Revamping of animations.

[Wevlum]

I have no idea if I'm imagining this or not but didn't they say a while back that 1.20 actions will use temporary animations until they can 'pretty' them up in 1.21? I was digging around trying to find where I might have read this but haven't found it yet.

Anyway I'll keep looking but just thought I'd post this to see if anyone else remembers it or if I dreamt it or something.

Nope didn't dream it;

To address these issues, patch 1.20 will see the adjustment and redistribution of actions for all classes. New actions will be added, and individual combos (name tentative) introduced. Further down the track, patch 1.21 will usher in the job system, which will serve as a new focal point for character development.
* The inner workings of actions will be prioritized in 1.20, and graphical resources will be reused where possible. Cosmetic changes are expected to commence from patch 1.21 and continue in stages ahead of Version 2.0.

So can I expect this in this patch or did they forget it?

Thats all I wanna know.

You can expect it to begin in 1.21 from my comprehension.

That might just mean that we get new animations for the new job WS's, but other animations might only be revised in later patches or 2.0.

To be honest it's not something they need to really make a topic on. The last time they made an animation topic was to show the scaling of everything since the animations already exist, they just replaced it temporarily.

Though the question is, whether they meant implementation between 1.21 - 2.0 or rather internal working starting after 1.21 launch (basically like how they're working on new servers and server tools that won't be put into play for version 1.x.)

I was thinking the same thing. No one has really mentioned it (neither the devs or players) so I thought I'd dreamt it or something. So either it's going to be a nice little surprise or it's been completely forgotten.

Think I perhaps needed more ?!?! and wild statements/accusations in the post title for things to kick off lol.

I want to know if this is still happening as well.

You won't know til 10 mins before the patch goes live

That quote stats they will be adding more animation up until 2.0 it does not state that everything will be done @ the same time. If you have not seen the Skill video then go check it out cause those are new animations.
