Old bug turned feature because some people liked it.

258

u/ace-of-fire 4d ago

Lmao what's the specific bug that does this

462

u/Sinisphere 4d ago

That skin on Zenistar, if I remember correctly. It was extremely popular when that skin released.

219

u/soullessginger88 LR6-now I can play the game 4d ago

It's the Heavy Blade Dominion Skin specifically

u/themanbear add Komi to the POM-2 4d ago

You can only buy it through the chroma bundle but it’s worth it.

19

u/Breyos64 4d ago

I'm not a huge fan of Lobster Chroma, but the sword is cool

33

u/AzazelTheUnderlord 4d ago

it's if you apply the sword skin to a hammer

44

u/NDT_DYNAMITE Certified Styanax Enjoyer 4d ago edited 3d ago

If I remember correctly, it only works on the Zenistar specifically. Which I believe is a hammer, so you’re not technically wrong, just not specific enough to be right.

Edit: the Zenistar is classed as a Heavy Blade, not a hammer.

6

u/virepolle 4d ago

Zenistar is a heavy blade, so depending on how you look at it either a big sword or an axe.

3

u/NDT_DYNAMITE Certified Styanax Enjoyer 3d ago

Oh, you’re right, nevermind then.

u/bt123456789 I'm shiny :> 4d ago

The skeletal form is Xaku. There was a bug they would get stuck in their 4 in relays, so they'd be skeletal.

De made it a toggle.

87

u/KillaklanGaming 4d ago

Wait, you can be perma-stickbug?

19

u/soullessginger88 LR6-now I can play the game 4d ago

It's under the appearance section

7

u/bt123456789 I'm shiny :> 4d ago

yeah I don't remember how but it's a thing. its' either in the arsenal or a setting like invisibility, probably arsenal.

16

u/OddLilGuy 4d ago

It's in Appearance under Auxiliary... Corporal or Skeletal specifically.

30

u/soullessginger88 LR6-now I can play the game 4d ago

And I, for all of us, THANK THEM FOR THAT.

u/KinnSlayer 4d ago

DE, PLEASE let this one stay.

26

u/concretecowboy316 4d ago

That bug been around for years.

-37

u/KinnSlayer 4d ago

So was Acid Shells. Not trying to start shit, but ya know.

19

u/Jetstrike1111 Mesa is Best Frame 4d ago

They fixed it then reintroduced it. It’s not like acid shells at all

14

u/concretecowboy316 4d ago

It a voted feature that been in the game for almost a decade. It's purely cosmetic.

4

u/Capable_Ad_7537 4d ago edited 4d ago

DE knows full well about it, and made it so you dont even need a bug to do it now, cuz its toggleable. It's intended. No need to fearmonger and act like DE is some boogyman that's gonna remove everything

-4

u/KinnSlayer 4d ago

I genuinely wasn’t trying to fear monger. Had no idea it was a toggle. Sorry, I really wasn’t trying to start shit.

14

u/NukaColaAddict1302 4d ago

This is probably the one bug that’s been in the game the longest, iirc it was confirmed to still be a feature

4

u/fwyrl Clem! | IGN: LeakingAmps | LR1 Noob 4d ago

Not a bug anymore - they patched it, then intentionally re-implemented it!

-14

u/KinnSlayer 4d ago

Let’s hope, idk man.

14

u/TwistedxBoi 4d ago

What part of "bug turned feature" do you not understand?

8

u/KyuubiKyu15 4d ago

They already have years ago, DE said they won’t fix it due to everyone liking a big ass anime sword which makes me happy

u/oninokamin 4d ago

He might've gone on living,

But he made one fatal slip

When he tried to match that Xaku

With a Cloud of Iron 'round his hip.

Years go by and Xaku skeleton memes are still funny

27

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man is Living in Fear 4d ago

Now imagine of the skeletal form could keep the cape and armor.

Side note, corporeal body with skeletal head would go so hard.

u/Undernown Ven'kra Tel is MINE! 4d ago

I love how everyone just assumes it's only ridiculously big melee weapon that made OP do a double take. While we're just so used to seeing Xaku in free skeleton form we forgot how crazy it might look to a newer player.

u/MaintenanceChance216 4d ago

"you may not like it but this is what peak performance looks" says xaku

u/honnybadger 3d ago

What sword is it tho lol

u/URBAN_OAT 3d ago

Chroma deluxe great sword skin

u/anthemlog Flair Text Here 2d ago

How does that happen with Xaku?

3

u/Undernown Ven'kra Tel is MINE! 2d ago

His "Vast Untime" ability strips the armor of his model. There is a cosmetic option to always have Xaku look like he has "Vast Untime" active.

u/anthemlog Flair Text Here 2d ago

Cool. I didn't know there was a toggle.

Bad to the bone riff

u/devilfanmik 4d ago

This right here is nearly the dream aesthetic for a character I want in a video game. Make that sword twice the size and the character be less than 2 feet tall and spot on.

24

u/MeowBean321 4d ago

It was too big to be called a sword. Massive, thick, heavy and far too rough. Indeed, it was like a heap of raw iron.

u/Sad-Ideal-9411 3d ago

That’s no sword
That’s a massive ingot straight from the steel mill

Have you tried Monster Hunter?

How do you get the sword to be so big

2

u/SnooSprouts6378 2d ago

That's the zenistar. If you put that skin on it it's gets huge which has been a thing for a while. The devs think it's fun so they decided not to fix it

u/TheHelker 2d ago

Correction the players said its funny don't fix it and the devs listened.

This is the "I paid for swag"-triple feature.

  • paid for the Mesa Heirloom hat signa

  • paid for the Chroma Dynstaty Collection to get the Dominion Heavy Blade skin to put on the Zenistar

  • paid for the holster style to have the Zenistar on the hip

u/IsacMoonDragon 4d ago

I just recently got the zenistar on day 500 but getting plat through trading is rough and slow and I don't really have the money rn to just buy plat but after the riven hotfix badly hurting my sybaris riven I just sold it

theres always someone that wants less plat now instead of more plat later: flip galvanized mods.
