I miss the reload animation.
That's... pretty much it. I don't even miss the effect of reload, though it was fun to use. I've enjoyed Stormblood Mch more than Heavensward Mch, and Shadowbringers Mch has been fun as well. I just miss the neat reload animation. Maybe we can get it as an emote?
I'm in favor of this, or at least slapping the animation onto something. It was a nice animation and as much as I felt like the skill itself was just a pretty boring maintenance skill (though granted it did allow the nice 121323 combo) it did feel nice to slap some more bullets into your gun on the way to the next fight. A sort of "I'm ready, bring em on" kind of gesture.
I think it would've made more sense to give us some kind of ammo system with with the old Reload animations and charges instead of the current Hypercharge. It would've been an improvement for the latency problems but instead they decided to stick to tight timers and make the ping issues worse by using the charge system for ogcd spam. If only they realized ninja is not the only job suffering at high latency...
I'm also missing the old spell form HW, the one that down ennemy's magic attack from 10% during 10 sec. The MCH took a sniper stance to shot at the ennemy, I really miss it.
I was thinking "Reassemble" should be "Load Special" Not sure why reassembling whatever it is you're supposedly putting back together makes it do stupid damage, but putting in some special ammunition definitively would. Perfect place to re-add the reload animation and maybe a few more guns with that special reload animation.
Hypercharge animation should get the Reload animation. Makes sense that you slap bullets into your gun that let you spam Heat Blast. Also Head Graze should have the Dismantle animation where you interrupt a spell or skill by throwing a wrench at the foe.
