To be honest, their combat position is almost identical to a position you would hold while firing a handgun with a prety strong kick... The robes makes it hard to spot. I'd say this is a huge and yet subtle easter egg that not many people notice.

Honestly I think that this combat animation could need an overwork.
Suggestions to improve NW:
- Dualspec
- Better rewarding foundry and foundry pvp maps
- Custom PvP leagues with leaderboards instead of the current 'matchmaking'.
- Armory
- make jumping cost stamina (to reduce hopping in pvp)
One of the reasons I'm not playing CW right now is the combat animation. It's nice to blow someone up, but when you walk away triumphantly like a <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> crab, it ruins it.
It probably accounts for why so many CWs hop around constantly like idiots. Hopping like an idiot is better than looking like you should be wearing a bicycle helmet in case you fall.

Why is it that when cw's are in combat, they walk like they just got a atomic wedgey?
I actually cringe when my CW is waddling like that! It's worst in Fardelver Crypts when everyone is running away from the adds and I'm hobbling along behind them like I've had a brown trousers moment.
The worst animation award goes to Icy Rays. I mean. good lord. CWs will summon a giant flaming rock from the sky and push it, they'll summon a lightening storm in their hand, they'll do a little dance with fire all over them, they'll toss a giant exploding snowball.. but a couple little hunks of ice make them cringe like a 3 year old? I mean... come on.

As an 8 month-old CW I totally agree with that. I've spent MILLIONS (well, not really, just a couple of hundrets of thousands) A.D. to make her look classy but at the same time stylish and fightful.
Although, as you say (and the other guy above you said) - looking like having an atomic wedgey or a pinapple stuck up her аss ruins everything... I'm so frustrated that I start jumping like an idiot for the fighting position to wear off.

Pisses me off, a lot.
Not me, I have a token of free movement
Seriously though, it's never really bothered me but it does look peculiar, indeed.
