Details: In the R41 release notes, it said:

• Gaia's Heart: Fixed Gaia's Heart so it can be used in either hand.

@hroth, Your reporting of this issue is appreciated. It has been added to the Bug Reporting System for Development Team review.

 

Thanks @Gamician. Same goes for the Frozen Tear of the Titans, although a release note never mentioned this one it seems like it would be in the same boat as the Gaia's Heart.

 

The change mentioned in the patch notes was pulled right after R41 went live because while it looked good and was ready to go, it turned out it was causing a whole other set of issues with avatars on the tech side. Ultimately the design had to be re-considered and is currently intended to only be used in one hand. This goes for both Gaia's Heart and the Frozen Tear of the Titans. We had a forum thread going about it at the time, but that was under the prior release. I'm sorry about that.
