Grim Focus, Spring Green feels incomplete

aedra · July 9

I was under the impression it would also change the default red glow when you have any stacks to green as well, it kind of feels like it should be a pretty obvious feature being a recolor for a skill and all, but it only actually changes firing animation color sadly. Feels pretty disappointing especially as its a premium tome item.

I'm really not surprised any more. There's other styles that do something similar to this as well.

Every skill style released for grim focus so far did not change the color of the glow.
It's a letdown in my book, surely won't spend any kind of currency to unlock them.

Oh wow, that is a letdown! Thanks for posting about this, I was thinking about getting the premium tome just so I could change the red glow on Grim Focus... I would have been SO UPSET if I had wasted money on that!

They really should give us a skill style for Grim Focus that changes the red glow... it clashes with my other abilities and makes me hesitant to use light or heavy attacks at all. I wish they'd make the glow go away outside of combat, that would also make it less annoying.

Skill styles are a great idea, but their implementation is half baked.

A skill style should never be "just a recolor", a color change itself does not always translate as well as the original color. Some of them may need different or additional effects.

Skill styles should also change the icons on the hot bar to the icon of the skill change. I don't want to see my arcanist have all green icons when he is shooting blue spells. The icons are already color changed when you change the skill style, that icon just needs to be reflected on the hot bar.

Most of the work is already done, not sure why this cant be implemented.
