The new icon for Pistol 2 (Bola Shot) should be reverted or improved

The new icon does not fit very well with the other four standard pistol skill icons. While the icon looks OK in isolation, it looks really bad next to

The main reason it doesn't match the other icons (other than possibly being done by a different artist) is probably due to the absence of bright thief colours (light red, light grey, and white), such as the white smoke in the background in the old icon; the background of the icon just doesn't match very well. I don't think I'll get used to the new icon unless the icon is changed to have a more fitting background.

It also only shows the end of the bolas, but as one is used to the bolas on a rope, the icon looks more like a weird arc of bullets.While the new name and icon of the skill are more fitting in the sense that the skill is mainly used to immobilize (rather than making your foe vulnerable with a body shot) and shoots an obvious pair of bolas from the gun, I would much much much rather the old icon back.

Compare with the Bola Shot icon in another game:

A third solution: perhaps Bola Shot could use the old Vital Shot icon, even though it immobilizes rather than cripples, due to it looking like a shot at the ankles.

TL;DR: The art for Bola Shot should be improved to better match other thief pistol skill icons, or the name and icon should be reverted to the name/art for Body Shot, which is now used by Vital Shot.

The reason it sticks like a sore thumb for you right now is because it new and doesn't have the 'red around a white aura around a black figure' coloration of many thief weapon skills, but look carefully at Headshot's background: while not as dark as Bolas Shot, it's more like Bolas Shot than the other 3 icons, red and black background and a white streak behind the figure, with no white 'aura'.

They could make the upper right side icon a little lighter to match the rest of the icons better, but it should not be reverted. The icon matches the skill animation much better. Grab a thief with a pistol, zoom in and use Bolas Shot, and you will see it actually fires bolas. If you pay attention and your FPS is high enough, you may even see that the weights on the ends of the bolas strings are actually tiny metal skulls.

They just need to change the name to Maracas Shot. Solved!

Better idea is to change skill)) it's barely used anyway.
