Combo Light Blinking

[Eyn]

Solid glim is better than the current confusing blinks.

I can live with it, but I prefered the solid glowing too for combos.

The problem with blinking is that for people who only quickly glance at their action bar to see if combos/etc landed can do so between blinks and miss the indicator. I do this myself. I can live with with, just means that I have to look at my action bar a fraction longer, but I would have prefered solid glow myself, though. Extending the indicators for reactionary abilities was a great addition in any case.

I do think the blinking on combos actually made it less obvious when your combos were landing and continuing. However, I am not annoyed by blinking on the UI and find that a bit silly... I mean our HP bars have wavey cycling animations, this is FF, things are going to glow, blink, etc.

I don't mind the blinking on the reactionary skills but I think I had the reaction that it wasn't quite obvious enough, at least on a Paladin and Warrior since the color is a cooler blue and not extremely noticeable.

Just my 2 cents; I really appreciate reactionary skills lighting up now as that was a much needed addition to the game.

It suddenly dawned on me what people are talking about with the missing combos. /derp

I haven't had this problem (hence my slow to realize it) because when I do a combo, I look at the next skill in line for the combo. If it lights up, it means I connected and I can continue the combo. If it's not lit up, I take it that I missed and I move on.

That helps to know when you can use those block or evasive or parry skills better... in the midst of confusion sometimes is harder to know if you blocked or parry for example. Will make things easier and use them more frequent. If you don't like that blink thing instead saying to remove it you can say them to improve or change the effect, no?

At least for me I see it useful atm.

I think the point they're getting at is they have too many combo sequences set to one bar, which results in a lot of flashing lights at once. I don't myself, but I see what they're saying.

[Estellios]

I'd like it to flash faster, honestly. Would make it stand out more and wouldn't be missable if you blink =P

[syntaxlies]

is there a way to adjust it so the flash flashes to the beat of the music.

If that happens, please change all themes to techno-remixes of their original forms.

-.- Is it possible for the blinking when the next time in a combo is available be reverted back to the solid light? Or we have the option to toggle it? Flashing light for the reaction-based skills is fine, but the flashing everywhere is kind of annoying me.

Several times now when on BLM i've glanced down at my skill bar and I looked in the breif second inbetween flashes and I thought my first spell and missed and my combo failed. I prefered it when the ring was solid.

Yes, I had the same thought yesterday. I was like wtf, this is annoying. Toggle on/ off please
