Transmogrification

[Mamazlo]

Hello, there is a sword called the "Skullforge Reaver." Many players, myself included, use it because of how the model sits on the back—and because it looks cool.
Personally, I have an issue where the sword slides down to my waist after every death, after every game update, and even if I haven't logged in for more than five hours. I wouldn't have started a separate thread about this, BUT when I saw the latest update (which allows two people to sit on benches), I started to feel the sword issue was more serious. Is there any hope it will be fixed, or will I have to keep spending 1–5 tokens a day on it?
I’ve heard that this happens not only with this sword but with ALL items carried on one's back.
I hope for a positive response, though we’ll see how things turn out—I realize you have a mountain of work.

I’m with the OP on this one. Transmog is genuinely more important than benches for lazy Gnomes.

I fully support the author. I, like him, transmog weapons that are worn on my belt. But since I play a gnomes, my weapon sinks into the ground textures when worn on my belt. That's why I'm transmogging my back specifically with this sword. Please make it so the sword doesn't slide down to my belt.

Or should I make it so that, since my swords pierce the ground, they leave a mark like they scrape the floor? With sparks! With dust! It's a joke, of course, but for me this is a serious matter. I transmog so my sword can be worn on my back, not constantly spend Fashen Coins after each deconnect to move it from my belt to my back.

We should just have the ability to choose whether a weapon (1H swords, axes and maces) will be sheathed on the belt or the back when transmogging.

The way it works right now (as per TWoW) is that the weapon's sheathed position is tied to the one you are actually equipping: having the ZG Warblades will make your mogs sheathe on your back, whereas having most others will sheathe them on the belt.

As for the final result: when using transmogrification, the weapon's position changed depending on the model you swapped it for. So, do you consider it a bug that a transmogrified sword moves to the back, even though I’m actually carrying a mace at my waist? If so, that defeats the whole purpose of transmogrification...

Well, here's some more news: after the update, my sword moved from my back to my belt...

[Mamazlo]

Yesterday, after the updates, my sword's transmog reset twice, and this morning I logged in to find the sword hanging at my waist again instead of on my back... it's just laughable.

[Mamazlo]

Now I have a new problem: after teleporting to the tavern using the stone, the transmogrification on ALL my items disappears completely.

Another update—and my sword shifted from my back to my belt...

[Mamazlo]

I bought a stone with a 30-minute cooldown from the shop, and every time I teleport, my transmog completely disappears. I have to restart the game to get it back—and I have to do this constantly... it’s incredibly annoying. On top of that, I spent 24 tokens in just 10 days just to move my one-handed sword from my belt to my back; it’s simply absurd.
