Then balance gona get some animation? We just using dots, the hamehame(solar) and lunar while rising hands in air, starsurge coming outa nowhere, starfall lame.
What about other destro lock animations ? I remember when i was using green fire, not all fire spells were updated. Havoc spell still being orange fire. Imp firebolt spell animation not updated, its still old. Cataclysm need visual update. Soul fire looks like dog #$%^.Channel demonfire needs to be updated too. Mortal coil, unending resolve, shadowfury. Conflagrate is too similiar to immolate.
it it really necessary to use flush toilet then casting?
Having played WoW for an eternity now with animations older than dirt; this is amazing. The animations my Demo lock have now are one of the big reasons I have continues playing it to this day so it's great to hear that more spells are getting their animations updated. Whoever is doing this work at blizzard deserves a raise for attention to detail and caring about the little things that can make a class immersive to play.
I hope they fix the druid bear animations (both legions bears and werebears are bugged). Already did so many bug reports, sigh...
this is a terrible decision they give warlock a crossover between mage frost instant cast animation and shaman castings animation ? where is the creativity ? where is the immersion ? im disapointed , this is just disrespectfull
Not new, Lava-Burst allready looked that way, as did Ice Lance.
This is NOT the Lava Burst animation.It's ALSO NOT the Druid cast.There are some currently unused casts under the "Loc" category, and the UA/CB/DB actually uses the "new" LocSpellPreCastBoth and LocSpellCastBothFront animations. I say new because they aren't used by any other class, and it's dead obvious they're intended for Warlocks.Now, what's immensely frustrating is that there is an idlestance in the files for Warlocks (LocReadySpellCast), and an unused special summoning animation (LocSummon).Coupled with an actual repeat of Ice Lance's animation for DoTs and the Mage stance, it's mindboggling to me that they wouldn't simply push the whole overhaul package rather than dripfeed updates.Ya'll know what happens when they try bugfixing and changing one thing at a time - when the new stuff gets added, the then-older additions break.But what can you do.
The latter has been in game since beta. It's specifically the Warlock casting animation for specific spells. The one for Shaman may seem the same, but there's a slight variation to how the cast is done (the Shaman cast has both arms raising up at once - not one after the other).I've made a comment previously as to why the site never showcased the Warlock animations when they did it for the other casters.
