Summoning the actual squig

[Mo0rbid]

I belive that in a movie I once saw a herder summoning a Squig. When the squig was summoned a big cloud of smoke appeared covering the whole screen.'

Now for my question. Is that smoke the effect from summoning the Squig? It seemed weird with so much smoke. I know most of you probably wont be able to answer this so I come with a second question: What effect would you like to see while summoning forth your squig?

(the movie was with a squig herder in gates of ekrund)

Hmm i dunno if it was actualy summonning or that the goblin climed in the mouth of the squig cous it looked like the goblin was the moving the squig without seeing any gobo

I don't believe the massive smoke and the summoning were connected. I've seen a PvP video with a squid herder in it that summoned without smoke covering the whole screen, I can't remember exactly what the animation looked like, but it didn't cloud the screen.

I do remember smoke covering the whole screen when I've seen them summoned. However, there was a puff of smoke, so maybe the video your speaking of was zoomed up right to where the squig was being summoned? I think I may have seen a video like that.

I believe I've seen the video of which you're speaking. It's the Squig Herder at Elkrund, so perhaps it was a blast from a Dwarven cannon instead? I don't think the massive amount of smoke was solely from the SH's summoning animation.

I think the video your on about, is this one, the Eva Vix RvR Vid 1 (http://war.curse.com/videos/details/737/). That was me playing the Squig Herder, you get a big puff of green smoke after you summon the squig, but the massive blast that hits us like 2 seconds after is something to do with a Dwarf Engineer.

i remember seeing a big green cloud of smoke after the squig was summoned. looked like he *poofed* out of the smoke. Thats what it looked like to me.

ah, cool. The cloud of smoke wasnt as big as I thought. The cloud of green smoke being the squigs "entrance" could be made more artistic.

These are a very bad examples(some are IP braking) but something like: the squig crawls out of the ground, a rift opens and out comes the squig, a thing that squigs usually resides inside of spawns and out of that comes the squig. I mean, there are lots of possibilities allthough I'm not the right person to come up with such ideas but someone else here might get a neat idea
