Machinist's Clean Shot Animation

[Bablioteca]

Does Clean Shot's animation bug anyone else? For the most part in my short leveling experience with machinist, their skill animations have been pretty tame but more or less functionally practical:

Shoot with both hands while aiming, shoot with one hand, shoot with one hand and have a bigger recoil, drop to one knee to two-hand fire some big wind bullet, shoot what looks like a flare in the air and let it land on them for a dot... and then we have for some reason a jump into the air 360noscopeblazeitmlgshot. I know I'm nitpicking but it just feels kind of silly. Clean Shot Animation : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCkjk8us5u8


I mean come on, really? Why? Why are you doing that? Does the sweet aerial twirl somehow make the bullet hurt more? Stop.

In a game where people are shooting fireballs out of their hands and sprouting massive wings from their backs I don't expect anyone to really agree with me, but I thought I'd just throw my feelings out there.

If we're going to have the unnecessary flare why not something more like this? A totally different flavor of (gun themed) ridiculousness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulEeIUDxbaQ

Meh. Doesn't bother me nearly as bad as the ninja's mutilate animation...SLASH SLASH, unnecessary backflip!!

[ThirdChild_ZKI]

Lol, it's quite simple really: kicking ass is one thing. Doing it with style is where it's at. :P

I find i really enjoy flashy over-exaggerated animations; I enjoyed Windbite on BRD way more than I should have.

I would rather the focus be on the shots looking cool rather than me looking cool shooting.

However MCH is pretty light on the animations (far uglier than BRD) so I'll take what I can get.

That flip adds inertia to the bullet, making it does more damage
Trust me, I'm an engineer

Mutilate animation is awesome especially if you are locked and strafing out of an aoe while doing it. I like the animations in this game honestly. It adds some eye candy to the mix.

Well, you aren't the only one bothered by it... of that I am sure, since I am a fellow "wtf was that" person in that regard.

That fire reminds me of shooting the .460 magnum. Hand cannon. Sombitch fires cartridges the size of AA batteries.
