Now that players can hide it,can we have a better looking Darkside aura?

Guys, guys... you could have ALL of these things, it's not a case of 'oh if we fix pld's battle calculations then there's no way the graphics team could possibly change the effect of darkside's aura to be more visible and interesting'.

Different dudes with different jobs on the dev team.

I thought this would be quite obvious. The graphics team =/= battle system team.

I did the initial DRK quest on my alt yesterday and Darkside seems like it was described as a blood-looking aura that flowed around the DRK. What we have now... doesn't really look like that, and I can't imagine it'd be too difficult to make that effect.

I remember watching the Heavensward class trailer and seeing that DRK Au Ra with the epic black flames fighting. I was like damn that looks sick, then I played the class and got something so awfull it makes you want to take a fork jam it into your eyes.

Please give us the level 50 DRK aura or the one in the trailer, current one is horrible.

Exactly,the aura for darkside not only looks bad,but it's barely visible. You only really see it if there aren't many others around you and it's night time.At this point,any other aura would be better than what we have now.

After seeing the amazingly well done auras for the other jobs,I know they're capable of giving darkside a better looking and more noticeable aura.

how Darkside animation made it to ingame like that...is beyond me...it really needs a better effect , is annoying and ppl wanted it gone because it looks bad....u dont see ppl screaming remove WAR aura...or DRG one... yeah they arent permanent outside combat but still...

It's in the graphic settings.Turn down the effects for other players/yourself and you'll stop seeing the aura.

That's been around since forever. I've had other effects off for at least a year. Isn't there an option to just turn off the Aura only?

[Alahra]

There actually is no option to turn off Darkside just by itself. You can filter your personal effects to Limited, which will remove it, but it also removes a lot of your *other* effects.

Camate (I think it was Camate anyway) mentioned that we were supposed to be able to specifically target Darkside, but that didn't end up being what we got.

Because addressing Dark Aura was really that important. (sarcasm)

Well, personally, The Aura Effect, especially enmass in places like hub towns, The effect would make me feel motion sick.

So the fact that at least most of them are off on average outside of battle really helps my QoL as a gamer.
