I agree about the ball obly...it shoulf be replaced with some "breaking" battle effect like flying particles everywhere instead of this ball. It was acceptable before, but with the battle effect increase it just became too ugly.

I like most of PGL animations tho...i guess only pounce really would deserve a quick animation revamp. And victimize maybe...even though i like the "burning fist" effect. Better than that only if they make it like those WWF dudes that first use left hand to put the target in position for them beat him with right hand. Also, victimize reminds me a similar action from FFT serie where the monk uses a burning fist action with low accuracy but that destroys the target if lands.
