I understand this could go in the suggestions thread if it was viewed as a suggestion, but i'm hoping to raise awareness to OOO about an issue me, many of my guildies, and i suspect much of the community is "concerned" with. (i use the term concerned loosely :)
--and i feel it should be discussed generally.
If you guys don't agree, feel free to say so, and i'll gladly admit i am wrong--and i also realize this affect a very very small number of players, but still feel it is an issue.
RARE ACCESSORIES.
Wings (prismatic, and divine, and heavy, having been purchased for upwards of 16-17m for three pairs).
Halo (specifically the prismatic...divine halo looks awesome.)
Divine Items (some but not all. Halo is awesome with its gloe. But divine bomb bandolier, divine canteen, divine mechtennas, divine goggles, divine knight vision goggles...maybe scarf, mohawk, and wolver tail? we don't know yet, don't believe anyone has found them)
Volcanic Mohawk
Many of these ultimate Rare Items (prism, divine and volcanic) just do not pop like they should.
1. The prismatic wings and halo should glow like the prism eyes and prismatic goggles. (halo is too subtle imo. should be bright like divine)
2. Divine scarf, mohawk, wolver tail, mechtennas, wings, bomb bandolier; they should all have the light effecct (like the back of skolver coat.)
---divine halo looks great.
3. Volcanic wings, mohawk should be lava-like, with fire trails like vog coat. Volcanic halo should be less subtle all. bright like divine halo :) Volcanic Tail should be "moltent" and u know, lava-like (i heard rumors this is the case, but cannot say for sure).
So again, i feel that some of these don't pop. Volcanic halo and prismatic halo are both a touch too subtle. So far all the wings look a little "flat." Some divine items just look like a cool grey color, instead of bright and shiny (divine vertical vents and halo look great. bandolier is almost grey enough to clash with skolver coats and silver bombhead masks).
Scarves.......we need a wider variety of scarf colors. So far (cool, dusky, drab, toasty) they are almost all either blue-grey or grey-blue. Heavy is yellow-brown, i admit. We need a grander color range for scarves.
I could be off base. If there isn't a public outcry that should be brought to OOO attention, then by all means fellow-knights tell me. "ROMMIL, THIS IS A SUGGESTIONS THREAD THING, BUGGER ON OUTTA HERE!!" But if you guys agree this is a design flaw that should be addressed, please say that as well.
AND LASTLY: Despite my above statements, i think that the wings, halos, scarves, tails are completely awesome. I love the high end accessories, and the ability to uniquify our knights. I just feel some should be "AMPED" up a bit. For the good of the world (and by world i mean cradle).
