Skill animations
+1. You’re right. Ranger animations aren’t so stylish, except the GS ones. Those are okay.
I would like to see similar dinamic animations like Vindictus’s “KAI” class has.

Get Kudzu. Voila, your arrow shots are not boring anymore.
The nice animation went to warriors with their flaming arrows. The shortbow gets some color with poison spread but it’s a crappy skill anyways.
Ranger has lacked polish for a long time. It’s a rough around the edges class that hasn’t met it’s full potential in any area of the game yet. Though I do apologize that you can’t enjoy a class that doesn’t have flashy looking skills, but I understand.
I’m the complete opposite, I feel that guild wars 2 is filled with a lot of “fluff” animations that crowd the screen during combat and at times make reacting to combat almost a moot point, and I would love to see some of the skill effects dumbed down a little so gameplay would look smoother and be easier to follow.

is it me or are the skill animations for rangers really boring and simple.
Then again, I sometimes wish my opponents could NOT see a huge grizzly bear come out of a little asuran tipping them off that a maul is coming.
See you in Tyria.
i guess but like a little animation for the bows would be nice not talking like Japanese style but like something to make the class unique instead of yeah i fire arrows all day long.
I wish rangers had more cool animations like Swoop, Serpent Strike, Maul ect.

The bow skills are all a tad run of the mill, but all the melee weapons, and the offhand weapons have some cool stuff going for them (whirling defense looks super sick imo). Barrage does look pretty awesome too, and it’s animation is misleading vs its actual radius.

I have an azureflame (which needs to be fixed in stowe!!), and it should fire blue flame arrows… Or at least if it were a precursor to a black azureflame legendary that shoots black flaming arrows…
Ohh, sweet sweet dreams
Meh, cruel cruel world

Sword MH animations are the reason I made asura ranger.
