Feature concept: Unlock-able ability animation "skins"

Title captures it pretty well.

New animations for abilities that you unlock through game play (*not* the Crown Store).

To flesh it out a little more, you can still cast an ability and have the same combat effect, yet change how it looks to yourself and others.

Why?

For fun and variety.

No one would be forced to unlock them, or if unlocked, to use them. Just something to mix things up at the 5+ year mark.

And it wouldn't have to be every skill all at once. Maybe a few for each class and some weapon skill lines to start. Then add more over time.

Anyway, that's it.

Have a great day! :smile:

    Can I just delete animation folder to not see them at all?

    PVE only, sure.

    For PVP, that would make the already steep learning curve for new players even steeper. Assuming the animations render at all, of course.

    There are other features turned off in PvP, so that shouldn't be an issue

    On my Night blade it really sucks having Rally Siphoning Attack and Race against Time all having the same animation on the same bar.
