New animation for CW Orbs - an opinion

I like what the devs tried to do, but sadly it fails miserably when using many of the more unusual shaped appearance items (IE: The Book and The Skull from Tower District CTA). Can you please allow those of us who don't want our appearance changed weapons looking stupid as they toss and roll about for their idle animation to turn the new animation off and make it the way it use to be? It really ruins the effect of having certain appearance changed weapons.

    I agree. My CW just got the skull skin, but having it turning all over is not the effect I was after. I don't want to re-skin, but may have to.

    I guess this would look good with a regular spherical orb, but anything with a sense of up and down is a no go for me now.

    I do have to say that it's a massive improvement imo for at least the standard kind of orbs. Not seen what a skull would look like, but I can understand your issue with it :D

    I'm going to have to disagree. I saw a skull, a tome, and my own orb of the champion mage on the preview server and the only one the spinning looks out of place on is the tome, as far as I'm concerned. But, then, I never liked the idea of flying tomes in the first place, so on the whole I love the change.

    What could have cool was to have Ioun Stone orbiting around my Orb instead of my head.

    ...or at least a little higher and not whipping directly across my line of sight in front of my eyes.

    It plays directly into their profit-making, but if you get a costume of some kind you don't have to see your orb at all unless you're in combat.

    I really would love to see a way to turn the spin on or off, like you can hide certain pieces of armor, then EVERYONE could be happy.

    Plus I worked hard to get the look I wanted on my toon, I don't want it all to go to waste and just end up wearing a vanity costume.
