Thread: Suggestion for the new WAR animations in 5.0

I think the Decimate animation might go well after the Overpower animation. I don't like how Overpower is a cone aoe and Mythril Tempest is a 360 AOE. It just doesn't flow well.

Ideally, I'd want them to:

(1) Replace Mythril Tempest animation with Decimate Animation and have it be a cone AOE like Overpower (or just turn Overpower into a 360 AOE).
(2) Replace Decimate with Steel Cyclone
(3) Replace "upgraded" Steel Cyclone with Chaotic Cyclone
(4) Have new unique animations for Inner Chaos and Chaotic Cyclone

Or like you said, I think they could use the Brutal Swing animation. I think it looks better than Mythril Tempest. Which makes no sense. Like how would spinning an axe from the center like a staff be an attack? And it wouldn't even spin very well because it it's perfectly balanced, meaning if you were to spin it like with Mythril Tempest the center of the spin would have to be closer to the heavy axe head. Which means you'd just be hitting people with the butt of the axe shaft.

I dunno... I think the large fire ring that Mythril Tempest has makes the animation somewhat decent.

Also, I'd like for them to change the animation on the tank stance graphic. I don't like how the "wind" that wraps around the warrior looks flat, like a paper wrapped around into a silo shape.

I'd be okay with them removing the "wind" effect and just keeping the lightning effect of the stance graphic.

I think it'd be an improvement.

Or you know what?

Some of the fire effects that happen when you shift into deliverance/defiance could be looped to make it into the stance graphic. I think they look pretty good and would probably be an improvement over the current graphic.
