Can we have a toggle option to have mage light visual effects back to the way they used to be?

Right now the blue eyes and flames on arms effects only appear for a few seconds unless you constantly re cast instead of all the time like before this patch.

Can we have the blue visual effects on perma again when skill is slotted and then give an option in settings to turn it off for people who do not want it like before?

It completely changes the look of characters people have had for a long time.

    It's the same visual effects but it only shows on your character when you activate the skill and only for a few seconds then the visual effects disappear, it no longer shows the visual effects 24/7....

    It also now costs a lot of magicka to use...

    So are we to assume these visual effects are gone forever unless we activate the skill over and over?

    The effects you speak of are directly related to the stealth detect aspect of the skill. As such your request will not come into play, Mostly because of this changes to being detected by this skill while in stealth it cannot be on full time.

    While I understand that we to become accustomed to retain visuals, we will get used to this change and it will become less of an issue for us.

    I never really like the glowing blue eyes, the glowing hands was OK. However I only used the visual effect to make sure I had the skill activated. Now, since I have come to trust that just having the skill slotted gives the buff, now I don't need to see the glow anymore.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Which is why they should add a toggle option in settings so people who want it how it was since the start of the game can keep it and those who don't can turn it off...

    Purely visuals.

    i'm happy with the changes, the glowing eyes and blue arms were ok, but i really hate the flying light around you character especially if you play in first person or in third with the camera over your shoulder.

    It isn't purely visuals. It lets you know if you will detect stealthed characters or not. It reflects how the skill now works.

    We are talking about purely the visual effects that were permanent since beta/launch on our characters not about what the skill does...we don't care what the skill does or doesn't do we just want our visual effects we had since launch back...

    Yeah I hate that they took that feature away from mage light unless we activate it. That take the cool things we like when activated and not take away the hedious bound armor that no one likes the look of when activated. I wouldnt care so much if costumes would cover it. Yes, I know they do cover it. But for some reason after initiating combat by costume disappears and my bound armor is revealed. Thought maybe it was because of the certain costume. But a bunch of diff costumes so I can cover it but no luck.

    ...sowwy I couldn't resist the urge to write that, you sounded so cute :3

    I really liked the visual effects of magelight, as long as I wasn't playing in first-person-view, because it looked too tacky. I had to use that to farm in specific areas, because the camera angles got too weird.... however normally in third person it really looked awesome. I really disliked the stalking light though, at least they made it much smaller than what it used to be like in the early days of ESO x_x it was like a big disco ball.

    I miss the cool looking glowing eyes and hands Q.Q

    Agree. I'm glad it's not a toggle anymore, but I miss glowing when Inner Light was active. It's such a cool look.
