Nomaad Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I don't know about you guys, but I think the new fire animation when you hit 30 stacks of fury is downright horrible, my fps drops like a rock so im forced to pan my camera distance out more. When i'm playing on my healer I rely more on looking at players rather than starring at my ui which I don't like to do when someone needs a purge, and a marauder surrounded by fire all the time im always purging them. Not a qq or anything, but im not a big fan of b/w's fascination with fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Projawa Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) I see your point. However, I love the new fire animation. Thanks BW. Edited June 18, 2013 by Projawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaos_KidSWTOR Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I play my marauder all the time with little to no FPS drop with 30 Fury... I think your PC is the issue at that point. what GPU are you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomaad Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 16gb ddr3 2tb hd amd 7670 2gb amd fx 8120 8 core processor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaos_KidSWTOR Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 16gb ddr3 2tb hd amd 7670 2gb amd fx 8120 8 core processor. 16gb of ddr3?!? thats like overkill... Can i get an Nvidia equivalent to that AMD? I only use Nvidia so yea.. and i dont belive that an 8 core processer exists (i could be wrong. but you know my dad DOES work on computers for a living so yea...) My box has a GTX 560 (%5 overclocked) everything else is not worth mentioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JymmyMorison Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 well i would the say the gpu here since ive got the same fx 8120(it does have 8 cores), 8 gigs of ram and a gtx 670 and the new animation doesnt cause any fps issues, the card you have is just a mid range card for basic desktop usage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, you cant discount me for not being quite in the loop. just never saw anything about a 6 core processer on the market (the logical jump from quad core IMO) and did not think tech would jump from quad to 8 core processers.

NogueiraA Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 At the FIRST 30 stacks my FPS has no changes. After 50 Channel Hatred, my fps dropped to 10. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYrKQlRRF7I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intel quad cores are essentially 8 cores because of threading. I run an i7 2700k at 4.5, 25 degrees idle. Great cpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regentlord Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 It is a bug, maybe the new animation was intentional, but the animation keeps stacking on itself and eventually leads to horrible fps drops if you don't let the buffs fall off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helig Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) I think the new animation is excessive. Either flame effect around the character, lightning charge on their forearms, or black Dark Side glow on their fists. ONE thing. Not all of them together, at the same time.

Speaking of excessive...here are pics of what the Sentinel aura looks like http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/37/mfuh.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/809/01kw.jpg/ It is so annoying that i will pop Zen pretty much whenever just to get rid of the 30 stacks and the stupid light aura.

Marb Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) The issue isn't the effect itself, its that the effect just keeps spawning an infinite amount of times on top of each other, creating nuclear fusion reactions, and killing performance. With channel hatred you can stack the fx until your pc crashes. Edited July 1, 2013 by Marb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
