Not a new issue but is there a reason drums look like flutes on p99?
It'd be nice to have the classic drum graphic.
This 2010 thread reported the issue and someone said it was classic to have flute graphic.

If you never got to experience the purple particle graphic of the Thunderous Drum of Karana, you missed out the ultimate time to play a bard.

Technicallly flutes look like drums but drums took the name from flutes so the drum is what we call a flute and a flute is what we call a drum. This is infact true and why brad made the drum & flute look the same i made that up.

Back in the day, it was also classic that there was no walking/running leg animation while the drums were being played. So basically, when the drum playing "guitar" animation was going, the legs were perfectly stationary and you were, in effect, ice skating during the animation.
Thus, the proper combination should EITHER be 1) ice-skating (no leg movement) with drumstick lute animation, OR 2) proper leg animation plus visible drum banging that came with Luclin. This nonsense hybrid we have now, with legs moving but only showing the drumstick, did not occur in classic.

I don't remember the ice skating drum being a thing, so i'm also going to call for evidence on this. Because it would be extremely funny as a gif :P

I specifically remember the "no legs moving" and I thought it was awesome that these super speedy bards got to glide across the map.
eventually they "fixed it" but it made me sad

This. I was disappointed when I started here and saw they had fixed the leg animation.
