Why only Templar has to suffer animation?

Why does only the Templar class has to change, to some kind of disgusting and disconnecting animation?
It is not fair at all if you are gonna change the main spammable animation of a class, and all the other classe will still keep their identity.

They should make them all ugly or just leave it how it looks.
I'm so embarressed and cringed at this animation.

Flurry got changed too, and it's absolutely hideous.

Now this is some creative problem solving right here. Do make sure they're all equally ugly, ZOS.

What I can agree on though is that the animation is not at the same level of other recent animations. I actually really love what the animation team comes up with, (I mean look at the swimming and jumping creatures at the high isle coast) but this is not it, same goes for flurry btw.

There's a lot of talent at ZOS but this animation seems a bit forced (for lack of a better term) to fit within the casting time.

Jabs animation was bad before the change.

While the size of a pole can be important in certain elements (pole vaulters would struggle with shorter poles) I think this staff could do with being 60% of the length and 40% of the thickness please so it's more aesthetically pleasing

I like the animation change. At first I found it distracting but didn't take long for me to get used to it. In trials when the group stacks the new animation is very easy to see allowing rotation to go smoother.

Not only, DK was before you They get poop fist and a lot of them do not look happy too.

But if say with no jokes - why do we get such thingth ? Just really - it do not look better. Do not work better. We do not like such changes.

Why do they do it ?

I don't hate the new animation and weaving feels more fluent now. Damage is way to low tho!

The new jabs animation has forced me to shelve my templar and seriously evaluate how much of my valuable time I spend ingame. I used to play nightly, but now, I have cut my play time to just a few nights a week. U35 has left me feeling very disenchanted with ESO, a game I have enjoyed since beta.

Altering the templar jabs to feel so awful to use and even worse to look at feels *punishing* to a long time templar fan.

Templar isn't the only class that can use the Dual Wield skill 'Flurry,' so, No, Templar isn't the *only* one to "suffer" new animations.

I like both the new animations now. You just need to let yourself get used to changes that look strange at first.

Honestly, I think one of the graphics guys is a Bee Gees fan... if you put on the song "Staying Alive".... it fits the rhythm.
I refer to the new animations as disco raving the enemy...... doesn't make it prettier, but at least I can laugh at it.

I deleted my main character that was a templar and made a stamblade orc looking the same with the same name. Lost many things but that's how much I hate it.
