I know it’s been a really long time since the legendary visual update but I wanted to see what others thought and possibly see some Dev feedback. Since legendary weapons are only cosmetic appearance is everything. For example, I made Eternity for the blade animations on mesmer, all of the swooping animations with the blur I thought looked very nice; furthermore I liked that you still threw the purple greatsword on mirror blade. I personally thing throwing the crossed or X blades on Eternity mirror blade looks awful and I wonder if it’s possible to implement a weapons effect toggle. And if so would it be difficult to implement. It’s a minor thing and that’s pretty much why I haven’t posted until now but it is something I’d like to see, I really enjoyed the old Eternity.

Why in the world would they implement a weapons effect toggle?

cuz not everyone likes all legendaries some people like the special effects but not the weapon for example i’d love having predator effects on phoenix rifle or on my engi’s kits future example: grenade satchel has a bunch of fiery glowing orbs or if engi has Quip bombs and grenades look colorful and explode confetti .

@Ephemiel, learn to read, it’s a great tool. I literally said For example and stated what I dislike about the “new” Eternity animations on mirror blade. It’s impossible to be any more specific. Therefore I wanted to see if anyone else felt the same way.

You said why YOU wanted it, but why should THEY do it?

“Since legendary weapons are only cosmetic appearance is everything”. YOU said this, remember? Why would anyone make a legendary if they don’t like something about it? They won’t add the option to toggle it on and off simply cause someone doesn’t like it AFTER they made it.

I understand what you want but I think there is more work involved in doing such option than what it might look. Plus I think that the demand for such freature is minimal.
