It might have been brought up before ( i did search forums before posting, nothing came up) but i really dont like the tideborn tf, we all look the same!
I love my class and race, its just that the tide form is the only downfall(apart from the defence and swimming speed boost, i like that)
my suggestion:

-keep face and skintone the same in tideform
-keep upper body shape in tideform
- custumisation of tail colour when making character?

anybody else had these thoughts?

    I have a tideborn alt, i also hate it how your character loses its Uniqueness when it goes into mermaid mode.
    Nice idea on the option of tail colour, maybe jsut the players face,hair, and skin should stay the same when you turn into a mermaid/man
    but with the option of the tail colour, it could make it more laggy

    Thats a very nice idea you have, im a sin, and have been playiong for some time, and I just dont like how the tide form looks(and yes, the defence and speedboost is nice too :3) I agree with everyone here that we should keep our characters face/body/skintone the same when going into tideform, maybe the meditation could be toned down a bit too as i find that very laggy.
    say that the character could sit down in a orb like evryone else, but keep the fishes and sound effects that the meditation makes.

    O great, another thing to add to the list of things we'll see another thread of each week: tideform.

    I'll just put it right under matching true forms for barbs and veno's, under the 'not going to happen anyway' sign

    Thanks for posting this, I was about to do it myself : ) I aprove this message 100% XD
    A simple slip, a single mistake, one uncontrolled thought, or the slightest sound, and you fail.

    However, if you move in silence, know your powers and weaknesses, be prapared for anything, always know your surroundings, never cast a shadow, know how to wait yet be ready to jump when the time is right.

    You may survive, to be a master of swift death, and a chief of all that is unseen. Never let your pride be stronger than your brain, nor let your anger be your drive, or you will fail. And most importantly remember this, a good assassin is not the one who is well known, or credited with their doings. It is the one who is unknown, and never credited for either right or wrong.

    Like the idea- was disappointed when I saw the tidal form, but I wasn't surprised, as barbs and venos are pretty much the same in their transformations. I'd rather customization in this area too, but not before bugs and glitches are addressed. b:bye
