I don't own a wraith's heirloom, but I see a little bit of sparkle when you run with it. The way it does the electric thing comes from the age of the heirloom I assume, because kunai was the first heirloom and it was made with different graphics back then. I would love for it to sparkle like revenant's scythe does.
It's not about the old graphics back then, it was completely fine before the raiders collection event yesterday. Kunai completely lost it's fancy electric effect while sprinting. Those little sparkles are still there, i'm talking about the lightning effect specifically, it's just not there anymore. i can still see it little bit while inspecting, but while sprinting it just looks like i'm holding a basic knife. It's hard for me to explain but anyone with Kunai will easily understand what i'm talking about. Kunai used to show electric lightning effect around the hand near fingers while running till yesterday update.

Hi, from my testing I'm still seeing the electric effect but it's much more subtle than it used to be.
Comparing it to some videos of the old effect it's reading to me as more of a bug fix - it looks more "correct" to me now than the old, bigger flashes - but I'll poke some folks on Monday to double check.
If you happen to have some clips from your side can you upload them to youtube and add the link here, just so I can ensure what I'm seeing my side matches what you're seeing.https://youtu.be/HPDi4idMOQQ
From the start of the video you can see how it was before the event update, and from 15 seconds you can see how it is now. It looks non-existent compared to before. I don't think it was intentional since the effect is still there when inspecting (although subtle) but usually just playing the game running around it's completely missing. It's the first heirloom of the game so it doesn't have any fancy animations like new one...i just hope it wasn't intentional because i'll be extremely sad if they removed the only good thing from that heirloom on purpose. It just looks like a simple knife now instead of some mythical artifact like before.
Also i attached a screenshot, you can see the highlighted area that line just ends abruptly on both ends of the blade, it wasn't like this before. So i'm pretty sure something is messed up with the Kunai because all these problems appeared only after the Raiders Event update few days ago.- EA_DavidThanks, I'll pass that on.
