Lonewolf Kai.3682 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Speaking from a Charr toon, I noticed the Specter Elite well skill has the same jump animation as the Vindicator dodge. The Specter even does the weapon twirl at the end. Talk about being a thief! I protest this. If this is going to happen then give us at least our mist trail from our core dodge while we jump up. 1 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidel.2057 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Vindicator has no unique animations, not even the signature dodge. Not to mention it has 4 utility skills with the same animation and 4 gs skills with only 2 different animations. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonynja.3172 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Hopefully unique animations do get made before EoD launch. The revenant has such a cool visual theme with the Mists. It's totally reasonable not to have all that done during betas - testing gameplay fundamentals was a good priority, and we saw major improvements between beta rounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so but that would be the first time. They never changed animations from pof/hot betas. Except maybe Renegade charrs, but they just changed the shaders, not the actual animations. We must let them know it's an issue currently. I'm not saying Vindicator should be like Firebrand or Virtuoso having 10+ flashy animations and effects, but there must be a middle ground. Again, it currently has 8 skills sharing 2 animations total. And they're not even good animations.

Vasdamas Anklast.1607 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Second attack animation for GS 4 was a major turn off for me. Particles is the only thing that looks unique in Vindicator aside from Elite abilities for new legendR E C Y C L E D 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buran.3796 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 The only original theme from the spec is the audio design (which I like), but in terms of animations is a full copy & paste of Ranger and Necro skills which have been there for ages. This what happens when you plan to not release new expansions and then 180º turn on the fly against the chrono. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jthug.9506 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I suppose spear of Archamorus and urn of st. Viktor are the only unique original animations on vindicator. I’m somewhat sympathetic to the GS not having a bunch of original animations because any unique animations added to GS would have required also going back and adding new unique animations to Exordium. However in light of that, there should have been more variety in the reused animations on GS, GS3 at least should have probably been lifted from the gs leap on guardian for instance, and maybe the flip on GS4 should just be a single 360degree spin lifted from guardian gs3 as opposed to another conical attack (which would also make it more useful and dangerous in all game modes). Also it would be nice to see some more original and unique animations in legendary alliance stance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GS landing anim is far better than any 1 hander, not to mention the ground explosion. Edited December 17, 2021 by Lonewolf Kai.3682 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
