Since U49, there are still some unfinished/unsatisfying aspects about the visual rework.
1. "Molten Weapons, Cooled" should be available for all existing hues of the basic Skill Styles. They should be released in tandem.
2. We were told during U49 PTS that the look of Earthspike Mantle is still being worked on. This was not resolved in U50.
3. Animations with hidden/disappearing weapons: I am really unhappy about the fact that the new animations for Searing Strike and Dragon Blood are no longer displaying weapons. The new Dragon Blood animation can be made compatible with all weapon types, if the weapons and hands are being rotated appropriately. The Searing Strike animation seems to have been designed with the intention of hiding weapons, but I believe that is a horrible choice. Please reconsider or at least try to provide an animation that is compatible with all weapon types. Hiding weapons is extremely immersion breaking and it is not a worthwhile tradeoff for making animations look "exciting".
As I said before, except for these points I found the update to be done quite well from a visual perspective. I recommend you to address these issues to round off the package.
