    I do not believe they are technically capable of making a separate animation for combo and reaction-trigger, or at least they consider it needlessly wasted effort as it is much simpler to have both on the same animation.
    Regardless, I still am unsure wether blinking or solid is better, but I would in fact prefer a blue color to a pink, because pink as it is now meshes way too well with the large amount of reds and browns in the WS buttons.

    I expected combos to have the same solid purple and reactions to have a new effect. I wouldn't mind if it was reactions only that blinked, but if that's not possible to do with the current system, I'd definitely say it's better for them to revert them all back to solid rings.

    This was my expectation as well.

    Was very surprised when my action bar lit up like a Christmas tree >.< and not in a good way XD

    The blinking is fine for the reaction skills, but making the combo skills blink as well was totaly unnessercary

    I don't mean to be rude, I just don't understand the problem ya'll are having.

    The icons blink when an action is made available. It blinks when your reaction commands are ready or when the combo commands are ready. I don't understand what the difference is between a solid glow or the blink.

    Headache mostly.

    I also prefer the solid one. Now i have to wait the purple circle to pop (again) to be sure i'm on the right skill to continue my combo (gamepad user here), even if i can deal with it, i'd still rather prefer the solid one, if they can bring it back to us, i'd be happy.

    Personally I have 2 reasons:

    1. I prefer solid rings over blinking overall. Not a big deal though. I can deal with it.
    2. More importantly, I would have liked there to be a distinction between combo commands and reaction commands. Even if something as subtle as a color difference.

    For archer, conj, and thaum I personally didn't see an issue at all. But those are the 3 most relaxed jobs in terms of action/ability and recast maybe my opinion would be different if I played Gladiator or something
