The new Leonhardt sword for Warden (from the Fangs of the Otherworld event) seems to be inverted for some reason. I'm pretty sure the sword wasn't intended to be put into the game like that, since the half guard is now facing towards the Warden, leaving the hands open. Pretty sure it was meant to point downwards to protect the hands. That would mean the blade, which currently has its tip pointing downwards, should probably also have it facing upwards to somewhat resemble a Messer.
Hopefully this is just a bug that can easily be fixed
