dev1037 battle effects need a lot more than a resize

Some people find the glass half full, others find it half empty. Then I find people on here that complain they even have a glass at all.

The glass isnt merely half empty, it's dirty and has a chip in it, and I just cut my lip on it and am now bleeding profusely all over my good clothes which I borrowed from my brother who is now going to hate me and I need him on my good side to get his kidney when mine fails due to the water in this half empty, chipped, bloody glass being contaminated by pollutants.

I think that all of the ancient magic is horrible. You can rarely even make it work, and when it does it is just a little cloud of the element. This game has some of the best graphics for an mmo and has really awesome potential based off of other final fantasy games where the spells looked awesome. I know that the developers can make better spells and battle effects, even XI had better spell effects than this.

Not sure if it was posted in this topic but there was a comment about the battle effect on the french forum dev tracker.

Salut à tous ! Nous avons fait remonter vos commentaires à l'équipe de développement, et ils sont conscients de vos inquiétudes. Ces changements ne sont qu'une première étape de l'implémentation de meilleures animations de combat. Si ces changements n'arriveront pas tous en même temps, nous pensons que beaucoup d'autres améliorations sont nécessaires. Comme toujours, si vous avez des idées sur ce sujet, n'hésitez pas à partager vos réflexions !

After translation:

Hi everyone! We talked to the development team about your comments, and they are aware of your worries. These changes are only a first step in the implementation of better battle animations. Even if all those changes won't happen at the same time, we think that a lot more amelioration are necessaries. Like always, if you have idea about the topic, don't hesitate to share them.

I think that's encouraging.

Well I thought it was pretty obvious, but I guess when you're disappointed with something you don't see the bigger picture

I completely forgot this game had animations for abilities, weapon skills, and magic. o_o

I like the enhancement of the battle effects. I hope the [visual] enhancement will also include vivid additional animations for particular battle effects. Example: BATTLE REGIMENS!!!!!!! Please make these combos (or some of the combos) visually distinctive--instead of just pink limbs, weapons, and monsters.
