I'm still befuddled that is a special emote. Like we've seen special emotes that don't include any new character animation before (Dragon Priestess, Med-Tec, etc.) but this is just ridiculous. Edit: Animations as in the character models moving in a specific way during the special emote.
But even with that emote on, the skin doesn't live up to the artwork, she just looks so cartoony with that outfit and the afro making her head look so big.
"dont include any new character animation" is incorrect - all of those skins required large amounts of animation work across the entire animation set.
Adding these extra wings to Yemoja full-time would also require her entire animation set to be adjusted to accommodate them and make sure they move naturally.
The team did a lot of updating to this skin in PTS to get it in the best possible state we could based on player feedback - but doing that much animation this late after the release would cause massive problems in our scheduled plans, so id say its extremely unlikely.
By the statement about character animations I was only referring to the characters during the special emotes. I realize there is animation work for Dragon Priestess' dragon and Med-Tec's bot, though the center character doesn't do anything new during them. But in the case of Angelic Archon it only looks like added effects like those used in her abilities and not model animations like, say, Dreadful Doll has.
I won't pretend I know everything about it though, as I said I'd have only liked her model to be different, but I know it's not possible at this point.
On the topic of ambient effects though, like those for Yemoja, I'd like to ask if the bug with Eternal Tormentor Zeus is known and if it will be fixed in the near future? The rune ring behind him is missing most of the time.
can you be more specific or show any video/images of this zeus bug?
