Option To Disable Elemental Visual Effects On Melee Please.

[sambarpowder]

I think we should have an option to disable melee weapon fx. And I agree, the charge disintegration thing is bs. Because of it, playing as Nekros effectively gimps your melee unless you want to play without desecrate, in which case you might as well play another frame.

+1 Option to disable elemental visuals on melee. 
+1 to "elemental weapon trails."

Does channeling really truly positively beyond doubt remove the ability to desecrate enemies? Or am I the only one who has been able to desecrate them, and has actually seen their bodies pop back into existence if they drop anything? I've not had any problems with desecrating channel-disintegrated corpses. However... I have to point out that after maybe 10 seconds being able to cut people in half and watch their corpses fall to the ground is way more satisfying than watching them float away into semi-coherent dust.

I believe Nekros can still Desecrate disintegrated foes. I've done Nova co ops before and I know he can do it so this isn't an issue. Melee effects don't look as dazzling as I'd like. I want more sparks. I want more awesome.

+1 This.

You can desecrate disintegrated corpses.... As Nekros is my most played frame I would know.

 

As for the elemental effects I guess they could be toggleable, but for some people they like seeing their lightning sword.

Toggle on elemental effects? Yes please <3

[Noogums]

Merged another thread in.

[Kitsumiya]

Needs more attention. I really really want to be able to turn off elemental visual effects.

[Cynick]

Agreed, the effects need to go. The melee weapons look so much sleeker without them - a toggle would be the best for both parties though.

I support this thread again, honestly guys we don't want an aura filling all our customizations everytime we put some elemental mods on our rarely used melee weapons. If I stay one hour in some survival, the only thing I see is that overwelming aura around me, I don't want to be green !!!!

 

I'm at the point where I have to only put physical enhancement on my melee to don't have to see these aura...

[HolidayPi3]

I'd be really glad to see if this request could make it onto a dev stream at some point

[Kitsumiya]

This thread needs more attention if we want the Devs to look at it.

[Noogums]

The Devs are actually looking at it already. This and some other threads about this topic were recently forwarded to Steve to get looked at so he can judge if they fall under his vision of what the game looks like. We just have to be patient, now.

[HolidayPi3]

Excellent news. Thanks for the update & communication Noogums :)

[Zkorp]

good news indeed !

I really hope he'll understand that actually you can't decide of the colours you wear because melee "taint" anything around...

[Cynick]

Thanks for keeping us updated, always good to hear that feedback is indeed being looked at.

I'd love to see an option for turning on/off visibility of elemental damage effects being applied to a weapon. Some elemental animations just clash aesthetically with my warframe designs, while others compliment them. I'd rather not avoid applying a particular type of elemental damage to my weapon because I think the animations look funny. Adding an option for elemental effect visibility to the weapon appearance UI under the default colors option would be perfect.

I'll cast my vote for this. I don't know about you all, but I prefer not looking like a giant green radioactive snowman.
