Apologies if I'm the last one to the party on noticing this, but I just noticed my characters battleaxe has this odd steam/smoke circling it and coming off it. All of a sudden.

The only thing odd that's changed is I got disarmed by a Deathlord using a shout, so is this an effect of this? Should it be permanent like this, though?

Thanks.

Solved it, sorry! It was a little glitch with the Elemental Fury animation getting stuck on the weapon.

Thanks for letting us know what it was. I was scratching my head, about to ask what enchantments the weapon had, what mods you're running. . . .

Glad you got it sorted out.
