Zushada.6108 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 _Noting the post by Gailie today, I did search first before posting but I don't see this anywhere._ This has been something that has frustrated me since launch and it is through no fault of the community as I have done this myself; I just try to hide behind a pillar or something to lessen the impact on others. When a player saves up a pile of Tomes of Knowledge and consumes them, the animation flashes on the screens of those in the area. I would like to request that this be a user specific animation as the repetitive bright flashing triggers migraines, and potentially seizures. To be honest, imo, any of the consume animations that produce similar effects to Tomes consumption should really only affect the individual users display and not impact the players around them. Yes I can move, but this does prove frustrating when someone walks up to a crafting station to use the bank and I am in the middle of crafting 200+ ingots. Just my thoughts, but I have been through a similar experience in my other game where one AOE used by one class had an impact on the entire area and the devs changed it to impact only the player and then eventually removed it all together. In that case it was a camera shake effect that left many other players complain it was nauseating. However, the bright flashing repeatedly for 80 levels can be just as nauseating for me so I would appreciate it if you would consider changing the setting on this animation. Cheers, Zushada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBs don't bother me tbh. I raid and fractal as well with no issues. It is the bright white flashing animation that continues repeatedly for 80 levels that bothers me. Most of the boss animations are much shorter and less repetitive. Thank you for the kindness and genuine concern. Have a great day, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrimm.5624 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 +10. Agree, there is no reason for this to flash to other players. Back in the day when a player auto-healing while in a WvW fight, maybe then as a tell to say your opponent has ranked up but outside of that.....no, its not needed any longer. Why not reduce the screen noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmirkDog.3160 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Seeing someone level up while playing normally is one thing (and sometimes you're like "hey good for them") but seeing it over and over while you're just trying to take inventory of your mats at the bank or something serves no one.

Endium.3167 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 They should just have it so that there's a "consume all" button. One animation to level 80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OriOri.8724 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Disabling that animation entirely in cities would be nice. Its not really relevant in those areas, and that is also where I would wager most people who mass level with tomes use the tomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
