I’ve talked to a lot of people about the updated kudzu effects. Most of them have agreed that the aura is too subtle for a two-handed legendary. My suggestion is that instead of a flower aura on the hands, the aura should surround the user instead like a veil of flowers. I will be going through examples of why I think it is underwhelming compared to other two-handed weapons.

Example 1 Bifrost: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/f/ff/The_Bifrost_Aura.jpg

Example 2 Frenzy: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/9/9b/Frenzy_aura.jpg

Example 3 Juggernaut: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/d/d9/Juggernaut_armor_effect.jpg

Example 4 The Predator: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/f/f0/The_Predator_drawn.jpg

Example 5 Sunrise: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/9/98/Sunrise_wielded.jpg

Example 6 Twilight: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/f/f5/Twilight_wielded.jpg

Example 7 Eternity: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/7/75/Eternity_day_wielded.jpg

Example 8 Chuka and Champawat: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/8/8d/Chuka_and_Champawat_aura.jpg

So what do we Long bow wielders get for a two-handed aura? Some flowers that are barely noticeable. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/6/60/Kudzu_aura.jpg

I don’t know if this is just me but sometimes it doesn’t feel like I’m wielding a powerful bow of the wild, but just a skin on a ascended weapon. Even the underwater weapons have more distinct aura, take https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/c/c5/Kraitkin.jpg for example. This is why I feel that Kudzu deserves to have a distinct aura of flowers or something of the like. Not just some Dinky flowers around the hands.

Edit: With the gem store glove skin “Chaos gloves” https://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/f/f6/Chaos_Gloves.jpg Any color other then black you cannot even see the effect on the hands. Thank you for your time to read this. I hope I’m not the only one that feels this way

I love my Kudzu but it would be nice if the aura was more noticeable.

What really drew my notice to this was the difference between the bowstrings (aura) on Dreamer and the aura on Kudzu! Dreamer is way better by far, i really feel they did kudzu a disservice.
