    Earthly Star is super hard to see

    Especially with Lakshmi and her glowing floor. In comparison to whms bubble, and scholars sacred soil, Earthly star tends to blend into the background a bit.

    Just learned that ability on my AST a few days ago and I totally agree. I can't see where I placed at all if i put it smack in the middle of all the dps. It just doesn't stand out enough.

    I actually didn't know this skill existed at all until our raid group got together and our Astro had to point it out every time.

    I do agree that the visual indicator should be somewhat more visible.

    Right now, aside from the AST who set it, you're basically looking for the gold glitter ring that's a bit faint or the small glowing orb with some of said glitter around it. Between all the flashy new abilities going off from the tank, DPSBahamut egi and even the enemy itself (and sometimes it can blend right in with the surroundings). Also, unless you're really familiar with the difference between Earthly Dominance and Giant Dominance, there's very little visual indicating the difference aside from the light being somewhat larger and brighter.

    By no means is it "easy" to miss, but if the fight is "busy" enough the whole thing can come off as a little too subtle. and I think the gold sparkles of the perimeter of the affected area should either change color or be a bit more numerous when Giant Dominance has taken effect.

    I find it a little hard to tell when it's powered up in difficult fights too. It would be nice if the icon changed noticeably or the proc animation showed up.

    I was just thinking about that today lol My friend keeps remind us on voice chat to stop running out of it. Its not that we're running out of it I was just running back to my fav spot after an aoe heal. I didnt even know it was out with all of the spell spam from all the other jobs in omega fights lol

    It doesn't matter if it's hard to see. People actively stand outside my WHM and AST bubbles even if it's right in front of their face. As it is I just assume they have a death wish and laugh at them if they die because they didn't take the heal. /s

    That being said, would be nice if it was a little easier to see.

    This. Don't expect people to maneuver for this even if it was perfectly visible. You just have to place/use it smartly. The skill requires a little foresight to use properly anyway.

    Not only is it hard to see:
    1. The AOE placement is a tiny thing, and not the full AoE circle, so we probably place it incorrectly.
    2. People are almost NEVER inside of it.
    In my experiences, using Collective, most times people would come to me and chill in the bubble with me.
    Same as WHM.
    But ES? Nope, miss it almost all the time. It's a pretty skill to but it needs to be more visible.
    Maybe a bubble with stars falling from the inside and when potency increases, more or brighter stars?
    Or hell, let the dominance thing become a big star twirling star going "STAND HERE!".

    It also suffers from when players turn down spell effects to limited because you really want to see the boss during ex / savage.
