EM Ascender: Where's the animation?
out of curiosity, how did you expect the animations to look when moving in different directions?

The magic carpet and the broomstick have the char sitting without moving and the aviation box doesn’t change animations. Not sure why you were expecting the char to do anything with this one.
Be careful what you ask for

Twist/lean at least a little bit towards the direction of movement and possibly not have the arms in that stiff pose.
I have to agree, after the first use followed immediate regret. I was hoping for at least something a similar to the sitting animation of the water overload or the magic carpet, but this feels very out of place. It works a little better on Charr (minus staring at the ground), but for my Asura it is terrible.
There are videos you where you can check out the animation before you buy it.
It’s not that bad.
Now,just make these things give us a perma swiftness buff already!

It should be more like a levitation animation, and less identical to the gliding one.

Actually after watching for a few seconds it’s not that stiff. While the turning is odd looking, the arms and body both sway a bit as you move along and the cloth and leather parts of armor moves also as if reacting to a breeze.

Ya I was thinking the same thing. Just a casual stance with the feet levitation deal. Instead it is “look I am flying weeee”.
I’m thinking now they are reeeeeeeeeeeealy short on animation staff.

Animation is pretty bad. Its jusy a very unbalanced looking character with no correlating movements. I was planning on buying one, but I’m glad I looked at the video first. Im surprised they even shipped it with such a terrible animation. At the least, in my opnion, atleast copy the elementalists overload animation and play with it a little. Atleast the overload animation looks balanced and has correlating movements.

As sad as it is, both my purchase and a video came before Dulfy’s.
