Remove Frost Wall Shield Animation

Carbohydrate

It looks bad, it drops frames, and it's a major cause of crashes. I can't recall how many times I've counted down guaranteed crashes in raid before casting frost wall and seeing the all but useless animation proc on allies before half my group crashes.

Please do the players a favor and give players an option to hide it, if not remove it from the game.

Si, frames stagger often when frost wall is cast. At least make it an option of "other player effects" that you don't see.

I agree

PS4 NA - we did a fun run with a wintery theme... everyone had ice staves... it took us about 90 minutes to get through nSS... not because we are bad... but because we had about 40-50 freezes, disconnects or blue screens.

I'd say... its a massive contributing factor right now.

But the moment we talk about it, and open up a thread to offer this information - its closed and shutdown and redirected to a general blue screen thread about EU character crashes...

Everything is causing the crashes yesterday I was in the champion screen and crashed but yes it might be a factor for those that use it

Honestly it's a great skill, but at this point anything will disconnect you. We had a guy in Hel Ra playing his flute disconnect lol.

I hate this effect, it's super distracting and makes it hard to see anything else.
