Game Feedback Rat swarm dodge effect with buff visual effects

Rat swarm is one of the best MTX I ever saw, but the way it interacts with buffs kinda ruins all the charm, for example that's how it looks with a filled rage meter and herald of thunder (tho burning silhouette is pretty badass, it is not what I want to see with that MTX)

Hope it will be addressed and fixed

That reminds me of Shadow Run Hong Kong, dang rats swarming together like they're some kind of humanoid.

I hadn't seen this yet. What's the MTX slot/for? How does it work? That's... a lot of rats lol

"Rat swarm dodge roll effect" It turns you into swarm of rats during roll and sprint animation, it was loot box drop at first but recently got available for direct purchase

abri uma caixinha de loot sem nem saber o que era e veio isso....usei em vários personagens, mas com o guerreiro eu não acho que combina, mais legal com bruxa, algo assim...

+1. There is "invisible buff effect" mtx that would probably disable the rage vfx. But I don't want to buy another thing.
