Why is glass' icon not the same as it's circle symbol?

Glass is, too my knowledge, the only Magic who’s hotbar icon doesn’t match it’s symbol on it’s casting circles, and I was wondering why that is.


Glass is not a real magic, keep dreaming :pensive_face:.

I’m pretty sure ash’s icon and magic symbol aren’t exactly the same either.


I think it matches an earlier version of the glass icon, which looked more like the other icons.

Ash’s just looks bad.

Ash’s magic circle reminds me of bread for some reason.

Huh so there were magics with different circle symbols and icons, neat

Would’ve preferred the 4 squares tho.

I think they’re meant to resemble the outlines of the hotbar icons, but not the detail and all that. I know other magics can have the same detail between their hotbar icon and magic circle though.

I’m fairly sure the tool icons were designed by Infernoferno for AO, while the magic symbols were primarily made by (with the lost magics as exceptions made by Tobi ofc).

I don’t remember if the symbols are much different from WoM or are basically carried over from that 1to1 (the circles are different but idk about the symbols themselves), but ik for sure the icons were revamped so that might be why there’s a bit of a disparity

Lego magic

Oh yeah, I just realised

:glass_magic:
All the magic icon emojis we have here are likely the ones from WoM, and the glass one matches the outline in the circle.
