New BB animation

I've been thinking of putting this up for some days now but never got the time, so here we go.

It's about the BB animation for female clerics the end part where we should have the final version of the BB is wrong. I looked in the china preview videos and the yin/yang part of the BB should be on top of the female cler not under, creating a dome like area. I don't mined leaving it under BUT please do something about the character position because it doesn't make ANY sense. The arm that she holds up has no weapon since the one in witch she hold the wep is down; the "superman position" as I call it since it looks like she's superman flying is weird so either change the arm that she puts up as the weapon arm or change the position to be like the male BB witch makes sense. b:bye

Hope a dev reads this and fix it soon, as much as a I like the new BB that bugs me b:thanks

Happy Christmas b:pleased

    It is an error, have you looked closely at the videos about the new skills before they were released to us? guess not if you accept it the way it is now. Male animation is done right, female one like i said some elements were done wrong. idk what happened but I want the skill to look like it does on the other pw versions -.-"

    I'm fine with how the new BB looks. The thing that irks me more is how accurate that "range" is. I already managed to be in it, yet visually out of it.

    I like it better our way, with the female cleric floating effortlessly on the top of the yin-yang thingy.

    Male version makes it look like BB is such a hard work, lol.

    Well if the animation isn't done right I wouldn't be surprised if that limit is not actually the limit. Then again the place where things are on your monitor can be different on someone else, that's 1 thing I learned in this past 4-5 years of pw.
    It irks me how unfinished it looks at end animation since I was expecting to be exactly like the one in the video -.- the other skills are done right just female BB got messed up in the process.

    Like I said idm the ying/yang being under the female cler but at least do something about the position. in the original new BB for female clers the weapon was up in the air just like the old BB style and on top yin/yang; so if all are ok with the yin/yang being under the cler atleast make the wep be over the cler not that silly superman pose.. why is that empty hand up in the air for? reach for the sky? prepare to fly? at least make it the arm with the wep not the empty one -.- or make it connect with the animation overall.

    You aren't the only one, don't worry. I hate the new BB also. Female clerics look stupid in it.

    I want my bubble back!

    At least what`s good about it, you can actually see the range of its effect.

    Are people really complaining about trivial little details like how the new skills looks?


    At least your new BB has a sound effect, unlike the skill Tiger Leap, which is bugged and doesn't have a sound effect...

    Yes I do complain for it like you complain about sound effect witch I have on mute and don't care about. so your point is?
    You criticize us for wanting something to look how it's supposed to visually like you want it to sound like supposed to witch from a way of viewing is exactly the same thing. Isn't the quality section for problem of all kind as long as they are fair? Sure it's trivial but it's there so why not fix it along with other things they messed up this patch?

    true it's useful but that limit is so-so atm since some say even if they are on that drawn line they can still be out of BB. But at least now people can kinda know where to stand and not have to be told "you're out of BB"

    I thought that at first, which was one of the reasons why I got it. But now people are reporting that they are out of BB while being within the circle so I'm wondering if it shows up differently on other screens (or just doesn't work as intended), and in that case the animation is much less useful. Worse actually, since people will think they are safe within the circle and not bother to watch their buff bar like you had to with the original BB.

    I'm sorry. I tried to begin reading your complaint, but due to your inability to type anything comprehensible I was unable to even put this through a translator.

    Please, for the love of all that is perfect, correct your madness to at least show some minor education.~b:sad

    Are you talking about my post? If so, I can explain in another way, no problem ( and yes I had some typos and punctuation problems that I noticed but you are the only one who can't understand what I typed ), but next time please don't be so rude, I never did anything to you to be mean to me, did I?

    Anyway here we go: The problem about the new BB for females ( animation point of view ) is that the final form of the BB is incorrect. The yin/yang disk that appears under the cler should be places above her and from that disk, a dome should be formed, kinda like a half blue bubble that surrounds everyone not just the cler. The limitation of the dome's wall is the circle on the floor.

    Did you understand me now? If even now you can't, no problem I'll try again. That's why we are humans, to find ways to communicate. b:pleased

    I'm not sure where you ever saw it the way you described it, but in this video from a PWCN server, around the 2 minute mark you can clearly see the new BB animation used by a female cleric.

    The yin yang thing is floating beneath her and the dome like thing you descibe is absent.

    Maybe you are talking about a beta build where the animation was first shown?
    Or:
    I'm guessing you mean the thing shown in this video around the 2:13 mark. Which is the upgraded red bubble skill, not BB. Which indeed creates a dome like looking thing.
    Soon™
    Well, maybe later, semi-retired.

    Maybe they changed the animation after it was released and it looks like PWCN has the same animation as we do. In that case there is no need to "fix" anything since it appears that it works as intended.

    A lot of things we're shown in previews before the actual expansion will sometimes be changed. Remember how we never received the Faction Base wars or how the Untamed never got the skill they were supposed to get along with the new form.

    As far as the range is concerned, player position may vary among clients depending on the connection and what not so it's very likely the Cleric BBing was in a different position on someone's client while not being actually there. As far as I've seen the range works fine more or less.

    If you've decided to play the game with your sound effects muted, then that's your own friggin problem, and has nothing to do with what I said. b:bye

    What I was saying is that your skill is working properly, so complaining that the new animation is supposedly wrong or because you don't like it's new look, is just plain pathetic, as that is not even a issue to begin with.

    Also, to quote on v4liace:

    At second video look again at 2.19 mark and see the female cler is under the yin/yang and has the G16 word above her head.

    Maybe they changed the animation like Desdi said idk. About your first video the quality is to poor to even understand what it's going on o.o

    It's a female cleric yes, but the animation used is that of a male cleric.
    The same toon you see that clip, look from 2:19 to 2:23

    At 2:19, it's not on top of her, it's because of the angle of the camera that it can look deceiving.

    At 2:22-2:30 you see the side view. It's not on top of her.
    It shows the animation that the male cleric uses with the new BB.
    But for some reason they used a female one to show it off...

    They just changed stuff around before releasing it.
