Warrior whirlwind bug: Polearm offhand doesn't hit

Mjello.

I would’ve posted this bug report on the bug report forum on US, except I don’t have a level 10 character there so I can’t…
(I find it hilarious that the ingame bug report redirects to a forum I can’t post on)

Anywho, the bug:
On my warrior in WOTLK prepatch so did I go fury for Titan’s Grip and am now offhanding a greenie polearm I found.

Bug: The polearm offhand doesn’t hit when using Whirlwind.

I can only assume that this might have something to do with the fact that polearms traditionally were never in the offhand slot (same as staves, I guess), or something.

I recorded a video of it here:

Also another bug you can see at 0:18; when I switch the polearm to the mainhand and axe to offhand so does my stance change to a standard 2h wielding stance.

I’m pretty sure that wielding Polearms with Titan Grip is actually a bug in of itself, you shouldn’t be able to use Polearms with it, you never could during WOTLK.

I guess that might be it; now that you mention it, the description on Titan’s Grip does state “Allows you to use 2handed swords, axes and maces in one hand.”

Curious.

"Mists of Pandaria Patch 5.4.0 (2013-09-10): Titan’s Grip now works with Polearms. "

I’m guessing the code might be muddled with some of the later code or something?

Clearly, unless they decided to allow Polearms be used as an undocumented change and didn’t consider how it would actually work in the game? No idea, but almost certainly would probably have something to do with it not working properly.
