Should the New Blocking Icon be on a Toggle?

✭✭I guess not everyone will be agreeing (and that's fine).
But when I first saw the new block thingy, I was like "that's pretty cool".

I can see why some might enjoy it, but it gets in the way of things like screenshots. Unnecessary in practice, and undesirable in a variety of situations. A toggle lets those who want it enjoy it and lets everyone else do as they will.Men'Do PC NA AD Khajiit

True
I can only see it being useful in PvP.and also there only on others, it on yourself.

ContraTempo✭✭✭✭Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!And we told them this on PTS. Toggle.
Seriously, they should not implement anything like this without a toggle.ContraTempo

✭Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!If my tank is using a sword and shield, I'm just not sure why she needs it? It's already obvious when she's holding up her shield. So for that case, no, not needed."Billions upon Billions of Stars"1 -
Xylphan✭✭✭✭I'm fine either way really. I still like the idea of being able to customize it though. Like if you have cold resist on your shield, have an ice effect, etc. Maybe have them based on alliance, class, etc. Maybe sell custom block icons in the crown store for a small amount of crowns, so that people have something they can get with that lingering 100 crowns.

If it was only for shields...
Also HELL NO.

Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!Yes, you should be able to toggle it, the blocking indicator is big and looks really bad, it looks out of place.

phermitgb✭✭✭✭✭Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!voted yes just because, even though I see it's utility, I personally find it mildly distracting, and I would prefer it to be gone for most of my PVE gameplay experience."There is no correct resolution; It's a test of character."

One of the selling points of the game in it's early days was the minimalistic, immersive, unobstructive, undistracting ui.
It's focus on questing, IT'S FOCUS ON ELDER SCROLLS STYLE AND GAMEPLAY made me buy it...
But day by day... It's less and less of a TES game3 -

There will not be any firing...
Nor should it.
We all make mistakes... Even if we are told we are making one before hand... Specially if you are like me xD
What makes me angry is the silence ZOS is having with the issue.

Stoltverd✭✭✭Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!Since there has been no answer from any dev. Despite the massive amount of complaints in the PTS forums BEFORE both the indicators went live, and AFTER they went live despite the complaints...

Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!Zos irritate the *** out of me with this crap. Many of us want an IMMERSIVE experience why they thought to add this without a toggle just completely blows my mind. ALSO, the basic attack animation has been bugged for ages now and I been fighting tooth and nail to get that fixed. Even got them to say they were working on it on eso live, months ago. For those on console, both consoles have this issue but it's not on pc, hold down your right trigger for a few full basic attacks, after the first one your toon will glitch out at the peak of the swing. Yet another immersion breaker preventing the game from true glory1

ContraTempo✭✭✭✭Yes, more customization is never a bad thing. Keep it turned on if you like it!To a noob or someone just learning to block and bash it is great! Very helpful. But after this learning phase it's just in the way. A toggle is the perfect solution.ContraTempo

But... Can't said noob see he is blocking by the blocking animation? or the stance? or the way he moves when blocking? Or because he is pressing the button?2 -
