New Holy Word: Sanctuary (video)

[Omnus]

Depending on where you cast it, you'll either see a small, sparkly circle, or a series of glowing symbols. Its probably not finalized at this early stage:

As much as the old animation looked like a void zone, the new one doesn't seem very clear where exactly to stand. Plus annoying sound.

[Mazi]

It looks cool, definitely needs to be bigger and brighter though.

[Vook]

On an off-topic note, how did you configure Power Auras to make the icon just flash for a second when the CD is up? I could never figure out how to do that.

That's an addon called Doom Cooldown Pulse

They'll tweak it some more I'm sure. I like where it is going, though.

Is the visual the only thing that is changed?
Just saw a thread about efflorence that it had its graphic's changed AND the spell itself.
Anyone?

[Dorfie]

I'd complain about this, but then again I'd never use it anyway.

I haven't heard a peep about any mechanic changes to either spell. To my knowledge, they are only changing the particles on both to make them less void-zone-y and obstructive.

I love it!

Assuming they get the glyphs to show up on flat surfaces, this is probably going to be my favorite spell. I will miss the aurora borealis, but yeah... I love the direction they're taking this one.

Ya, the graphic is obviously way too small compared to the actual radius of the effect.

Why change the graphic to a useless spell?

[Danner]

Why change the graphic to a useless spell?

It's not useless at all. You can use it to hide the visibility of dangerous aoe area attacks like void zones and swirls, making the spell an excellent way to kill your own raid. In my opinion, this fits the priest toolkit just perfectly; complementing abilities like life gripping people off cliffs, pushing body&soul on fellow raiders as they approach the BWD elevator, and levitating people on Nefarian to provoke an aggrobug oneshotting 2-3 random meleers just for the heck of it.

Oh, and I hear it it also heals people who stands in it, though I need confirmation on this...

Awww, no more blinding people with it's brightness.

Agreed, blind raiders are bad, also might be able to see the odd lightwell here and there in them now

Ya the center was always too bright for the Lightwell it seemed.
