Watched the UStream to see the Staff Fighting animations.
Honestly, I wish they had been less flashy.
They mentioned how real staff fighting tends to be very utilitarian and more basic, and I can understand them not wanting to go with that, because they didn't want the set to look boring.
But couldn't there have been a more Middle-Ground approach?
(Basically exactly the same complaint I have about Dual Pistols. It's so flashy as to be cheesy looking.)
IMO, of course.

So Avatea is now gone and all you care about is a video?
Damn, that's harsh...
I will miss you Avatea, you were the last of the EU Community persons and have always been my favourite. I thank you for your kindness and helpfulness and wish you all the best in China.
Here's to greener pastures. *offers bushel of carrots to Avatea as a parting gift*

I'm assuming there's no direct link to just the Staff Melee sample video still, though?
it has been on youtube for ages, just search city of heroes staff fighting.

hmm thats a shame, i like those animations, nothing too drastic i hope.
The tier 9 is a twirling breakdance of doom... and the PBAoE attack got a few more twirls.
The rest of the attacks seem to keep the same animations more or less.

Luckily an sgmate said, "you need to watch the ustream of it...shows the staff fighting set animations!"
I just watched the staff fighting animation video part of the ustream (cause, really that's all I want at the moment
The animations are....awesome....
I think the best part about StJ is the mob's reaction to the powers (at least certain ones; like Spinning Strike)...and I see that is there with that staff to the feet attack
Can't wait to buy this set!
