biostem Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Simple request - could we get a generic energy ball/bolt option for Arcane Bolt - keep the animation exactly the same, but instead of the rune, just have your character project a generic energy ball or bolt. As an added bonus, perhaps we could get a simply will 'o the wisps or other option for the "Arcane" effect as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanden Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Like the Rune of Warding, or even more generic than that? Because I'd really like a permanent version of the Rune of Warding.

Basically for folks who like the power options, but not the theme? I can dig it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aracknight Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Rune of warding would be a fantastic alternate animation for arcane bolt. And so would immobilizing dart from ninja training as an alternate for toxic dart from experimentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plainguy Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I have brought this up before.. Every power pool should have complete alternate animation. E.G. AR/Device character should have the option of some tech or out of gun animation for example with Arcane.

Rudra Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) I have a hard time agreeing with that. The Sorcery pool should be arcane in appearance. Now, a tech pool that has similar abilities would be interesting. So I think it would be better for the devs to finish the origin pools rather than make the magic origin pool have tech options. Edit: To be clear, I am fine with non-rune animations for the Sorcery pool. I am against tech animations for it though.

Even if we rule out some sort of tech animation option, simply replacing the rune with a generic ball of energy would, IMHO, both permit options for magic characters that don't necessarily cast runes, and allow non-magic character to RP it. I mean, we have options for mystic flight and translocation that omit the runes... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhm... yeah... that would be part of why I said I was fine with non-rune animations.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
