I have yet to remake my old spider from live, but back then, your unlockable 2nd costume could use any costume pieces, except the backpack slot which was locked into spider
I had a War Mace Tanker on live, I based him off of an enemy character in the MMO Anarchy Online. I never got tired of playing him, I solo'd him to 50, BEFORE the buff. It took FOREVER, but I didn't mind.
The Animus Arcana...
like omg I can't even see the Cloud of Ices and Lightning storms, then I try to tab target and it selects some enemy a mile away instead of this stupid Animated staff thats right next to me that I can barely even see let alone click on it to target. UGHHHHHHH
I think you're correct. I only remembered the swipe change because it was such a long animation (even though i liked the flurry of scratches). I forgot slash was changed and used to be that long wind up move. I remember eviscerate being the way it was at launch.
