She actually SAYS, with a speech bubble, which weapon she's switching to. changing the order of when the buff on her is applied seems silly for something that is literally telegraphed with "IMMA WHACKAYOU WIT MAH SWORD!" Especially since the speech bubbles are bigger than your buff icons.Quote:

Shiva Battle are too bright and white

Maybe if they made it a bit of a ice blue (darker) to stand off the white, like when the adds pop, would be nice. But now I'm so used it to I just know what to look for, though I still mess up now and then. XDQuote:

This fight is insultingly easy so I wouldn't bother rallying for a change but I do agree that the "bombs" are difficult to identify on the fly at times. Since you can just stand and ignore them though /shrug

Multiple visual effects have been changed by the dev team because they realised after implementation that the visual effects were not good enough. The difference is, the Battle team knows the effects they are looking for, before they see them. As they test, when you know what you are looking for, it's easy to see.Quote:

The only mechanic I've had trouble with is the rings in Shiva, and I'm getting better as I do the fight more. That's just familiarity. Fortunately, I'm in a gear category where I can plan to get hit by one ring and easily survive.
Mind, the post you responded to was also silly. I have previously been a "Complaint Manager" for a large electronics manufacturer (PC's, printers, TV's, etc) and plenty of the complaints I got were valid, and my job was to help the customer out. You ARE complaining, and it IS a valid complaint. Many people have expressed frustration at the difficulty of visually identifying open sspace during this mechanic. -

Friend of mine is color blind and refuses to do the fight because of how the circle bombs blend. I can't say whether or not his impairment affects his ability to see the mechanic since everyone has trouble with it. Glad that a change is being looked into, because color blind players get dicked in many aspects of the game.
Somewhat unrelated, I found out during this fight that a different colorblind player who I'm also friends with cannot see the A waymark (red) on the bright blue. He can see B and C just fine. I always have to mark north with B which throws a lot of PF groups off. Not a huge deal but I'm sure a small change could be made to the waymarks so they are more colorblind friendly? (perhaps black or white outlines on the circle and letter). I think this would improve visibility for non-colorblind players as well since in fights like Titan the red or yellow can really blend in. -

She has a completely different animation for the sword draw and the staff draw.
I don't think you need to look at the weapon or the buff, just look at Shiva.
