided that the final result went beyond our original desire. After further review of the change and with feedback from the community as well as the development team, we have decided to revert the change to tauren weapons while sheathed.

This change will be made in the next upcoming patch.

We would also like to thank the community for all the feedback and contructive discussion on this matter!
