this isn't a "every thing on the list is what I want", but more of "so i'm playing lots of pve and I notice a lot of stuff and stuff" post that i'll probably add to and clean up as I go along my adventures.
enjoy.
Wards - it's very dim and dark, can't tell when its there and when it isn't on either morph in many many situations.
There's a pale blue damage shield animation with scribing, could sorcs get it in their color palette in addition to the current ward animation please? It would make it a lot easier to see the damage shield portion
Crystal Fragments - it's barely visible except in first person which it looks amazing. like the new gold road shattered glass stuff. Could it be made more prominent? brighter and more pieces flying around?
And maybe make the skill have cleave damage please?
Request - cleave damage addition or something extra, its not a very fun spammy
animation request - maybe something like the wall of elements ice shards incorporated somehow
Mages Fury - it looks great but its so quick
request - make a morph that can be held-channeled like arcanist/templar beams. use the ulfililings contingency cast animation prior to the mages fury-arm raise lightning bolt, then hold the arm in the upright position while the sorc channels all that lightning over and over on multiple targets.
and since its a channel, the sorc can pulse a pbaoe like the current scribing class affix around itself every pulse.
Hurricane - having more wind effects like the wardens arctic wind, added to hurricane would help. currently it looks very, empty? around the avatar which turns into a ghost.
If its turning the sorc into an energy, could it be changed to add more static/energy lines around the blue parts? maybe changing in hues as the hurricane expands to full duration, shifting from intensity so from blue to magenta to white etc.
request - combine with storm memento animation (more whirling lightning & winds by the feet & lower body)
(gothnars helm/shoulders combo) also has a very bright fire ring that pulses, if that animation gets turned into the sorc-colors and added to hurricane it would help too.
Critical Surge - Looks 99% identical to Overload (ult)
request - add crystal-fragments-stam morph animation to Critical Surge (both morphs) so the sorcs weapon surges too, with a mix of both animations.
- add the current scribing pet buff to this
Overload - request : could it have more static around the body instead of just the arms? maybe even add some of the crystal fragment shards around the body for an atronauch-like appearance.
Haunting Curse - i don't even know if i cast it or not sometimes
Request - unfathomable darkness set has a crows that attack, using that same animation style, but replace the birds with ghostly daedra or some dark magic sigils etc floating around
Crystal Cage - a burst of light when it goes off would be great, doesn't need to go off if it gets broken. I can't realy tell if I stunned anything with it unless I see the word stun pop up. I can barely see the crystals sometimes unless I zoom in.
request - the sorc class armor from infinite archive has those bright spikes that come down to channel the lightning energy, maybe something like that bright, not too bright not too dark, but noticeable.
Vibrant Shroud (both morphs) etc - its so dark
the sorc has such pretty animations but they are so dimmed out and toned down on so many skills.
request - more of whatever they are, they're pretty but barely noticeable
ok bye
