When I was playing in Beta, my favorite armor set was the Cobalt set, because I liked the way it looked, with the cool blue metal and the colored spiral ponytail. However, once the game was released and I got cobalt armor again... everything I liked about the armor is gone! No ponytail(instead leaving this big ugly hole on the back of the helmet) and the armor is completely monochrome. I thought it would fix itself in time, but it's been months.
On a second character, I started following the Emberbreak armo alchemy path, because it followed the cute double-spiral tail helm theme. But then on the wiki, I noticed that the pictures of the helmet of the final helmet in the alchemy path didn't look like the rest! Same with the Blizzbreaker set! They both looked like the helmet for the Surge Breaker set.

THe armor and shields match the rest of the alchemy paths, but the helmets do not. It's kind of disheartening. I also noticed this inconsistancy a few months ago, before i stopped playing for a while. I'd really hoped it'd be fixed by now. Please fix it soon!
Dont get those ember break. and frostbreak stuff.they don't even have 4* upgrades.
