“Harbinger” Pose Study | February 20, 2026

Quick pose study of the pistol animation for the “Harbinger” elite spec from Guild Wars 2 (not to be confused with Malyck being the “Nightmare Harbinger,” or with “The Harbinger’s Path” comic) (I always thought it was an amusing decision they decided to name the elite with the same term. Such teases!). 

I remember when I first tried out the Harbinger spec on my reaper, I really enjoyed watching the animation for the pistol’s attack animation. I thought the posing done by the riggers/animators was fantastic, and I couldn’t resist doing a little study from the in-game pose.  

Unrelated to the above sketch – I’m not sure how this happened, but I might be formatting 2 comics for print this month/into next month. I’ll have more info next week, most likely. (It’s small, nothing major.)
