Ugly bow white indicator

Hello!
So... We all agree that the FUGLY block indicator needs to go. I actually thought it to be a bug and even issued a support ticket... (Come on.. it's even misaligned in first person view)
However... No one is talking about the power attack indicator in the bows! I stopped playing soon after the thieves guild DLC came out because of my college and job, but I can't remember it being there before.
When i'm holding the attack to make a power attack my bows start flashing white, overwriting the enchantment texture... And it's not only ugly but gets in the way of my immersion...
NO OTHER WEAPON haves that...
Look at the screenshots! And I guess there is no option to turn it off... Just like the fugly block animation...
I checked videos of the game and at least it was not there in december last year.

✭This might actually make me use Bow more. It has annoyed the hell out of me for months that there isn't a clear way to tell when you're ready to make a Heavy Attack. My Destruction Staffs automatically release the heavy attack when they're charged up, but Bows do not, so I never know if I'm doing light, medium or heavy attacks with the Bow.
However, as with many things in this game - why on earth isn't the visual effect toggleable? I like it, but I can see why you don't, and you should have the ability to turn it off!Guildmaster of the UESP Guild on the North American PC/Mac Server 2200+ CP & also found on the European PC/Mac Server 1700+ CP

Stoltverd✭✭✭I agree it was hard to know if one was making a power attack... In PvP where every second is crucial.
But i like to play to RP, see the landscapes, live in tamriel. And that takes me out of the experience. i would use it in PvP tho...
There is no need for it in PvE however. I just hold it until it's drawn completely and that's it!
I see that the focus of this update was PvP but that doesn't mean every player focuses on PvP. TESO is a special MMORPG, not only in mechanics, but for the franchise it's part of. There are many players, all of us playing differently.
Giving us the option to toggle it, or only fire on PvP zones would be the perfect solution.1
