Inner Light - Magelight orb is WAY too bright (it hurts my eyes)

    I was *really* disappointed to keep the orb when I morphed the spell since I never see it on other players with Inner Light, and it can make me a little noxious if I pay attention to it, but the hiss is what drives me batty. I ended up turning down the FX sounds in the options and still can't really find a low hiss/able to hear everything else balance.

    Please, please allow us to turn off the orb or vastly dim it and make it stationary. I exclusively PVE and the crit bonus is potent on my sorcerer I feel compelled to use it but it is devastating on the eyes.

    I am shelving the character until something is changed because I don't want to self-gimp in-game or real-life-nauseate/blind.

    For PVP, make it visible to other players or whatever but please, please help we many blinded players (I play on a large screen with camera close to the character but I can't imagine it's great regardless).

    It would be my priority add-on (and thus wouldn't care if the Devs made it part of the official game) but I gather that it is not something that other modders can change (at least without risking banning or whatever).

    Take this, my only post so far on the forums (I think; maybe one before), as a serious request for change. Everyone wins if it is on a toggle (even if only for inner light which at least makes sense) and still visible for PvPers.

    Thanks for your time, presumed devs reading this. I look forward to picking my sorcerer back up after it is improved.

    Posting my support for this, the magelight ball gives me a serious headache and I cant play my caster for extended periods without developing a migraine.

    Inner light should have the glowing eyes and hands/arms, but not the magelight ball - leave it for radiant magelight.

    Me too. Headache and motion sickness. The rotation and bright light is just too much for my brain to handle.

    I totally agree. Mage's light is way to BIG and BRIGHT. It's really annoying playing with it on. Just make this orb way too smaller or remove it completely leaving the glow.

    And at the same time you took off spell crit percentage. That's really sad. I'm playing 1st person most of the time so I can cope with it, but I imaging how sick of this orb get those who prefer 3rd person view.

    Zen should remove the orb, as it would be much better. The eyes and hands glowing are fine.

    Agreed. I want that orb gone -- or at least toggle-able. I don't care if other players see my orb floating around, me seeing it just makes me very nauseous.

    Make it only visible to other players, please. I understand that it is important for nightblades in PvP.

    There is no great need for the buff to be visible from an interface point of view, since it doesn't expire.

    Couldn`t agree more. The glow is very cool, but give us an option to turn off the orb visually, but not for other players. Any ability, particularly a key one, should`t have a visual effect that is dizzying and distracting. Please fix, thanks! Literally getting sick of my Sorc.

    I agree, take off the orbs. They are very distracting and make using the ability (which is extremely helpful) very annoying. I understand that it allows others to see who is using magelight but it really isn't worth the obnoxious animation for the user. The eyes and arms are super cool but the orbs just nerf that coolness by about 100%, maybe make an ability to toggle the orbs for group purposes? Toggling would only be cosmetic but still it would be nice to have that option.

    This needs to happen. The Inner Light spell is way too powerful to not use as a caster (+20% crit is a must), but the orb is making me nauseous. And the hissing is bloody annoying!

    I'd also wish the coloring would match the class, because the blue-white orb kinda stands out on my red-black Nightblade caster. Having a red-black orb and fire would be so much cooler. Just saying, we get to modify the color on our gear, but this spell will still completely break the palette.

    Still there, still annoying and nauseating as hell after update 4. IT IS CALLED INNER LIGHT. Really guys, why is this feedback so hard for you to act on?

    There was even a reference to updating the FX for inner light in the patch notes...so I was very hopeful...well that lasted for about 30 seconds until the game loaded...lol.

    Supporting this as well.. please have the super bright orb go with RADIANT magelight (as the name would imply) and just leave us with the glowy hands and eyes.... since the skill is called INNER light..

    Dunno why the animation is still awful - I haven't seen /any/ complaints about an animation...except for this ability. I recently got the ability today and, same as my VR4 character, could only stand it for about 30min before I couldn't stand it and logged off.

    love the spell, hate the orb. it hurts my eyes- too bright. I do like the glowy blue effect though and since its named "inner light" that would more than suffice. it is not named insanely bright glowy orb of circling madness.

    Posting my support for this. It's *Inner* Light. Why is there still an orb which is, quite frankly, extremely annoying?
