Afterglow effect - option to disable or to move it to the weapon only?

[Jakuk]

Until SE says there is no graphical changes whatsoever and to not suggest any changes to it. It is speaking for them through guesswork and reinterpretation.

True, but by the fact they screwed GEO and RUN over with no afterglow but the same ridiculous cost to upgrade, it's a fairly informed guess.

I'm not trying to change the mind of anyone who wants to make their own truth through SE replies. I only comment on the reality that we don't know 100% through theory. Feeling like the forum needs to be policed for suggestions because it is eating potential dev and community rep time is ridiculous to me.

We are well past the heyday of development for this game.. There are only a handful of people still working on it, and I believe that it's an exercise in futility to expect/ask for anything significantly difficult to implement. I brought up FP only to point out that, as far as I know, they have not said that they have anyone left on staff who is capable of creating art/models/animation.

At this point, I believe that it is far more productive to tailor our requests to work within the stated/known limitations that the dev team has to work with. Please think of my critical posts not as policing, but instead splashing cold water on the OP to wake them up from their dream. There are just not enough people on staff to make many dreams reality at this point. It has nothing to do w/ ComRep time and I would be ecstatic if we heard from them more frequently. Dev time is only a concern for me because the devs have said it's a concern for them.

In addition to an on/off switch (which I am in support of,) the OP also asked to move the AG effect from the static center of the character model to the weapons themselves (and weapons move around a whole lot more than our center mass so it's likely there'd have to be adjustments made directly to the animation of the AG effect itself.) That sounds to me like a task with whole lot of time/effort involved, with zero impact on how anything actually works, so does not sound like a good idea to me even if you were to ignore all of the technical limitations involved. I'd prefer the dev team focus on bug fixes and adding new stuff to do and/or collect.

An informed guess is still a guess in the end. Doesn't make it a fact or something the company said themselves.

All it boils down to is if SE wants to and can provide something, they will. Calculating what content we receive versus cosmetics in an update and stating it as factual information is just misrepresentation.

All these paragraphs over a minor graphical suggestion. The need to feel vindicated and right is real. It's ok to disagree.

Can't you make a second relic of the AG one and keep it as 75? It would fix the solution. Have an AG and a non-AG weapon and bam! Lockstyle the non the AG one with no loss and no fuss!

I've never tried myself, but I've been told by many others that you can not have two copies of any same-name REMA, regardless of upgrade status.

This, the rare tag is exclusive to the weapon regardless the level, the minute you get to where it becomes the named weapon you can not continue or collect it unless you drop your current.

actually, trial of magian dumps that concept as long as your not doing the current trial at that time, same weapon, different trial.

however you are right, the "Rare" status prevents weapons of the same name being attained twice, a +1 or +2 must be added to the name in order to change it to something else

The Trial weapons that can be duped are only tagged EX. You can't have a lv85 Twashtar and a 119III one is my understanding.
