These two weapons can be extremely potent if used correctly, but they're simply annoying in parties. They basically create giant blue explosions that obscure vision and make it extremely difficult for teammates to target an enemy. I want a visual nerf; keep the mechanics the same but tone down the dramatic explosions a little.
The Leviathan might be an annoying weapon as well, but at least the charge attack (the annoying aspect of this sword) doesn't visually hinder teammates.
or learn how to team with polaris and nitronome. it has drawbacks for a reason
It doesn't matter if you spam Nitronome/Polaris, using a single shot/bomb completely obscures your vision for a whole second. You can literally see nothing at all.
Fighting Nitro bombers in LD is extremely annoying because you can never tell where they're at after the first explosion..even though it's easy to back up and shoot them to death with an AP, trying to beat a Nitro with a sword is hard only because you can't see anything.
The visuals are way overdone. They should be much more translucent.

Just tell the teammates not to spam Polaris and Nitronome.
