While fighting The Caretaker, the engine’s purple hitbox appeared on my character’s wrists and remained visible throughout the fight. It only disappeared after my character died.

Hey Gus\_dev, interesting stuff.

What gauntlets were you running with?

What build of the game? (the small number right top corner)

The Nith Grovebinders Gauntlets.

The version was the 26863, the images are from a video I’ve recorded yesterday.

Currently, using gauntlets with Electric infusion causes the visual effect to appear with the wrong offset — it shows horizontally instead of vertically along the arm. This doesn’t happen every single time, but I’d say around 90% of the time.

Hey Gus\_dev,

those are the same gauntlets from your other topic?
