Sorry, I just couldn't make myself call it a Crab Spider bug...

Anyway, post level 24, after getting my spider arms outfit, I was overcome by curiosity and asked myself "Self, what would happen if I tried to use the attacks that come from my spider arms while in a 'halloween' costume that doesn't HAVE them?"

So I switched to my PPD enforcer outfit (the only one I have a permanent code for so far) and attacked something...

All of the ranged attacks come out of it's right foot...

Well, except for Suppression, which seems to half-and-half out of the right foot, and out of thin air above his shoulders.

I haven't tried Frenzy yet (the only 'melee' [PBAoE] attack I've taken so far), may need to try that shortly.

Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas
Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

Crab backback, my right foot!

/well, somebody was probably going something similar anyway.

August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.

Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012
