So since we're getting ability skins, how about a rainbow beam for fatecarver

BloodyStigmata · February 18

Also maybe some butterfly projectiles for runeblades.

Preferably earnable in game, but you know, if I mu$t get it some other way, cool.

You know you want to ZOS.

Take a look, it's in a book.

by the 8 divines no... I want it to fit into ESO lore... if you want something like that play like Final Fantasy 14 or something.

KlauthWarthog · February 18

I am expecting something of the sort to pop up in the crown crates sometime in the future.

Vaqual · February 18

I am also not really the biggest fan of flashy stuff, but since fate carver is anyway beyond what I consider aesthetic, why not. The butterfly stuff could actually work as some kind of mad sheo version. I think plain recolors is what we might get first.
I really hope they also provide animations that tone down the vanilla version.

it would totally fit in the lore.
Meridian Cultist who's an Arcanist could probably make their beams rainbow coloured

I was just joking but as a lore nerd myself, now I'm intrigued.

Present your best, most well-thought-out argument as to why it would be entirely, as a matter of objective fact, impossible for a magic spell to be rainbow colored. And remember now, you made the claim it wouldn't be lore friendly so the burden of proof is on you.

1 word "Seizure". the ability is already very flashy it will be like that Porygon episode in pokemon all over again.

#JusticeforPorygon That was entirely Pikachu's fault. I'd love to see a rainbow Fatecarver, it sounds like fun!

Honestly this. The game is becoming more and more difficult for me to play with all the constant flashbang weapon skins, mounts, extreme recalls customisations, and the Arcanist beams. I even consider my issues somewhat mild. I don't get seizures or migraines, but all of these things that has increased a lot the latest years is giving me a lot of eyepain and occasional headaches, making it difficult to do a lot of content.

I do not want things that will make it even worse.

Whatever you fancy, just let me have an invisible Grim Focus.

In like a slightly less dramatic Prior Thierric–style effect, that would be great lol. Just a nice prismatic beam. It guess it would be a Meridia skin

You lost me at 'extreme recalls customisations'... because... what? They are all single-color, so the only difference is the shade... blue, red, green, gold and now the ice one. None of them are 'flashy' and honestly are rarely even seen. Even the new action animations are pretty mild. The mounts, yes, are getting way out of control for their flashiness. But then again, in my personal experience, unless I'm doing dolmen runs, I rarely see other mount animations. If I personally choose a flashy mount, then that's on me having to see that animation every time I mount... but otherwise, yeah, I rarely see other player's mounts. Arcanist, honestly, I got to the point when playing it that I rarely even noticed the animations anymore.

Legionnaire's Recall is white and bright and huge.
and it does flash.

The day I see those things in game will be the day I uninstall the game.

Honestly, I've never seen that recall, ever, but again, it's a person's choice to equip it or not. And unless someone is standing around a wayshrine just watching people, I don't see it as a problem. Unlike Arcanist beam or other combat visuals that can be seen on a regular basis.

Yeah this would be nice too. Maybe an option to turn off persistent effects in the settings or something, idk.

This is exactly the recall I had in mind, and it seems they are going to add more of these "unique" recalls. Having this suddenly flash up right infront of my character is not pleasant to my eyes.

Sakiri · March 7

would that make a khajiit arcanist NyanCat?

OldStygian · March 7

Client side settings to be able to set your visual flavour from grim dark through to my little pony would be nice.

iPlayOnlyESO · March 7

I hope they will enable us to disable animation of abilities. Hide helmet, hide shoulders, hide animation...
So that we can fully enjoy arms packs with visual effects.

ProudMary · March 7

Oh please no! The bright green is bad enough.

I personally like the permanent Grim Focus glow, but i agree. Having the option to turn it off would be great especially since it's still visible on weapons that are supposed to be invisible while sheathed.

Now that we're at it, can we get the same treatment for the Hurricane transparency? i'm a lil tired of being a ghost while playing a Stamina Sorcerer

I only hope there won't be an hide legs and chest feature.
I can already sense an army of obese naked Orcs running towards me
