[Wizard][General][Timewarp] Add visuals and sound queues

Currently the timewarp spell is getting discussed a lot and people complain about that it is still too hard to destroy it (even with the 1second re-activation delay).

As far as I understood Trikeri was sitting down with Keyvan to find a solution to the problems the current spell (including item traits) is causing. The conclusion was that probably the delay of the spell will get longer than one second so people have more „time to react“ which might be fine depending on how much more time the devs add.

In my opinion what the spell is missing and what adds to the problem is that visual and audio queues, for the players to understand that they got hit, are not good enough or missing. Mostly people get hit shortly before evading and don’t even notice they got hit, as their back is facing to the timewarp.

So my proposal would be:

1.) Add a distinct visual queue to the enemy hit (make him glow dark blue or something)

2.) Add a very obvious audio queue when someone is hit by timewarp

3.) Add a very obvious audio queue when the timewarp can be reactivated (overall or for the wizard only, this i am not sure about)

Deploy this to PTR and check how often people still get timewarped and how it feels to them. If still not sufficient prolong the re-activation delay by 0.25 seconds and re-evaluate with the same people on PTR again.
