Is incinerate ever going to look cool again?

Is it?

I want fire, big explosive fire that slithers across the ground.

We’ve been rolling tiny sparklers across the floor for years now, I’d really like the spell to get a facelift and stop looking so small and boring.

After playing SoD Warlock… I REALLY miss the old Incinerate and Chaos Bolt look we lost in Legion. I’d give anything to get the old Incinerate ‘ground trail’ back, and the old Chaos Bolt model rather than a blob of fel matter.

I’ve been playing cata classic and destro look so much better. The spells feel like they hurt

I actually prefer the new one especially when coupled with Fire & Brimstone.
But Chaos Bolt was a huge loss. It went from something unique and threatening to just, generic green laser, scaled up 200%.

Personally I think the current incinerate is too small and looks more like lava than fire. If you gave the spell to shaman it wouldn’t look out of place. It doesn’t look like demon fire at all

I’ve commented in other threads that incinerate has a paint-like appearance, as though I were lobbing wet-paint at my target. It’s made more apparent when you have Green Fire on. While I like the sine wave effect—your fire snaking toward your enemy as it were—and the splash effect from the attack looks almost like embers, we could use a serious update, with a revisit from the iteration before Legion.

Also… Chaos Bolt—and even the animation we use to conjure it—could use a rework. It almost looks like it’s originating from out chests. Miss that seemingly draconic appearance it once had.
