Mage light. Retina burning orb of doom - suggestion for new look

I must say that this ability is getting on my nerves, not just visually but also that god awful distracting sound.

I don't know if it's just me but I would like the sound removed and the orb replaced with a stronger blue glow on our character and also blue / white ish glowing eyes, yes please. ;)

    Significantly toning down the retina-burn from the overly bright Inner Light has been suggested and reported as feedback for almost a year now. It's a trivial change for an artist to change the brightness from its current 500 billion to a mere 2, but for no apparent reason they just won't do it.

    I suspect the designer failed to consider that flashy, distracting visuals like this become something entirely different after several hundred hours.

    i like the blue glow on the character, but hat orb... and that sound... just gnaws at me.

    I would rather not remove the sound, you can actually hear an enemies magelight even when they're hidden.

    I've tried using it today... but it just wasn't possible:
    - ANNOYING SOUND
    - VERY DISTRACTING ANIMATION
    - CUTS FPS RAPIDLY

    thanks to all that light&shadows it cuts my already low (22) fps even lower (all the way to 16), while making me half blind (since I don't play at maximum zoomout) and annoying me with constant horrible sound (almost as bad as Annulment/Harness Magicka) while also annoying me with turning off every damn time I enter/leave a location..


    Like if burning eyes weren't enough... I mean, glowing arms are great, but wholefaceglow is ridiculously bad and the light orb is just too much to bear. I'm saying that since betas in multiple topics, but ZOS keeps ignoring the issue with this skill. Hopefully for something that matter more at least.

    I like it as is, only recently started playing with it, and always wondered what was making people glow.

    Losing the orb entirely would be a dream come true. They can leave the rest of it as is otherwise.

    Would be very nice to tone down the brightness a little bit.

    Definitely agree with OP that magelight needs to be toned down slightly :) so that I don't have to go through this...
