Alec_Fortescue Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Yo! Since Sages (lol, great to play a class when one of the top 3 concerns is your appearance) asked about alternate animations for some abilities. Message was passed on to the team. Now boys. What are your ideas? Which animations would you like to see changed, probably via items like Kick the Huttball! Myself? I play Jug and Guardian. I absolutely HATE the jumping and tumbling in the air involved in Blasma Brand, Overhead Slash / Impale. I'd love to get more "grounded" animations with some violent lightsaber attacks! Overhead slash from lunge position, instead of jumping would be interesting. I'd love the animation for impale being the one Jaesa / Kira uses with one of her abilities (works with double and single lightsaber). Force Scream - sure has to be a scream but i'd love to be accompanied by some violent-sounding ligthsaber strike! Blade Storm perhaps 3 fast consecutive lightsaber strikes? Master Strike / Ravage. This would be amazing! Remember katas from Jedi Knight series? Well, now you get the idea Imo we should get items with buffs (like huttball kick) that persists thru death and lasts for like 99 hours (item reusable, of course!) and can be just easily removed with right click.

wiseassguy Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I know I wish that sents and marauders looked a bit more acrobatic, especially since they have ataru capabilities. Maybe a couple more strikes with flips and what not. Would be very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uvirith Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I would love my Shadow to at least jump a little in some of his attacks. I mean Saberstaff is supposed to be the most acrobatic lightsaberform yet Shadows/Sins just stand around flailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 It's funny! The class I'd prefer to be more 'stationary' and steadfast-like is actually the most acrobatic one ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitalityPrime Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) I once made a suggestion along these lines...but for different alternate animations. I was thinking of two powers that would be great for a knight and a warrior. However, instead of adding new powers...why not add new "animation skins" to existing powers. These "animation skins"...if you choose to use them...would change the animation only of said powers: Knight: Force Burst (would change the animation (and icon preferably) of Blade Storm) http://www.torhead.com/ability/1S8Y0B8/force-burst Warrior: Shock (would change the animation (and icon preferably) of Force Scream) http://www.torhead.com/ability/f3D45Gn/shock Edited July 14, 2014 by VitalityPrime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altheran Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Force Scream - sure has to be a scream but i'd love to be accompanied by some violent-sounding ligthsaber strike! Blade Storm perhaps 3 fast consecutive lightsaber strikes? Range... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitalityPrime Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I would love a new animation for Overhead Slash...that static summersault just looks very cheesy to me...it's too stiff...which is ironic. It's one of the main things that keep me from going Vigilance on my Guardian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
