<div></div><p>We get the best looking cast affect in the game in my opinion with Taunt Stance. </p><p>Alot of our buff particle graphics could do for an upgrade though, some of them cast the same "red" speckles around you or you tap your weapon on the ground for 70 levels for the same buff line, exactly the same as all fighters. I'm sure they'll do some updating to set our animations apart eventually, especially with the Archtype changes and starting out at level 1 as your class.</p><p>As for actual fight animations, we have a straight kick, roundhouse kick... some of our dodge/parrie animations are pretty sweet, some of the punches could be differenciated a bit. And our charging stun looks nice. So yes we have alot of variance, just not as much as you'd think.</p>

<div>As long as you equip most cetsi and wraps you keep your kung fu fighting style look. If you equip the batons or other then your fighting style will look like a normal fighter.</div>
Ok thanks for the responses, basically: No, we don't get any "cool" swooping dragon style MA moves. Gotcha.<div></div>
From a real life standpoint, almost every martial arts animation is flawed in some way but I still say we are the most fun class in the game to watch by far.<div></div>
