Help, Ice Wraith head stuck on my char's feet...

Post » Fri Dec 14, 2012 7:24 am

Hello,

Ive just visited Paarthunaax for the first time and while fighting a frost Wraith on the way to the top , somehow a weird visual glitch appeared. It seems that an Ice Wraith's head is stuck beneath my character's feet.

Can anyone please help, I don't know how to get rid of that head that it keeps resizing itself and emanating fog.

First time Ive seen this bug and can't get rid of it.

Help please

Ice Wratih Effects.

I hate to say this, but reloading a save from before the thing got stuck is the only way to resolve this one. I have an explanation as to why this happens, but it is on my other machine.

It has to with the game "equipping" an effect on your character. Usually this is some magical glow or after effect. But, since the Ice Wraith is basically a animated magical effect, this one seems to get stuck on the character from time to time. This rare weirdness has been going on since Morrowind.
