Spell-casting animation..?

[Elexia]

it looks like a girl should be doing it which is why i like it lol. i play a girl character and i think it looks perfect for her. Its like the tera animations really girly and cool

I wouldn't call Tera's animations "girly and cool"...but I think I get what you're trying to say.

Reminds me of my old Mage casting Frostbolt...

I found the animation a bit weird as well - a bit cartoony.

The projectile spells and attacks are going to be awesome though.

Let's hope the Fire spells end up more like the FFXII versions.

I prefer the animation we have now. Seems that I have master the art, this new one looks like I'm trying to.

Kinda agree with this, the animation we have now may be dull but it really feels like we're in control of the situation and the magic we're casting.

I blame the belly dance for making the new animation look awkward.

Forget the spell casting animation. Look at that fall rate and distance of the combat scrolling text. It's clearly not using the correct terminal velocity equation V = sqrt ( (2 * W) / (Cd * r * A) and just looks unnatural not falling at a represented 9.81 meters per second.

They need to drop everything they are doing and fix this now because it is the most important thing for me in the game and I could never enjoy it otherwise. I understand this is alpha but they are risking a PAYING customer here.

I'm sure everyone noticed something *weird* about the way Yoshida's hyur was casting his spells in the last Live letter.

The first second for the casting animation is good, when you swing your weapon in a circle and it makes a cool effect (like what the Lalafell did in the trailer) but then the delay animation looks like a..



Whatever this is, it looks silly, don't you guys agree?
I hope it's a temporary animation, not *final* for ARR.

I was so busy saying OMG MAGE IS MOVING.... GOOD! to even begin to complain about how he was moving. I have no complaints. I like spell-casting to be dramatic as hell though.

Ask yourself this. How would Harry Potter do it?

It should be further improved in my opinon
