I wanted to post some very positive feedback on the new AoE visuals during the Lornar’s Pass fight. There is in variety in that fight – some large, some small, some that overlap, and some that are cone shaped. First, they are very very nice on the eyes as far as seeing where area of effect skills are happening (and much easier to see than the current rings).
Second, they really created some fun reactive play due to the nature of being able to see them, and understanding how to move around. Third, they were just visually appealing
(even the dark shading when two circles would overlap and form a venn diagram).

Nice work.

Edit: To drive the point home that I didn’t make earlier, I would love to see this updated around the game, even with player created AoE.

Yea, the new AoE indicators are really nice. It helps a lot during these big boss fights where I normally wouldn’t be able to see anything.

Yeah I liked those as well, such an improvement in visibility even during cluttered fights! And as a bonus, aesthetically they look much nicer than the red outlined circles.
