Quality of Life Request - Option to Disable Personal Auras

[SwolezilZozyl]

Newer player enjoying the game a lot, but I just hit 35 as Warrior and the Beast Gauge aura really bothers me. I like to take my time in the world, just appreciating the scenery and the look of my armor. Having an orange tornado swirling around me really interferes with that.

The best solution I've found is to switch classes and switch back to empty the beast gauge, but despite this interfering with gameplay (by setting my health lower and emptying my resource pool) its just tedious having to do it every time I fight an enemy.

To clarify, I'm not asking for these auras to be disabled by default, or even disabled out of combat, as I'm sure there are people who enjoy standing around with a swirly aura around them. I just want an option to toggle it off. Thank you for reading my extremely specific gripe

I agree, but did we really need another thread about this?

I'm not sure I understand what you're hoping to accomplish in this new thread that you couldn't have done in either of those.

Both those threads were in tank roles, and I thought the issue fit better into user interface.

They have a post count of 4, 2 taken from this thread alone. Everyone makes mistakes and they are visibly new to the forums.

I would like there to be an option to disable BLM’s fire/ice orb effects too. It looks a big silly to always have these orbs floating around you and kind of detracts from what the real focus should be; the massive explosions!

I would like this as well. During dungeons and fights in general I don't mind it as much, but during quests or other stuff the effects are really annoying. Right now, I'm changing classes between battles to reset the gauge to get rid of the effect, but well, it resets the gauge and that's stupid.

This is one of those graphics that has kind of lost what little meaning it had. It might be more helpful if it had distinct energy based on your Beast Gauge (so it's way more pronounced at higher amounts), but alas, it's rather empty in intent and serves no meaningful purpose. We would be better off without it.
