Weapons & Equip Spell tomes animation rework

[Tiggo]

Instead of just pointing the spell book to the cursor like it is right now, put an animation similar to npc's ability casting, like the dryad/clothier/wizard, the spell coming from the player's hand and the book open hovering in front of the player. Colors and effects will vary with the spell tome.

This will give a much cooler look to mage spell tomes.

This is how magic should work. Magic tomes look like glorified guns right now.

 

[Tanukimario]

YES! Definetly!
Im all for making Spell tomes better or even look better.
Extreme Support.

My only issue with this idea is that the golden shower would look very weird.

Also make the book hover around so we can still see it.

Otherwise, support.

At this point, everyone should stop calling every long ranged weapon a "glorified gun".

People say that?

No, but the fact that you called spell tomes "glorified guns" are wrong to me.

I don’t really care, and I said they look like it, they definitely don’t function like it.

With this new animation, some spell tomes will have slightly more windup on the start due to the chanting animation, to fix it, the first projectile of all tomes will deal slightly more dmg due to the windup, and the other projectiles will do the standard damage.

as a mage, I would love any change to the class now, whether it is visual or a few buffs here and there, so PLEASE somebody either have this added or make this a mod.
