Geomancer makes me sick :(

[Mahouko]

I'm having the same problem sadly :/
I was in a Gusgen mines GoV group earlyer and after 2-3hours i had to leave because i noticed i was getting a really bad headacke... i felt like an old nanny for having this complaint but i'm happy to see that some others are having the same

I agree that it can be a little annoying, perhaps just a ground level effect would be nicer.

Yeah, I did receive a few headaches while leveling it for 2-3 hours in gusgen mines from the sphere effect.

I completely concur. Even though I don't experience any of the problems as stated in previous posts; there are those of us that may play the game and have health conditions which could be adversely affected by the animation of the Geomancer job...and in order to ensure those players have a fair shot at game play, Square Enix should be committed to adjusting this aspect of Geomancer's animation.

This is a very good point. I have actually been in Linkshells with members that had health conditions and treatment/medicine has vertigo as a common side effect. MMOs are a great escape for these players i can imagine, and i would hate for any of them to have to log off because of the GEO animations making them dizzy; ;. Linkshells might have to end up banning GEO from events to make these kinds of players feel welcome.

Hopefully SE does something quickly, the last thing they need is a reddit story about someone puking after playing FFXI >.> it will be the 18hr AV fight all over again.

I wonder if you get enough GEOs in the same place casting the same indi-/geo-spells on themselves, if the sphere will become opaque...

[Luvbunny]

It's getting really annoying now with all those Geo skilling up in Abyssea with their noxious cloud of death, You can imagine how grating this when they start swarming the Reive events and bring more lag on already very laggy events..... Maybe the purple butterflies will go straight for them since you know, AOE bubbles of death, at least they will hit the dirt faster than you can say, god bless!

Its annoying for party members of the GEO because it envelops our entire screen when the GEO is in range, especially when the GEO has up both a Geo and a Indi spell in close proximity, then I have to see two intersecting domes of two different colors/patterns/speeds/effects on my screen, one is large and green and the other is reddish brown and the animations are on top of eachother and annoy me, I can't even see what I'm fighting. Need to change the opacity of the GEO's sphere effects by a much wider margin, they're not translucent enough. Few suggestions:

1) Make the opacity lighter to make the dome more translucent.
2) Instead of making it a constant animation, make it pulse on and completely off every 10-15 seconds so it's less obnoxious.
3) Make the animation a circle on the ground(energy eminating from the earth rather than an awkward dome). The circle on the ground animation can look like the Summoning Magic sigil that appears on the ground when an Avatar spawns, only larger and less complex. Making the GEO's spells a 2-Dimensional circle on the ground is way easier to judge its range than a giant bubble.

confined areas like einherjar?

This is the only place I really seen a GEO (my playtime is a lot less then it used to be) just wondering if I match the confined area complaint.

Try leveling in Crawlers' Nest. I was in there with myself as GEO and 3 other GEOs. That adds up to 8 effects going at one time. The sad part is at that level we don't even have 8 effects to split between people evenly and the bonuses of the effects don't stack, so we had people with luopans up just to have them up. @.@
