Guild Wars 2

I know this is not a gameplay problem per se, but I find the ground effect for the Facets really distracting. The outlines are fine, but why we need the purple-orange pulsing blob under our feet, especially for something that’s potentially used for long periods of time, is beyond me.

With the recent patches to decrease visual clutter, maybe this could be looked at as well?

A million times yes.

This really bugs me too i wish they’d just remove the effect.

Well, the ticking clock of Mesmer was toned down; and those effects only lasted a few seconds at best.

Any day now…

Yep feel like they are focusing at the wrong issues here..

The longer I play Herald the more annoying this becomes. I don’t mind the “outside” glyph circle, but the bright pulsating interior really needs to go.

No. I like visual effects even simple ones like this. A slider that adjusts this on a per player basis is what’s needed. It’s bad enough what they did to elementalist fireball I don’t want them touching any other effects personally.

Adding my vote for this, it is a visual clutter and something quickly thrown together.. make em look like floating crystals instead n then were onto somerhing

We have been asking for this in the beta. Didn’t get much attention.

They could at least make that effect more translucent instead of current bright blink one.

Minor complaint, but I’ll throw my support behind it. Maybe just some mild aura effects for each, similar to how we can see the glow of each legend around the hands?

Protection could glow around the torso, might could intensify the hand glow, swiftness could glow around the legs/feet, fury perhaps the eyes, regeneration I’m willing to take suggestions on.
