range weapons displaying

[Thegreatmonkey]

Hello,

I just like to know why range weapons do not display on the backs of chars? Currently right now I'm skilling up throwing and all I see is my char reaching behind him then the boomerang pops out of thin air he toss it and then grabs it on the return and then puts it to his side where it pops out of his hand, making it look like it when into a back hole or something. Is it really that hard to have the range weapons display on the back of our toons?

We spoke to the development team about displaying bows and guns when they are equipped. They looked into the possibility of doing this, but since there are a lot of tasks both system wise as well as animation wise, unfortunately they came to the conclusion that it would be too difficult.
