Molten Weapons visual effect....ouch!

ESO is a beautiful and very detailed game, but some things are just so ugly it breaks the immersion. Every time I cast Molten Weapons, me and my group have to switch to 3rd person view, just to save our eyes from this awful effect....I mean...come on! The fire...the texture... :'(
As a support/tank, Molten Weapons is a skill that I use all the time.

Zenimax, is there any chance MW visual effect will get refreshed?

Guys, just spare the posts about how there are more important things to fix. Visual artists don't fix balancing and performance issues.

    I dunno visual things are pretty high up in my list of things for ESO because is what called my attention in the first place to this game, but yeah before improving visual effects they HAVE to improve the performance and optimization of the game to avoid FPS drops to sad places.
    Some of my favorite screenshots
    My opinions and posts are mostly on a PvE setting.

    You play it first person? Not even talking about the lack of situational awareness, how can you see anything with all the visual effects, it is blinding.

    Depends. When questing I play in FP, when in dungeon, pvp or anything serious I go TP. I like the immersion of first person. Always loved TES for that.

    Firstly I think it looks amazing. Does EXACTLY what it says on the tin, I mean how could you actually complain about it? MOLTEN weapons, and it turns the weapons molten. Perfect visuals.

    Secondly, I love first person don't get me wrong. But who the hell plays dungeons and group content in first person? Especially with a shield haha, you can't see 50% of your screen, let alone your feet. Healing through all those red circles must be a pain on your healer

    Eso is not only dungeons. As I said, i switch to TP when in Dungeon Or doing anything serious. I love FP when questing or just wandering about. Yep the visual effect does what name says, but it could look miles better.
