Well, I guess your looking at the sword when it was "sealed" to the public. Budumts-ill shut up now.
The sealed sword looked like this in-game for quite a long time - at very least for months after launch!
Few months? I remember joining SK on may of 2011 but I don't think I've ever seen it like that, then ofc, it took me a while getting one, or pherhaps it's just my memory failing... Few days ago a guildie said something about "sharing heat" and It took me a while to remember that was actually a thing you could do in the days of health revs.
Welp... september, I... I'm feeling very old now, I'm forgetting things... I must have held this sword plenty of times by then...
Yep, definitely, I'm a grumpy old Grandpaviri... all makes sense now, well, this old knight has to go take his pills, now if I could remember where I left them.
well aviri at least you didn't go crazy like grittle

I am pretty sure that was the look that the sealed sword had before the official launch of the game, notice that the fang ov vog that the other knight is holding has a different fire particle than the one we have now.
