Frequency: Can be reproduced at any time
World name: Zodiark
Character name: Thea Pico
Class/Level: Warrior/Dragoon/Paladin, 100
Steps:
1. Equip the Vanguard Armor of Fending or Maiming as your visual appearance.
2. Perform an animation that crosses your arms, such as /lean, or certain cutscene gestures.
3. The spiked mesh on the character's right shoulder will twist out of shape on a lower point.
Note: Only tested on female hrothgar.



Edit: I'm realizing the spiked mesh appears to have a twisting issue even in idle animations. I checked an NPC in Solution Nine, and it appears to affect them equally.
