Recolors of the base "Recalling" Customized Actions no longer work in Werewolf form

Erickson9610 · August 7

This was addressed in the patch notes:

However, three Customized Actions (Bitter Coast Recall, Recall of the Crusader, and the one I personally use, Recall of the Galen Wilds) recolor the default blue animation to red, yellow, or green, respectively, and these worked perfectly fine in Werewolf form.

As a result of this change, you will always recall with the blue color, even if you've selected one of the other colors.

I recognize that it's more involved to explicitly allow Customized Actions which function properly in Werewolf form when most of them don't, but it bothers me every time I port somewhere in Werewolf form and see blue when I see a different color when not in Werewolf form.

I didn’t mind the prop placement in werewolf form. I’d prefer to stick with the custom recalls.

My werebear uses the Frostfall recall since it’s appropriate (he’s a Warden who epitomizes the “there’s a fine line between the dumbest humans and the smartest bears” phrase). I didn’t mind the scroll just popping into his hand, because he did still get the frost effect on him.

This is definitely one of those “this isn’t really a problem” things. Looks weird, sure, but it’s niche and not something that bothers the people affected.

Please glob tell me they haven’t nerfed my recall animations too. I don’t care about the ‘look’ on some. Just place a ‘this animation does not play fully in werewolf form’ disclaimer similar to the overload store disclaimer it (overload recolor) had originally.

I’m literally using a crown crate recall just for this purpose.

Can we get any support on this issue? This rings like ‘yeah we didn’t want to spend the effort fixing this or adding a disclaimer so we just disabled it for your character’. Who would be pleased with that if it affected them?

Solution, give the Werewolf a unique recall animation.

Thanks for bringing this up!

While I don't like new werewolf models, I enjoy the gameplay with new fierce sounds and some of new abilities. And seeing how recall and gathering animations look on werewolf - it's just so cool and hilarious

Please, don't take away custom actions from werewolves!

I don't have PTS installed at the moment, so I can't check if gathering animations are still working or if they are disabled also. But just in case, I have screenshots and videos recorded from werewolf adventures on live server, just to show how great it feels to have customized actions apply to werewolf form

Little hunting adventure with Meteor mining and Ice rune gathering also:

I don't see any issues from custom actions on werewolves (the fact that they don't have special body animation for every action is understandable to me) - they even use correct arm placement of special effects when applicable ^^

ZOS, I purchased the crate bundle for the new crates for the recall alone primarily because it works for both my human form and werewolf. Is there any way you can simply discontinue future recalls from working with werewolf (so no extra work or expectations) and just allow us to keep the ones already available?
