Dev1037 Enhancement of Battle Effects

[Teknoman]

I dunno, I like the bigger/sharper HP/MP/TP gauges. The battle effects arent "blinding" either, and after running around NM hunting in a 5 person party the other day, I could see the monsters just fine. Even when fighting a normal enemy or watching a larger party we could still keep track. I know this isnt the only change, but it actually worked out nicely in making what we already have, look better...and actually closer to classic FF titles, with the large slashing/magic effects.

Buffs like Rampart and Ferocity look alot better just from the sharpness and size increase. Skull Sunder actually looks like a concussive wave that could cause slashing damage over time, not just some small, fairly normal looking slash attack. That and you guys might need to space out abit, take advantage of your weapon's attack radius.

EDIT: And there is also the point one of the team members made that this wasnt the only thing that was going to happen.

I like how they increased the size of a lot of effects. Have you seen the effect for Phalanx? it looks so awesome now, even sounds more awesome (even tho it probably has the same sound effect)

Yes^^ Phalanx does look better now and I think they increased the sound effect volume on it or something. Also for Luminious spire the weapon trail is bigger and they fixed the animation bug it had so that with a longsword now it really does "Imbues your blade with brilliance" as per description. Before it only worked on small swords.

Spell effects looks good. But some weapon skills, I can't see animation of Semian Trash behind effects! Please, make them smaller.
