Arrows Stuck in Character

Post » Sat May 12, 2012 1:22 am

This is just a minor, aesthetic complaint, but I've noticed that arrows tend to stick in my character and never come out no matter how much time has passed or where I go and do... unless I get shot by another arrow and even then only in third-person. I would assume this is noticeable on all platforms, but I'm playing Skyrim on my PS3. It's bugging me. I mean... there was an arrow going straight through the center of my face, earlier, and it simply wouldn't disappear until I got shot, in third-person, by another arrow, I had the same thing happen with an arrow in my back, and now I've got two arrows stuck in my hip. I'm trying to admire my great-looking armor and the results of my work during the character creation, but it's hard to when I have an arrow penetrating my character's skull from his nose to the occipital bone. Has anyone else noticed this and which platform are you playing on?

I had an ice-shard stuck in my @$$ for a bit. Made it look like I was farting with a cool-mint fragrance.

Yeah, I had this problem too. Tried all sorts of things such as dropping and picking up arrows. I always play in first person so it's not much of a bother ... but agree it's worth posting in the forums. (PC Player)

I'm fairly sure I had an ice shard stuck in my character. Is it like a glowy light blue cone? I reloaded a save from an hour before because it just wouldn't go away. What causes the ice shards? Is it a frost spell? On xbox.

If your character has arrows stuck in them find a bandit or someone who has a bow, piss them off, let them shoot you, and the arrows will fade. I figured this out after running around for 4 hours with 2 arrows sticking out of my butt. It seems to be a one time glitch though, so once you fix it, it shouldn't happen again.

remove all arrows from your inventory. the ones in you are in your inventory.

OR: Restart the console or game (pc). After saving of course

i don't mind them: they're a quick way to know Lydia is still alive, going about her business (at least when they're in my back)
