  It is well known that when you switch from stationary/walking/gliding to running with a heirloom, a transitional action will be triggered, caused a smooth transition between different holding positions. Raptor's Claw, the new universal heirloom, is missing its transitional action from gliding to running, which makes the switch between hold positions weird and unnatural, like roughly pulling the knife back to the right hand side. However, Raptor's Claw can correctly trigger this action when switching from /walking to running. This transitional action on raptor's claw looks like turning the knife around the index finger. I hope the subsequent update of the game will solve this problem, after all, this is one of the most expensive paid items in Apex :->.

    @ad1acecfe9cc1dd8Are you referring to how some legends would drop the Raptors Claw during the inspect animation? Because if you are, this seem to be intended as some legends are better at handling the Raptors Claw, (such as Wraith), while others are not, (such as Wattson).

    Grrt had made a great video covering these animations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjZLxT1zPUc

    If your issue is different, could you provide a video of what's happening?

    @Midnight9746 Thank you but I dont mean such cases in inspection.

      It's a short episode of animation when characters start to sprint and It sustains about half a second, just like the action 2 i give.

      When characters slide, they will trigger the action 1 give. When you release the slide button and hold the forward button, the character continues to sprint. In fact, they trigger action 3 directly without action2 when holding Raptor's Claw. Under normal circumstances, the general heirloom will perform the sequence of actions like 1 to 2 to 3，which seems like a coherent series of actions. I understand Respwan may not treat this as a bug but so many people complained the weird actions of Raptor's Claw. I think the detail i mentioned contribute to part of such negative comments and Respwan can easily fix this without technical difficulties and extra works. My intention is to improve the action details and those who paid for this will glad to see it. thank you for your help and websites you provide:->

    @ad1acecfe9cc1dd8 Ah I see...

    The animation is suppose to be as follows:

    1) Pull out knife

    2) Spin knife

    3) Hold knife, blade down

    Rather than:

    1) Pull out knife

    2) Hold knife blade down

    Honestly, I would rather it spin when the heirloom is pulled out instead of skipping that animation. I'm not sure if this is intended or not, but to me, this looks like a bug. Thanks for the update!
