    it is disgusting, even repulsive. beautiful room warming flames turned into cracked earth with few cinders. I wish to see dungeons burn, just like they used to.

    yeah, my fire mage definitely feels like it lost some zest. Fire should look like fire. If people were having a hard time telling if it was "friendly" fire or enemy fire, they should have just avoided it either way.

    Hopefully someone from Zenimax will see this thread and see that many players are not happy about this change to fire.

    Zenimax we are paying customers, give us our fire back and change the color of NPC fire to blue. Blue flames are in roadside braziers, wayshrines, on some NPC staffs...blue fire is common so give it to the NPC fire casters and give the paying customers real fire again.

    I like the new "glow" animation.
    ...I suppose I'm the only one who's actually impressed by the new graphics. The ground cracks and then explodes, yes please.

    Too bad the skill itself is still useless.

    How is the skill useless? I use it as one of my main attacks with great success. I've seen builds on Youtube that rely on Impulse or Force Shock, those feel pretty weak to me. But when I lay down a carpet of fire...now a carpet of crack, I can watch the NPCs health drop that's in it. I only have three attacks at a time slotted so generally my slots look like this:

    Unstable Clannfear
    Destructive Clench
    Elemental Blockade
    Velocious Curse
    Bound Armaments

    I guess my Clannfear technically is a fourth attack but I consider him more a distraction to keep NPCs occupied more than anything else.

    alternating shattering prison and elemental blockade worked. but i find it nowhere near as effective as crit surge and pulsar.

    but yeah the new elemental blockade animation is just meh

    It was changed for one reason:
    So you can differentiate more easily between friend and foe fire.


    If you can be anything, be kind.

    I agree! AND don't forget the other powers that use flames as well... I pretty much hate using Scorched Earth now. It also is very hard to see if the enemy is in it, and looks terrible!

    And that could not have been done via slight colour change? 2 primary colours and 1 secondary to work with and they just remove the animation... Blue flame... it's magic it could be fine as any colour...
