Anyone else that thinks the default skin of Caretaker's Shrine needs a better animation. Currently it's really hard to see the progress in how Caretaker's Shrine builds up in power. Compaired to his other skins that have a way better animation for it. Currently I litterly would just buy the Snow Day skin for the clarity it provides.

Snowday Bard : When the 'mellow lands in the cocoa, you're free to drink it. Elderwood Bard : When the flower blooms, then it's ready. Default Bard : So when the glowy orb that comes out is farther up off the ground than normal and makes a kinda gong noise you can hear only if you're near it and makes a little bit more glow than normal... Then it's ready.

Having a skin makes explaining Bard just a little bit easier.

The rest of his abilities use shades of red/orange as well as yellow. Perhaps if part of it was a red/orange while charging, then ending with all particles being the golden yellow it currently is when finished charging.

I would recommend the swirling particles have a different color than the glowing orb in the middle during the charging animation.

Something like...

Charging: Swirling particles begin at red/orange, gradiating* into an golden/orange-yellow color as the shrine charges. Glowing orb in the middle a noticeably different color from the swirling particles, likely staying the current golden yellow.

Fully charged: Swirling particles and glowing orb unify into one color, the golden yellow we know today.

*Gradiating may or may not be a real word, the usage is derived from a combination of gradient and radiating

How about the orb has a little spirally effect on it, and, when it is ready, the spiral rotational speed and size increases, and keeps rotating. The orb could become shinier too.
