    Arrow Feeblemind Animation

    Nothing wrong with the spell, just the animation.

    When you cast it and it's a success it will show the little animation over their head, then the animation goes away and you can't tell if they're still feebleminded or not unless you examine them to see it or you see that they saved.

    Curse, Fear, Dance, Hypnotism, ect.. they all get a permanent animation above their heads. Can we change Feeblemind to work this way too please? I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to alter. Thank you.

    Here I was ready to blast you because I expected you to suggest something like "When feebleminded characters should constantly utter "Der! Der Der!" in party chat, and repeatedly thump their chest with one arm".

    Unfortunately for me, your suggestion, though missworded (you want an icon above the head, not an animation), makes sense.

    Yeah so I figure.. get people to sign this (plz) and then I'll be happier in the next update when I run around Feebleminding things. I find it enjoyable and thus making the game more fun. (bs excuse)

    But yeah the other spells work that way why not this one? Somebody racist to Feeblemind?

    Personally I'd remove the visual indicators from the other spells instead.

    How come? Better a cleric see that someone is cursed than seeking another indicator of them calling it out.

    Better you have a disco ball over your head when you prance in place, so you don't look like a weirdo.

    Better to have a Feeblemind icon over your head, so people don't think you suck for not fighting back.

    Default Feeblemind

    While I see the benefit in having an icon for feeblemind instead of just a short animation personally I would rather have them concentrate on other things like fixing lag and new content.

    this comes up a lot. "i would rather they fix my issue than other issues" Lag is an "issue" that cannot be fixed. if you have a millisecond drop in your internet you get lag. if you join a server with one too many people you get lag. if your computer loads one thing too many you get lag. there are a million ways to get lag. and anyone who says they have played an mmo with no lag is a liar pure and simple.

    and of course they have teams working on fixing new content, its new of course its buggy. but there are also people just working on the little things. geometry problems missing icons and all those things that arent quite right.

    these are the what the suggestions are about rather than the whole forum dedicated to bugs and LAG

    P.S, this was not a personal attack on you mordechai its just the last 6 suggestions i've looked at this has been the reply

    It's called communication. Groups should do it, or be penalized for not doing it.

    However, it does get confusing when several people are trying to say the same thing at the same time. Of course, then again, it is hard to see the icon over someone's head when there are a million other things going on or they are hidden by a large mob (sullo, harry, etc.) This is why it is nice to have both, then people can either see it or hear you tell them and are not limited to just one option.
