    Darkside Aura .. hurts my eyes. Can't turn it off.

    Finally going to get around to editing this!

    I would either like it removed, or changed to this!

    - Focuses around the character.
    - More Variety in colors, does not hurt your eyes as much.
    - Way better effect, feels darker.

    It just obnoxious to run around with it on all the time. Completely unnecessary to stand around in town with it on for no other reason than "I'm so dark and awesome!". i hope it's toned down or better yet collapsed closer to the character. I would personally like centered on my left arm ( something like a sigil/ phantasmal) gauntlet, definitely not so large an effect that it encompass my summoned mount and myself at the same time.

    They could just center the aura around the weapon. That would be kind of cool imo.

    The aura needs to start obeying the "Battle Effect Settings" in the character configuration menu. I have that option set to show *no effects* for people outside of my party, and yet everywhere I go there's the aura effect from random Death Knight's filling my screen. It's particularly annoying when you're talking to an NPC and there's a DRK idling right next to you. I want to see my character when I play.. not the effects from a random DRK filling up the view.

    Fix it so it follows the "Battle Effects Settings" rule like all other effects in this game.

    Well, a lot of the DRK moves are a bit too excessive. Cool on their own but when you actually chain them with abilities like they are meant to its obnoxious.

    Throwing my hat in in agreement x.x Putting such an intrusive effect on an effect the majority of the discipline's players won't ever be turning off.. how on earth could that have seemed like a good idea?

    And what the heck happened with the devs' promise to look into an option to specifically disable weapon/personal glows?

    Well it isn't just that. The attacks are so flashy that I can't even see the cool sword animations my character has. Whats the point of having animations when i'm always covered in darkness?

    I think a much closer to the body effect would be pretty neat, I imagine you could turn the current effect into the pick nearly any anime "aura" of power effect (the current one closer to the body would be very kaioken). Though if I had to pick from the many variations I'd hope for smokey trailing effects with an ink and charcoal kind of dark, something visible yet not intensely distracting. Can beef it up in combat with a bit more billowing smoke and embers appearing (and or by turning red).

    So with all the dark effects going on at once you become a blur of darkness lol (at least when active), I think that matches the rest of the big dark 'flashy' effects.

    Google sort of example:

    Not so much of an aura, but thinking of a shadowy outline could work:


    Did you notice he was in a basketball outfit.. lol
