Oh no, I know it would be far more work than adding a toggle, but it would be less work than perhaps adding a new form, or adding any visual notification (like shadows, or some form of aura). Typically removal of something in games like this is easier than creating and implementing a new idea. It would be removing the form, and the skill, while still keeping the effect.



Honestly, that's probably one of the worst issues with this subject; lack of Developer communication. They don't seem to be giving input or any form of feedback to us in return for our own.

Right. We haven't had any feedback since the Developer Q & A, which is kind of stinging considering we're doing as they asked and we don't know that they're paying attention.

I wouldn't add a spoiler for it.

The spoiler was due to the large font size. XD

I don't like the Shadow Form. Looks really ugly and everyone looks the same. Same thing with the Beast Master.

Beastmasters all look the same, but at least its not ugly. The grizzly tank form looks good anyway, the dps bear is a little bland, and I think its kinda stupid to have 2 bear forms, but the dps bear also isn't ugly, and the tiger form looks alright too, even though I don't think a tiger fits that well for a form that moves fast, but doesn't do any damage. The main point though is that beastmasters forms aren't horrendously ugly like the current shadow form with its stupid unicorn/dog head.

My vote is to Mondaiji's bio lab appearance with the option of toggling it on or off.

(And since you were mentioning beast master as well, I think they should have a toggle too :/ it's a shame not to be able to see that awesome spear in action /sigh)

You forgot to put it in Korean. The developers can't read English.

[Varunax]

Just put the topic title as gangnam style assassin and I'm sure it would catch their attention.

Not until you shove it into the developers' faces.

Dark aura with glowing eyes, Like Pesona 4 shadow
Reason: Because the Assassin will look like being possessed like the original idea of Shadow Form

Added my Profile Picture character in shadow version so you can compare them

I don't play assassin just because how Shadow Form currently looks

Something I did real quick. I think this would be pretty bad arse. Pretty much just the assassin covered around a black shadow aura.

[Kazza2003]

Either no form, just the buffs, a shadow/ghostly appearance or something like that. But not his "crap".

[Helios0]

took a stab at making shadow form look like the Bio lab aura from Ro2

figured assassins could look like they're in that state when they go into shadow fiend form and whenever they activate a cooldown or big ability they turn into the current shadow fiend form for like 5 seconds

[Rhint]

Aw man, but that washes out all of the colors in the armor and character.

Keep the aura, ditch the colors, but awesome work!

+ lower the intensity of the aura, that's a little bit too much ^^ But that's how it should more or less look like :3

If no type of CM or whatever responds I forward we turn into angry mob form, +1 for Rhint or Mondaiji as leader.

[toskene]

I'm for no form at all or a slight shadowy aura.

To the video, good job. However, I would not like to have my character turn into the wolf unicorn EVER. Having to wait for the animation to turn into that damn thing upon a combo would cause delay and lower dps!

[Rhint]

Even in the trailer they have assassin shown as an assassin, not as a shadow were wolf unicorn - and based on its gear, I'd a level 35 assassin minimum, so it'd have shadow were wolf unicorn by then.

[Reflection]

Shadow aura could be really good, this unicorn-dog from the hell is so ugly.. or a buff but pls change this ...

[Helios0]

took a second stab at the aura

removed the blue hue and instead just added a slight darkening mask

also i took the old aura from RO1 from the Bio Lab Monsters and added it instead of the blue streaks
messed up tho and forgot to turn them off after the transformation but w/e



the concept is that when you activate shadow form you are in the smoky dark streaky form. And when you activate a cooldown you transform into the shadow fiend for the duration of the cooldown or for 5-10 seconds

This is the most brilliant idea I've seen yet. Let sin's maintain their normal physical appearance, but give them a 'possession' sort of look -- you know when they're in shadow form from glowing/smoky/etc. eyes.
