<p>As the headline stats , i am personaly very pleased with the end result of the Epics in whole (i am sure some would like a little change here and there , but i am pretty sure most will agree in total its a welcome addition to item detail in game)</p><p>That said - i would like to suggest a tweak to <b>Guardian Epic</b> which is to my opionion and i am sure most will agree can use a bit of tweaking compared to the other weapons.</p><p>It simply lack animation. </p><p>Most of the weapons have moving / rotating / glowing parts to then , which give them that uniqe edge tha define them over other weapons in game and make them look uniqe and special. some more then other but in all , the epics have animation to them.</p><p>The <b>Guardian Epic</b> is "still". but thats not exactly currect. and i will explaine.</p><p>I have looked at it from every angle for about 5 min then i have noticed it does do somthing. when its not drawn and sita on the belt - the handle "dragon like wings" are folded , and there arent any blades on the side of the main blade. when its drawn u see that the "wings" are wide open and 2 extra blades on the side which alide to the upper end of the blade. drawing and sithing and back and forth , u can actually notice it animated - the wings spread open and the bladed slide from the handle to the tip of the blade from the side.</p><p><u>Now Dev's my suggestion :</u></p><p>Since the animation is already there , i suggest make it constant and not only happen when the blade is firstly drawn. i do not know the technical programing language but to put it simple the commaned should be simple like that :</p><p><b>At the moment its probebly somthing like that :</b></p><p>/draw weapon</p><p>/open handle wings</p><p>/slide side blades</p><p><b>My suggestion is to add these commands :</b></p><p>/draw weapon</p><p>/open handle wings -close handle wings -open handle wings (act act... in a loop command)</p><p>/open side blades -close side blades -open slide blades (act act... in a loop command)</p><p>The end result will be a more lively weapon and a fully animated one like the rest of the rotating animated epics</p><p>when its drawn out - u will see the handle wings keep open and close open and close and the blades on the sides move up and down and back and forth.</p><p>all it needs from Dev's is to add that "loop" command in the end of the corrant programing, no addition work, and the weapon will be constantly animated.</p><p>nother option is just to give it some colourED glow or particle effect ?</p><p>cheers for reading it</p><p>hope it make since.</p>
