Thread: Please change the Dark Knight effect for the skill: Darkside

I do believe almost all of Dark Knights (and even non-DRKs) agree that the current effect is horrid. An eye-sore, something that just doesn't make sense.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe a lot of people like this and think it's beautiful. There's only one way to find out.

People on the English forums, please show me (and Square Enix) your opinion.

I'm not being heart-broken, the class certainly has more to it than the effect and I won't stop playing it.

However, any good Dark Knight MUST have this effect on as long as possible to be effective. In other words, we HAVE to live with this eyesore every single time we play and it's only understandable that we might harbour strong feelings towards it.


Prove me right and let's hope the developers decide to do something, anything, about it. Or prove me wrong, and I will not argue and accept that the majority of people like what they see.


(Forgive me for creating yet another of these threads. I couldn't help myself.)

It's the most irritating/unpleasant effect in the game.

Like, I'm sure it's bothersome to some. I guess it's more noticeable when they are idling in a city-state/town/etc. It doesn't really bother me though. I even don't realize the effect ongoing while we are doing dungeons/trials. But to make EVERYONE happy, I just say let this effect be toggled on and off, or only let the effect persist during combat. So when a DRK has Darkside up while NOT in combat, it won't show the effect. My suggestion. I'm sure there are better ones.

So you dont like the visual of it?

I really don't! Frankly I'd rather have no visual at all rather than the one in use at the moment. Even the above suggestion of being off when not-in-combat would be a step in the right direction. I don't think we are asking for much! Again, maybe we are just a vocal minority and I can accept that. I don't believe we are, hence the poll.

The current aura looks horrible and should be changed. I vote for the aura the dark clone NPC on the level 50 Dark Knight job quest had.

The poll isn't going to prove anything, one way or the other. The forums have an extremely high bias towards the negative for any subject, since people are far more likely to post on the forums to complain than to praise. Not to mention the horrid self-selection bias.

The only way for a poll to actually work is if SE sent out the poll to all subscribers, or to a truly random sampling of subscribers.

As for me, the aura doesn't bother me, and I main DRK. However, I wouldn't be opposed to it being changed either... as long as it wasn't changed to something lame.

Not signed, I like the aura.
