I miss the old Mystic bright red curse coloring. It feels good to land. What do you feel?

I feel that It’s also harder to see a cursed enemy. Not as fast as it changing color to KETCHUP RED.
I don’t use the curse indicator personally, as my laptop is not a great gaming computer and I like to minimize the load on it, but if I did use curse indicator, I would prefer the old indicator. I’ve seen videos with both, and the old is better imo.
I think the reason why the changed it from “ketchup” to “aura” was because some players complained it was hard to distinguish enemies when every cursed enemy had the same color.
The most notable example I can think of is shatters; the blue and red mages have similar sprites and becomes hard to differentiate when they’re red.
on the other hand using an example from the very same dungeon, stasised enemies are difficult to distinguish from other unstasised enemies if they’re all gray. a stasised stone paladin looks like a normal one, and normal ones can just sit there and do nothing for a few seconds so you can’t use that to tell either. if the enemy gets plastered in red then stasis makes them grayscale + darker so you can still tell the difference.
I guess, I mean I’m not much of a mystic player to begin with, I was just trying to recall the reason they changed it in the first place. And you’re definitely right I’ve died many a times to the exact example you brought up xD
The old one was horrible. It makes many enemies indistinguishable from each other, many others harder to recognise and so respond to in a timely manner. The way it’s done now, as an icon is far better and matches other status effects.
Maybe they could look at this again when Unity comes out, and look at how to update all the indicators which are hard to spot especially when many are active. E.g. they could add animated icons to replace the static ones, as an option.
Could someone post a picture of the current one. Don’t have a mystic and haven’t seen yet. Didn’t know it changed
It’s an icon, the Curse one listed here:

Not too hard to spot as enemies normally have very few status icons, mostly the ones from players’ abilities. The old effect which made their sprite dark red was removed.
they are talking about an aura, the curse status icon has always been there, that’s not anything new
Dude it’s been 10 minutes
just realized it looks like the cube made it to legends xd
Ok that’s just toxic…
wha, didnt even notice. i dont really care since i dont play mystic much these days and yeah… i have it turned off
college, life, yada yadaa, though mostly because I found other MMOs (Ragnarok Online Classic, my childhood). You never truly leave RotMG tho
Edit> in general: A suggestion would be to have the curse indicator be an option:
a. None (just icon)
b. Classic (my ketchuppp)
c. Modern (legendary enemy aura).
The day they removed the effect, I made dis
