A new way to for us to customize our characters (Animation Choices)

From PhantomX (in game)

I've been playing the game for a long time and come to hate how some powers are "used" at least animations. For example, I have a heavy set character who uses Typhoon and the animation seems kinda off for the character and another that uses Fireball, but I want the animation of Gust. What I'd like to see is that in addition to Head, Chest, Hand, fist choices is the different animations associated with it.

Let me give an Example: The power Fireball
The different animations that you can use
Gust
Force Blast
Summon Shadows Animation with the fireball above the head
(just to name a few, there tons that can be used)

Of course some power will be limited for example the power Fissure
You can use the animation from:
Brimstone (Heavy Weapons)
Fault Line
Tremor
Force Geyser

I do not believe this is too difficult to do and gives a new venue of unlockables: Anime Unlocks. that can be sold and/or added to lockboxes
Example of this is for the Power: Concentration (or any forms to be honest)
the unlock is called Equipment Check
as you charge Concentration you pull out you rifle use the firing mechanism look down the sights and put in a magazine

Another Option tho more than likely more difficult is a two stage choice, One of Charging and the other of Execute.
For example for this I'm going to use Fissure
For Charging------------------------> to execute
The Manipulator Form charge-----> Resurgeance Execute
Brimstone Charge----------> Earth Splitter Excute
Summon Healbot/Muni bot (Keypad Press)--------> Fault Line

You can do this with something like Fireball
Summon Healbot/Muni bot (Keypad Press)--------> Double Palm (Force Cascade)
(You can use Emotes as well) Dance Snake-------> Finger Snap (Force Geyser)
Ego Blast ----------------> One Handed Palm (the stance from Psi Lash) not sure what else uses off the top of my head

This can also apply to tap powers as well, but mainly the same swap of the ani. Another to add is a switch or mirror side. This swaps the ani from left to right. Example I make a toon with Ice and Fire, his left side is fire and the right is Ice. Using this I can make sure fire comes from the left and Ice from the right

This uses alot of the resources in the game already and add another venue for to use. I hope you like and use this Please contact me if you have any questions, I'll try to keep up with this thread as best as I can

Everything of those New Powers is needed to be done thrice x Advantages.
So, not that difficult.
Really.

well, there is no change to the Power per say, just the animation of using it, more or less it is all cosmetic
