Suggestion: Kinetic Blast Alternate Skill Effect

So I was just wondering if the devs might consider creating an alternate skill effect look for Kinetic Blast. Something similar to the ghostflame raging spirit effect only instead of the green glow effect a wispy/shadowy blace but still a skull.

Would compliment the necro build I'm enjoying wonderfully, and as there isn't a skill effect for it yet perhaps others would like it too!

*black not blace lol .... would have just edited the post but didn't see and edit function for it.

I'll see that and raise two more: gloom and ghostflame (there are already corresponding herald modifiers, if I recall correctly).

Oh I like that :)

This skill really needs some other looks for it. The explosions for it with my suggestion could even simply be made the shadowy color, or for your suggestion the ghostflame green look.

Oh! In case devs read this... add Power Siphon into that suggestion as well would you? (Would think this would be fairly easy to do as they both have extremely similar graphics as it is.)

PWEAZE! :P

Ever since they changed the hotkey art of Kinetic Blast from grey to blue it does bother me sometimes. Could do for making it blue by default.

Good idea, that; I'd also add barrage to the list. I would also point out that running a witch as PoE's version of Revy 'Two-Hands' is quite amusing - dual-wield wands; barrage as primary attack; power siphon as alt; kinetic blast on a totem; cherry with increased crit chance and power charge on crit, plus that passive which gives your damage a boost for each power charge you have...

wow really glad I created this thread now... I'd completely overlooked barrage could be used with wands. Trying it out now. If only we could 'cwc' those two into a wither channel with void damage support or even poison support eh?

Perhaps if the devs are reading this would consider an 'attack while channeling/awc' gem? I'm sure that has been suggested before but hey no reason effectively a noob couldn't make the suggestion eh? lol

If I recall correctly, the poison and void manipulation support can be applied to a herald. Multiple instances of poison do, in fact, stack. Barrage is a five-round burst (and kinetic blast is, in effect, a cluster grenade). And since 'Revy' is a witch (easy access to the wand-damage clusters), and you're going through shadow to ranger, assorted nodes that boost poison/chaos damage aren't that far out of the way...

Hrmmm... well looking at herald of ash with void on it and it doesn't highlight as if it applies but I'll check it out

oh scratch that I was trying added chaos damage support, void does highlight
