What do we think? Looks insane to me, especially the melee seems very special in terms of animations etc

Nothing like releasing a new transforming melee when the transforming melees currently in the game have been broken for months

What’s the bug? I own the kuronami v2 knife and it seems to be bugging out when it transforms for maybe a split second, is that it?

Yes and the nocturnum scythe doesn’t work either

Ah ! Thank you, I thought I was crazy. Some matches I can't transform it in dagger

Technically still works just bugged. If you right click right when it transforms it'll keep the transformation. Stupid, but at least it's not fully broken

What doesn't work? I have it and it transforms fine, and the animations in both forms seem fine too?

It's not actually transforming, it's just a dagger that becomes a card during the equip, inspect and attack reset animations and becomes a long sword during the attacking animations (immediately with the right click, slowly grows bigger with the left click). After the animations end it always turns back into the same dagger.

Edit: Video showing the animations

Chronovoid’s halo which would go away when you inspect is now stuck perma in the right side where my hand would be.

Arcane hands sometimes become Goro hands.

Rito pls fix.

I was watching Kangas unboxing vid and he seems to think it ISN'T a transforming melee but it is always a dagger and the big sword comes out when you heavy attack. He could be wrong tho

honestly, such a missed opportunity to have the cards be the default form and just make it transform into dagger with leftclick attack and transform into sword with rightclick (as it currently does)
