Permaglow: When will it go permanently?

They fixed the permaglow. Almost. But not really. When in a fight with a nightblade build with that specific permaglow skill in it you end up with permaglow again as long as the buff is active.

It completely ruins the appearance of my toons. I have a bow/bow build with the invisible bow on the backbar. Now I don't see the bow but its permaflow with weapon stored.

What utter ugliness.

Anyhow it should go and with all the glowing and shining happening in a combat this visual clue is lost anyhow. I for instance rather look out for the sound clue and the skill bar itself. In a fight I ALWAYS miss the optical cue for that skill. So why keep it if it renders the appearance of a toon so terrible.

    I don't even use that skill anymore because of the glow effect, it should only glow when it is ready to fire and only when you're in combat.

    Exactly. It should, if at all, only glow when in combat. A lot of addons know when combat starts and ends. Should be easy to copy that.

    Took them a lot of time for that "fix", not holding my breath for an actual one.

    The only real hope is a skill style, took them 2 years to adjust it even with a ton of people complaining here, and I'm pretty sure the only reason they even "fixed" it was because subclassing would make it an issue for even more people.

    I personally don't mind it anymore, you can assign a key to reset its stacks anytime you want with add-ons, I'm way more concerned with the animation changes they pushed through.
    @MorvanClaude on PC/NA, don't try to trap me with lore subjects, it will work

    I stopped buying Arms Packs once all my visual effects got limited to this one annoying effect:

    Anyway, it seems like ZOS will never give us the beautiful ESO we once had. We have too many effects now, too many beams, too many bugs, too much of everything we hate and never asked for, and not enough TES now.

    And that’s why things are the way they are, and ZOS won’t change them.

    Sorry, ZOS, but permaglow is still an issue. It H.A.S. T.O. G.O.
