As shown in the picture. It was working before the change to the quarter thing.
Also note the spaghetti of chains and whip on my mainhand. I don't know what's happening with it.

I had the same issue with my whip-master Garrus. If I had to guess, the hak got removed or isn't being read properly by the server, as the bag-on-hand usually happens when a weapon part is being read as missing (ex: ye olde gonnes missing the crossbow arms)

I just noticed this too and was about to screen shot/post myself.

I really hope that this gets resolved soon. The new whips with their amazing hook and ball options and VFX really blew my mind. I want them back.

The whips stopped becoming bags when I entered the PGCC on 11/17/24 in the evening.

However, the weapon VFX are still not restored.

Still looking like a bag for live. Guldorand server. Haven't got time to jump to other servers.
The sprite was moved from being MIDDLE -> TOP.
And yes, VFX is not visible.

I can see the updated skins showing up when I changed TOP sprite, but something broke when your whip was previously bugged.
No matter how many times I click forms and colors of the MIDDLE sprite, it does not resolve the issue. Also tried changing BOTTOM sprites too- nothing fixes it.

This should be fixed now. If the problem persists, the weapon needs to be replaced. Just inform the team.
