There is no way in game to reduce the buff effects. There are ways around it for single player, but not things you can use on Das due to being overrides (you shouldn't have overrides).

I would like to see the inclusion of those overrides myself, as a sorcerer I hate not being able to see my character under all those different spell effects.

Yeah, I don't particularly like them either; but if we tune them down it'll do so for everyone and unfortunately there is not consensus around this. Some people want them, others don't, so we've stuck with the default.

Would it be possible to put this towards a vote/poll? I use all extended buffs and I hate having to rest before I go into Cear for fear of sticking out like a sore thumb.

A vote would be useful, if just to get the general consensus.

I've no issue with them, I don't care if they're gone either however, though it helps to know what buffs enemy Magi are employing.

Magi.. not magni. But those too!

i would vote yes. it can make it difficult to see sometimes, and it can be distracting during roll play.

Go for it, create a new thread with a poll and a VERY clear title.

So the title "To Hamster Ball or not to Hamster Ball" isn't appropriate? :wink:

Well some of those spells actually I think help others out though. Isn't it similiar to the effect of a light spell? I know it is uber bright, are you guys just wanting the hampster ball effect to go away or just the radius of light effect to be toned down?
