GGG, Please stop giving us finisher effects that have a delay before the impact.

All these cool looking finisher effects and none of them compel me to use them because they all have a 1 second startup delay on the animation before they feel like something died.

Shaper's slam is great, and feels great. It adds more oomph to killing a unique mob due to how fast it comes out after the mob dies (about 0.3s)

As much as I like how the new Xesht's slam looks from the new twitch drop, I'll likely never use it due to it taking a full second to trigger. Please make all future finisher effects have no more than a 0.2s delay between the mob dying and the finisher playing the high-impact portion of its effect.

Hero Landing is great example of an instant one, love it. More like that please.
