Post aura rage here. I will lock any other aura thread I see.

I would guess these are better for parties but I liked the looks of the old ones better and I almost never play in a group. Having the option to enable the old style would be awesome.

the new aura effect doesn't look like auras at all. it looks like a character selection effect. it really looks crappy and pain in the eyes.

Vitality - I kinda like it, definitely an upgrade.
Haste - Yes, maybe change the monster version too.
Determination - This one needed the change most, and now it's nice, in line with the other auras.
Clarity - Very nice, I like it a lot. Sometimes it doesn't look that great with certain auras (Anger for example) but with Discipline it is OK.
Anger, Hatred, Wrath - Yes. Finally it doesn't look so ugly when you run all of them.
Purity - Not in line with others. I expected some cleaner version of the old one but what we got is kind of bad.

Now aura stacking looks fine, which is great. (But it is too powerful and I hope we get some change about it eventually. Yes, yes, not about art so w/e.)

Why after any graphic change there is always so many people asking for options? Give it a week guys, we got used to bigger changes and from today's perspective they make a lot of sense. Not saying everyone will like the auras in a week. Hard to believe I would get used to the Purity aura. Heh. We'll see.

I honestly prefer the austerity of the new ones and was never particularly fond of the old 7-aura super saiyan chic. But for those who do I don't see why they shouldn't have access to it in the UI.

Haven't seen all the auras yet, but I do believe I know of a solution. The designs are actually much more intricate (from the ones I've seen). Problem is, we can't actually see them.

Double the size of the auras. If this is = to how large the monsters auras are, bring it down a little bit. But I think doubling the size would allow us to actually see the detail.

Good point; once I zoomed in I could see the intricacy, but the effect is largely lost at normal play view. Hopefully some tweaking is in store for a future patch.

These look very lazily designed to me.

I suggesting simply making the old auras smaller and more transparent. That would pretty much solve all the performance issues.

Double stacked auras was lagging me more than I had thought...
In fact I had brushed off the lag as standard.... new aura graphics
reduced lag substantially for me on docks specifically (most likely
elsewhere as well)

too bad they had to change graphics to reduce lag but good call
for sure, old graphics looked good but... lag? no ty.
