SCH shield effects

[SweetPete]

I don't know if anyone else feels this way but, I would love to see the sch shield effects actually remain around the target until time has elapsed or it has absorbed the damaged. I know this might be silly to some but, I just think it would be pretty cool to see. If others think that it will be to flashy maybe SE can implement something in customization to turn off effects. Maybe we already have it idk lol. Anyway, just thought I'd share. Fingers crossed they implement it in 4.0. We have way more flashier classes/jobs anyway.

I like this idea

If they could change the buff icon for Adlo when it crits that would be great. If they could manage a decent looking, possibly optional, shield ui, that would be even better! xD That's what i want out of storm blood. Better shield tracking.

I would very much like to see visible shields, for AST too. Also, I agree with wanting more ui support for them, like colouring the health bar for how much of the shield is left.

Hey guys thanks for responding. Maybe I will post this question on the live letter thread and it just might get picked. Allot of other games I played actually show shield effects. I am not sure why SE doesn't show it for SCH and AST. It will definitely make it easier to track.

Truthfully I think the visual effect you see when taking damage while under the effect of Protect is a little unnecessary. I think it would be more beneficial to have a similar visual to represent a shield from Scholar/Astrologian absorbing damage.
