    The effects are culturally centered. I understand that you feel the Samurai are getting the crap end of the stick, but traditionally, the Japanese culture has always been shrouded in beauty. You have the blossom fall of the cherry blossom trees, and jade was a precious material across much of the Eastern world. What the developers are doing is taking culturally relevant materials and converting them into visual effects for each of the factions. Compared to knights and vikings, the samurai were shrouded in beauty and a sense of peace/oneness with the world around them.

    Why don't you make him full black and give him the smoke effect. Then you are what you try to cosplay: NOOB (sorry, I had to

    Always liked the petals. They're not the most intimidating thing, sure, but imo it's a cooler effect than the others.

    I would totally put them on my Warden if I could.
