I don't know if this is the right thread for this but I would like to see an alternate skill effect for Whirling Blades, such as an animation/effect that better illustrates the way the skill hits multiple targets or at least a different color.
While it doesn't necessarily fit the skill theme, an iaijutsu style blade lunge kind of animation would be really cool. Preferably in a warm color like red or orange to counterpart the green whirling blades animation.

The degen cold patches for the "Winterheart, Event 45: Arctic Boss Kill" race were nearly invisible on lighter tilesets and impossible to see if any smoke or piles of item tags, etc. were overlapping them.

I was under the effect of two shrines at the same time, and the icons overlapped above my head, it looked awful.

Could you PLEASE optimize the graphics for Icestorm to be less GPU intense? I absolutely love my Whispering Ice, but my friends with less powerful video cards are not thrilled to party with me because my Icestorms lag them. :(

Sire of Shards and perandus weapon MTX cause a ton of graphics lag. I have a gtx980 and 16 gig ram on system, and when using that combination the game acts like there are huge lag issues / spikes. I think it's cause it creates a super long trail of effect, Often times when the issue happens, the whole screen locks up, and then when it unfreezes the perandus effect is half a screen away and rushes to catch up to the staff again.

Quarts Infusion does not have a buff indicator(character does not appear transparent) when you have 3 Pacifism Gems(-3 to Frenzy charges, ie max frenzy charges at 0). You can still walk through enemies, but there is no icon or transparent character to indicate this, maybe add one or let the character appear transparent like when the buff is triggered on kill?

Art: Armor, Pets, & Skill effect Suggestions (Pic below)

I would love to see pets the same color as those mobs I killed, and a Supporter pack that allows you to turn your entire current armor set MTX to an 'ethereal' color, the exact same purplish color of those mobs. Also galaxy footprints the color of those mobs, a weapon effect, and spell effects like Contagion, Wither, and Essence drain that use that lighter purple color, I think it would look terrific.

I would like to see ebony reave (like demonic just black slashes) and black hole explosive arrow (rapidly expanding black hole instead of regular explosions)

The Ice Crash effects hurt my eyes.

As much as I like the skill I have been completely unable to play or even join a party with an ice crasher in it because of the effects.

The skill is so light and bright in contrast to poe's usual dark and gloomy areas. This combined with the way the skill has 3 stages creates a flashing type of effect between dark and very bright. the pure white pulses it seems to send out don't help things. After just 2 minutes of being around an ice crash build even in a fairly light area such as dried lake my eyes will start to hurt and after 5-10 minutes I will have a splitting headache.

If you could change the colour from pure white to a more gloomy blue and work on the pulses I think many more people would be able to play ice crash builds.
