I find the persistent Darkside animation too big and distracting.

Does anyone else feel this way? I wish it were just a little more subtle.

Think it's just fine the way it is.

Yeah, especially that one attack where he/she stabs their sword onto the ground and begin using is at a dancing pole

How about no. I have my effects set so that I see no skill effects outside of my own party yet Darkside completely ignores the filter, so no matter where I go Edgy McEdgeson is afk with the aura on for no reason and cluttering my screen. It's obnoxious.

That aura is so annoying I don't even want to learn that job ever. It is so annoying in town that I just want to /slap every Dork Knight I see. It's too big and obnoxious and I want to be able to filter if out.

They've already stated Darkside is working as intended. Every job has something annoying about it. I get tired of hearing Hyur screams during battle and hearing/seeing monks build up Chakra. I agree they should allow it to be filtered with other effects, but you shouldn't hate on those playing the class because it's not.

They should turn it off in town at the very least - instead of annoying people with it.

You mean the bug report? Meh. They also moved the bug report of the achievement you get after completing "I Believe I Can Fly" to working as intended section so I still have hope.

Speak for yourself, I think the aura looks cool. Besides, the majority of the drk skillset is reliant upon the aura being on so if I'm passing thru town to repair my gear or trade at a vendor why bother turning it off to turn it back on 5 secs later when my queue pops (tank queues lol) or for when I tele back out to the field anyways. If I'm planning on AFKing or spending an extended period of time in a town I turn it off to be courteous to people who don't like it. But tbh its really no different than BRDs who use flaming arrow in town or Derpgoons who spam Ring of Thorns (highly more annoying as it makes a stupid sound over and over)

I don't think its my intent to be annoying to anyone. I can't speak for all, but it is just something I don't think about when I leave a duty. If someone said "hey you are annoying me with that Darkside effect, can you please turn it off", then I would have no issue turning it off.

Um, it's entirely different from effects that only happen once in response to a specific action. This aura is on FULL TIME on AFK DoRKs. At least make it so that it follows the UI setting for turning off other's animations. Then, you can be all happy with your dark edginess and not be annoying everyone else.
