Updating Class Attack Animations

One of the things I've always hated in this game is the various combat animations, specifically class attacks that hide your weapons. Nothing like seeing your beautiful weapon disappear right before your eyes when you use Surprise Attack as a Nightblade that briefly replaces it with a visually dull animation. Each class should have their own unique animation for each ability.

All that I'm looking for personally is just to update these animations, like the previously mentioned Nightblade ability have your weapon(s) be displayed at all times and have it glow red perhaps leaving a trail from your weapon, other than that the animation isn't too bad itself in terms of movement. However, abilities like Crystal weapon, Lave Whip, Overload, etc desperately need updated visually.

    I mean you could shut down ESO since they clearly aren't willing to commit to any standard of quality. but some people prefer that they start caring and start fixing and upping quality.
    Playing your character the way your character should play is all that matters. Play as well as you can but never betray the character. Doing so would make playing an mmoRPG pointless.

    You can see it with the class releases, the older classes have 90% working animations, then you get warden where the animal companion skills are fine but everything else removes your weapon on cast. Necromancer, i would have to check to be sure but i think all necromancer skills remove your weapon on every cast of every necro skill...

    I would love it if they would fix/rework it because its ugly as hell, especially the necro

    And here we are wanting ZOS to make the vampire's claw swipe to hide the weapons since it copies Dragonknight's flame claw animation, which as you can guess does not.
