I would like to see it be an option to disable armor enchantment animation from the character screen. I have a trans soulforged and I cannot see anything on my character but the purple "smoke" from the enchant. It certainly would be nice to see my transmuted/dyed armor.

While I can see this has some merit in PvP, it's IMHO not really necessary in PvE. Some enchant effects are straight ugly (yes, you too, Soulforged Pig-Pen-cloud). Though I have to admit, some were gracefully toned down - e.g. Vorpal's "broken neon sign"-flicker
On a side note I recall the original reasoning for not offering an option to disable was due to code and cost and that it was basically impossible with the current code. I have noticed that the mounted view is now free of enchantments being visible but it also does not show dye so perhaps they could look into that more and maybe find a way to incorporate one of the most requested things players have asked for.
@strumslinger could you investigate this and see if it is possible? If it's not, confirmation of that fact would be good to know so we can avoid this often repeated discussion.
If, however, it is possible it would be an amazing QoL improvement and probably lead to increased fashion related profits via the Zen store... Just saying!
With barkshield I look like a walking cactus.
So had to pick one for the looks, and if I already made a screenshot for another thread:
What really would be nice, is to be able to choose the visual 'level' up to the enchant rank, like in companions I can choose the skin up to the companions rank. So for example in lesser SF i can choose for it to look Lesser / off
And in Perfect I can choose: Perfect, greater, normal, lesser, off.
