It's so pathetic it's almost funny.
That's the copy-paste crap you do when you first learn how to program. And then you delete it before anyone else can see it.
Or you're working for blizz and not giving a single fuck.
I wish they would just take the old ascendance skin textures seen here: Picture but reskin the new character models with the textures(is that the right word?) but on an Orc or Draenei or whatever model. Maybe add a thrall robe, make it feel more like an acceptance of the elements and not a forceful bending.
I just think it would still keep it simpler, but is still better than just redoing the SEF models, which feel more spirit-y than elemental-y
It's ok I guess, I like the current and somewhat unique ascendance form though. This just makes you see through and changes your color depending the spec.
