The visual design of AST is top notch

[Elamys]

Can we get them to work on whm? Scholar could use a bit of beautifying too. =/

can we just have one thread without a whm or sch complaining about something

The beautiful effects are why I main astro.

Probably not until at least 4.1.

On a positive note, AST abilities are indeed beautiful, and the Job is extremely fun to play. A+ for the dev team where AST is concerned, at least.

Earthly star is beautiful, and people make an effort to stand in it because it looks nice.

Malefic III is like a stellar version of the stone 3 visual, which i enjoy.

AST has the Galaxy.
SCH shooters missiles, pew pew.

WHM hits enemies with a coffin.

I actually really like StoneIV, much more than III, The blurry screen and shacky aspect upsetted me.

Nonetheless, WHM do need some love for their visual, too similar overall. It's hard to distinguish anything unless you know the job well.

I know many people are also upset about the WHM becoming morea Holy Mage than the... "nature healer" he's suppose to be.

As far as I can tell, people have requested more water spell, we've yet to see them.

Were you here during 3.0?

Short answer: Unlikely. Just like AST complaining back then.

They could make some really cool looking effects with nature spells. But I suppose they've decided to totally drop that aspect of it and go for holy mage.

Don't get me wrong holy spells look cool, but they're not very aesthetically pleasing.

WHM hits enemies with a coffin.

Technically vertical cubical rectangles... That explode outward

That sounds like the violent clacking of pool balls.

I still cant make sense of it. I like it though.

By this point I can only guess that they're holding the other water spells in reserve for Blue Mage or Geomancer.
