If anyone is wondering about the new Grim Focus skill style, Malacath's Fury...

...you still have the red glow to the weapon when you have any stacks, or, in my case, a red glowing ball above my shoulder since I use a Gloombound Staff style. The only thing that changes is that instead of firing a red spectral bow you hurl a ball of bluish light that streaks from your hand - at least, that's how it looks to me. It happens so fast it's hard to see.

the fact it doesnt change the red glow means i dont want it

I foolishly bought this because I had been looking forward to a Malacath related skill style since it got datamined. I have never felt so robbed and I've played this game for years. The red glow is still there. The attack itself is just a damn light green ball with a poorly animated throw. Terrible.

Same, I grabbed it like a chump. I should have checked here first

Probably one of my top wishlisted skills to get a skill style and one of the most disappointing first skill styles. I'm still kinda holding out some hope it's a bug and have asked in bug report if it is...if it's not, I hope they are willing to do better with the skill in future styles with Grim Focus.

At least we know getting a skill style doesn't automatically disqualify a style from getting more styles sooner considering there are multiple skills that have 2-3 styles despite others having 0. Though I personally wish we had more skill style options in general for all styles.

I would’ve been a little happier if at least instead of the red glow, the color had changed to match the color of the skill. I know it’s too much to ask for the glow to go away completely since we’ve been asking for that for so many years now. 😞

It doesn't even change the glow color? That's criminal.

I would consider buying if it changed the glow. Really doesn’t make sense that it doesn’t.

Well, that settles it then. If the red glow is not affected by the skill style then there is no reason to even consider it. Pity, I was hoping for a reskin of the glow.

That's how I see it too... I am glad that I didn't purchase it. Throwing a ball also seems ridiculous.
Who comes up with these ideas? There are so many cool ideas from the community, and the devs still push all kinds of changes or options none really wants.

the new jabs is cool but yeah not so much the spec bow.

I wonder if this is intentional?

Malacath’s Fury is a premium Skill Style, as it changes the whole animation, not just a recolor, maybe the red glow was left on accident?
