Default Hammer Attack Animations

Okay, now that Magehunter Smash is an unconditional knockdown (and a GREAT buff, I might add), can the animation for the skill get changed to an overhead smash like other unconditional KD's? Right now it's still a lateral swing animation, and looks out of place.

While you're at it, Crude Swing has an overhead Smash animation, when it should be a circular swing, like Whirlwind Attack. I guess Anet could just switch the arbitrary animations for Crude and Magehunter, and both problems would be solved in one swoop (pun intended )

Agreed, the Magehunter's Smash's animation is a big disappointment.

Hmm... I rather good point

Would be rather easy. They don't even have to create a new animation, just steal one from another skill like Crude Swing or something.

I take it the mods didn't appreciate me joking in a /signed post. :P

Anyway, yes, please change Magehunter's at least. First time I ran it I thought I hit the wrong button. First time I ran against it I wondered what knocked me down. Consistency is ftw, just change the character animation, leave the weapon FX alone.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they change the animation in an update a week ago?
