EDIT: At the time of this post, I didn't know there was a real fix for this. Here is a working method of fixing it posted by user Nachyoz
EQUI_Inventory.xml can be located in your everquest install folder. Mine is C:\Program Files\EverQuest\uifiles\Velious

You can instead delete the whole line (line 1944)
</Size>
<Animation>A_ClassAnim07</Animation>
</StaticAnimation> to
</Size>
</StaticAnimation> Then find this line (about 22 lines down)
<Style_Sizable>false</Style_Sizable>
</Screen> and add the line "<Pieces>ClassAnim</Pieces>" so
<Style_Sizable>false</Style_Sizable>
<Pieces>ClassAnim</Pieces>
</Screen> Whole block looks like this
<StaticAnimation item= "ClassAnim">
<ScreenID>ClassAnim</ScreenID>
<Location>
<X>10</X>
<Y>178</Y>
</Location>
<Size>
<CX>64</CX>
<CY>128</CY>
</Size>
</StaticAnimation>
<Screen item = "IW_CharacterView">
<ScreenID>IW_CharacterView</ScreenID>
<RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition>
<Location>
<X>10</X>
<Y>178</Y>
</Location>
<Size>
<CX>64</CX>
<CY>128</CY>
</Size>
<Style_VScroll>false</Style_VScroll>
<Style_HScroll>false</Style_HScroll>
<Style_Transparent>false</Style_Transparent>
<TooltipReference>Drop Item Here to Auto Equip</TooltipReference>
<DrawTemplate>WDT_Inner</DrawTemplate>
<Style_Titlebar>false</Style_Titlebar>
<Style_Closebox>false</Style_Closebox>
<Style_Minimizebox>false</Style_Minimizebox>
<Style_Border>true</Style_Border>
<Style_Sizable>false</Style_Sizable>
<Pieces>ClassAnim</Pieces>
</Screen> This will auto pick the correct animation for the character loaded.
