I have reached the point where my gear looks pretty cool as a Lich. But, then, I turn into a “reaper” (literally the physical incarnation of death), and it looks like I’m…a plastic Halloween decoration hanging jauntily from a store window. How incredibly underwhelming, especially after the Golem re-skin. The Reaper Form transformation looks soooo bad compared to the stuff that Druids get.
Also, when I cast in RF, it looks like I’m continuously throwing water over my head with both hands. In the case of Drain Life, I get NO cast animation. Instead, I float there and move a colored circle around the screen. “Reap” is just a slow dash with some color trails.
RF is fun to play, and although I think it could use some boosts, it is not fun to look at. This is supposed to be death’s power incarnated, a primal force exploding from the body of a corrupted mage. I feel as underwhelming as possible–like I belong in an after-Halloween sale bin.
Edit: To avoid sounding too salty, I’ll posit that the upgraded Wraith skin used for RF was probably intended to be a placeholder. I am just saying: give the Lich some love and attention. I’m more than just the sum of my minions, baby
