Question for Scholars and those who wish to try: Are Scholars eco friendly?

[Eloah]

I'll elaborate on the intro. I've noticed this for a while but since I main scholar it doesn't bother me as much. Anyway, I was chatting in my LS and asked, "does anyone else think scholars abilities are too green?". Well a friend of mine, who doesn't use scholar that much commented that, yeah, they have so much green in their abilites, all the same shade too. She commented that it can get confusing for her as to which is succor or adloquium.

So my question is does anyone else feel this way? And if so, do you think SE should adjust the colors a little for more diversity? I know they adjusted the ninja abilities because they were hard for colorblind people to distinguish, do you think they should do the same for the scholar skills? Also if they do change the colors which colors should they be? Like should the galvenize abilities stay green and the others change, or should they all stay green but just be different shades?

Any feedback on this would be good, or any deveolper commentary.

Apparently, I need to be a bit more clear, because what I was talking about was too subtle. I am referring to the icon colors, not the animations.

What. I don't even know if this is serious or not. All of the classes have a color scheme if you pay attention. Most of their abilities flash a certain color.. Usually that color somewhat corresponds to the color of their job crystals. For example, white mages abilities are mostly white/blue, warriors abilities are mostly red, scholars are mostly green. Watch the new videos from 3.0 and you can see that DRK is a deep purple/red.

Snip

You missed the point I was making, I wasn't talking about the auras or individual color schemes for each job. Imwas talking about the color of the ability icons. Adloquium, Succor, Leeches, Sacred Soil, Lustrate, the icons are all the same color green, and for some people that might get/be confusing. If you remember they adjusted the ninja icons for a similiar reason. I was inquiring if anyone else feels that they are too green, as in the icons should look more diverse. That was my question, I just tried to play it up a little for laughs. Which I guess didnt work. So would you like to offer your opinion? Maybe?

[Ninimo_Babamo]

You never once said icons in your original post. :s And it really doesn't bother me at all. You put them on a button and get used to it and eventually stop looking.

[Eloah]

Granted I didnt say the icons specifically, but I doubt it was a far leap to guess that I was talking about the icons. But anyway, you dont mind them okay. Maybe someone else feels differently.

I often get confused when I decide to Sch (it's not my main, but I can do it in a pinch) I don't know the icons that well and I have to mouse over them to know which is which. If I mained SCH it may not be as much a problem.

I main SCH, and while I have my abilities memorized on my hot bar, I don't find them confusing. Although they are the same color of yellow/green - they each have different designs that correspond to their purpose. Some additional splash of color would be nice, but I don't find it necessary

For those struggling, I think a good way to familiarize is focus on the design and not the color, and place specific abilities in a location on your hot bar that reminds you what it corresponds to. You don't get them all at once, so you have time to become adjusted to each ability as you unlock it.

Yeah this is pretty much how I feel. I'm use to the moves and I feel they do look different enough, but some slight pops of color would be nice. I guess one of the biggest issues I have, which is reletively minor, lol, is that the crossbar just looks so green. Every other job the crossbar looks diverse and colorful, but with Scholar its green everywhere, lol. Hopefully, the new abilities we get wont be so green.

I don't ever confuse the two, especially with muscle-memory (my Adlo is set to all the same position on all my crossbars, as is Succor)

But even if I didn't have it memorized, they look different enough to me.
