[Protection Field] Visual effect when field is running out

As a glass-cannon build (meaning that I don't invest any stats into defense or HP), protection field is vital to me every second that I grind. If I recall correctly, protection field lasts 40 seconds (or somewhere around that time) which can feel like 10 seconds or a few minutes. There's been so many occassions where the protection field died out on me and I got 1-shot-killed by a puff as soon as it ran out. It'd be nice if there's a visual effect (such as the bubble flashing in the last few seconds of its life) to let you know that your protection field is running out, so I can prepare to summon a new one, or get to safety. You may think this mainly applies specifically to a minority of peeps (i.e glass-cannon mages) but protection field is a parent-skill-level of the healing field and defensive field, which nearly all mages use.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm glad to hear players are using the forcefields, and making cool builds such as the glass cannon one you have going.
In the next update I've made it so that force fields will blink when they reach 90% of their time limit, letting the player know it is about to disappear.

Thanks. This will help a lot.
