Tooltip Update - Summon Shade

The tooltips for Summon Shade and its morphs say, "Summon a shade version(s) of yourself to attack an enemy and fight at your side for X seconds."

Please update the tooltips to remove the "version(s) of yourself" wording, as the shades do not look like our characters - especially Argonians and Khajiits, which have tails.

It's a simple language fix that more accurately describes the skill. Thanks. <3

    I always wondered if it really is a Shade of my character, as they all seem to attack the same way no matter what weapons my character has equipped. They also don't stand by my side if they are attacking the enemy, but instead move to engage them.

    I think it should be just Summon Shade to fight for you for X Seconds or Summon Shades to fight for you for X Seconds

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    This would be a nice change and one that accurately describes the skill.

    Fix tooltip, or even better...

    Actually match the shades to the current player's look :p

    Agree.. Another thing I noticed is the lack of being able to customise the shades' costumes and eyelashes

    Not sure if you're seriously mocking, or just trying to get laughs... This thread asks for a simple language correction to the tooltip. Your costume and eyelash comparisons are hyperbole and don't make sense.

    This is what happens when you mix flavor text with the mechanical description of an ability. Amateurish and sloppy.

    I love shade too and Argonian is my favorite race to use. Which is why I'd love to see a simple tooltip update that makes the language of the skill to make the shades their own entity.
