If you go through all the efforts to have nice custom graphics for an armed monster, DROD will sometimes show the wrong part of the image when the NPCs moves over oremites or shallow water.

There is no base NPC type that makes this work - armed custom NPCs with an unarmed base and armed custom NPCs with an armed base both break, just in different ways.

Really it shouldn't even matter if the base NPC is armed - the game should only care if the NPC has a weapon set or not.

EDIT: In truth, breaks are only occuring with an unarmed base NPC. However, the help files incorrectly describe which row will be used for armed wading and unarmed wading.
