Explorer Classes Need flashy skills too!

compared to most other classes outside of explorers, skill animations for a lot of explorer classes aren't nearly as flashy as others are, especially the warrior branch of explorers early on IMO. I feel that all explorer classes could use a bit of razzle dazzle, to compete with all these other classes.

    Unfortunately, their drab look matches their low power.
    Explorers are generally more of a pain to level up to 4th job than most other classes.

    Perhaps a revamp is in order? a long overdue one ;]

    As a fire / poison mage i hope that my skills would be less flashy... sometimes i turn off most of my supportive skills in bosses so i could even see something. Luckily i heard there's gonna be option in future to turn your skills invisible.

    I like them being less flashy, I hate all the flashyness in the game right now.

    all I'm saying is the explorer skills feel/look a bit dull in terms of skill animations, in comparison to the other classes. I'm not saying they need screen overkill animations but a bit of color or new animations would be nice :]

    what if the devs made a low/med/high setting in the options for skill animations? something more in dept then the quality slider we already have?

    We should be getting a new option in the near future that allows us to adjust the transparency of skills.

    F/P mages rejoice! You can finally tone down your obnoxiousness!

    well, this is information I didn't now about, thanks for sharing that :]

    but what about the other explorers? like warriors? IMO, warriors have the least satisfying skill animations out of all the explorers, they just don't SHOW the power visually. like the crusader skill, Panic? devs can do so much more to that skill to make it look more powerful.

    you know what? I agree, but I'm talking about the skill animations themselves, for the Explorers. the skill animations just don't seem flashy enough, players should feel like their skills LOOK as powerful as they ARE, and vise versa.
