Better HP Bar Animation Add On

[Jinguu]

Hey guys, does anyone here know of an add on that shows a better HP bar animation where it instantly slashes the HP bar instead of the slow burn animation when you deal damage?

Here is a video made by WP that shows exactly what I mean.

Watch how the Bandit's HP bar goes down after a white flash compared to the animation that we currently have in game.

I'm not sure what you mean about the HP bar, to be honest.
How enemy health goes down depends on how you deal damage and as far as I can tell, the bar represents this damage in an instant.

Please leave a time stamp, too. It's a 20-minute video.

I don't get it .. so you want a mod that makes it so that it shows this small burn animation? Since I never saw that animation before and also saw no setting for it so it would have to be a mod, right? And he is controlling a dragon in this video, also indicating that he is toying around with mods.

That's a sort of behind-the-scenes footage from ANet. That's also a Wyvern, which is not a mount but a boss enemy from the Heart of Thorns expansion and it's one-shotting NPCs in Queensdale, the human starter map where Wyverns never appear, at all.
A one-shot kill will look like that. You will rarely, if ever, do that to enemies as a player, that's why you don't see that animation.

I am not talking about him one shotting the wurm. I was talking about the bandit's health bar. The way it goes down is much more satisfying to see like in other MMOS. The white flash indicates how much damage you dealt. Let me re-edit the post so others would understand better.

There is a variety third-party tools for GW2: websites, applications and overlays. If you Google "GW2 add-ons", you will get many hits to sites listing them.

There hasn't been one that directly edits the graphics of the game the way you want to. I'm not saying it can't be done, no idea, but I haven't seen any.

^^And I managed all this without insulting anyone, too.

The Muppets were awesome. I don't view that as an insult.

To change some Graphics you could use reshade. I used it for a while.

Don't be disheartened by these muppets, they tend to want to control all naratives in these forums.
There isn't an add on for that, not that I've heard of nor seen in 10 yrs of playing. Wooden potato is an affiliate and has special privileges most don't like being invite to test server to "leak" new content, display new weapons, etc. The only addon I'm aware of is
