Once again, it's impossible to properly see what the skill style looks like before purchasing. I found a video but the camera is behind the caster so you can't actually see the beam.

One order of Fatcarver: Aetherius aka Fatecarver Purple, coming right up!18 -

✭✭I like this skill style, but not "2000 crowns" like :'(
Fatecarver is the most mild skill which we can see from other dds in our groups, so I don't understand complaints about it at all.
If I knew that other people can't see my skill style, I would never buy it
It the reason why I ignore very cool Winter-themed skill styles currently in store - they are not shown if we select to hide ally effects.
Here is how new Fatecarver style looks for other people, pretty cool with those cosmic particles!

Don't have a video but it's just a purple beam. That and it makes a slightly different (and imo more pleasant) sound.1 -

✭✭✭The colouring looks interesting, almost void-like with a touch of arcane.
Unfortunately I can't really see where it fits into any of the class sub-themes though, it's just slightly too purple and cloudy for Sorc's "Dark Magic" that is more bluish and crystal themed and no other class outside of NB skill styles really has any purple theming for their skills (NB skill styles are more black with a faint purple tinge than the full purple shown here).0 -

Many thanks! It's not exactly what I thought it'd be but it's quite pretty, I think I'll end up getting it. The dark bit right in front of the player is a little weird but I know ZOS can only do so much with a recolor.Turtle_Bot wrote: »The colouring looks interesting, almost void-like with a touch of arcane.

Arcanist's alternate color is actually pretty similar (I actually use purple wall of elements on my arcanist instead of green for this reason). I might use it on my arcanist for a bit before swapping back to green but I think it'd look great on my Meridia-themed Vestige if I ever give her fatecarver for some reason (I'm leaning more into the Colored Rooms colors instead of white and gold as a way of showing the dark side of Meridia).Edited by Soarora on 19 December 2025 04:39PC/NA Dungeoneer (Tank/DPS/Heal), Trialist (DPS/Tank/Heal), and amateur Battlegrounder (DPS) with a passion for The Elder Scrolls lore- CP 2000+

✭They really need to fix the previews for new skill styles they add; we shouldn't have to ask someone to post a video every time.
Skill styles are cool, but I'm tired of purchasing them without knowing what I'll get.A: "We, as humans, should respect and take care of each other like in a Co-op, not a PvP 🌸"

Yeah, I had abandoned Fatecarver on my main since it performs better without, but I am now bringing it back in just because it's cool XD (being Oakensoul user with subclassing and scribing makes skill choice really hard)A: "We, as humans, should respect and take care of each other like in a Co-op, not a PvP 🌸"

✭Oof. The character I was considering this for does a lot of questing in first-person. I'm a bit worried about visibility with this style, even though it looks amazing.2 -
Gabriel_H✭✭✭✭✭
✭Is this visible if someone has "Show Ally Effects" turned off, because I know the blue one is visible regardless, and that purple is going to wreck havoc with my eyes?
@ZOS_Kevin There have been many posts about being able to turn off visual effects. If ZOS are not going to do that, then at least put skill styles behind the "Show Ally Effects". My eyes > ZOS selling crowns.PC EU

Yes, it's fully visible with the setting turned off. The green beam looks thinner and lighter, but purple ones are full blast with snow particle effects. It's obnoxious.0 -

I have show ally effects off and the purple aetherius beam looks effectively just as muted as the green and blue beams do.IGN @ emilypumpkin

Jacozilla✭✭✭✭✭Far as I'm concerned, this crown sale beam is bugged. Why? Because while the color and sound are subjective to personal taste, the lack of laser-pointer like beam is functionally lacking vs default beam.
Default beam - area effect animation around front of char + green beam clearly visible through the mobs you are hitting (e.g. laser pointer effect)
This purple beam for 2k crowns - area effect animation around front of char + no visible laser pointer purple beam (to the player). The beam is clearly visible to other players, but from pov of player firing this purple beam, it's only visible as a laser pointer when you point high angle down or up - straight ahead, all you see is the area effect animation.1 -
