It’s called rutile. There are also fibrous minerals like selenite, hematite and tourmaline that grow in strands.

is it really though? what purpose does this serve in the game?
“Yes it is. It’s called Artistic License. The Artist has the right to create any way they chose.”

They’re pretty amazing all by themselves. Some grow in snowflake like patterns. Which I think is called dendrite or dendritic rutile. Moss agate is a lovely example of the patterns, though the chalceondy around it encapsules the hair inclusions

but why would the artist choose to do this, though? that is what i was wondering.
Oh that is so cool!
As an artist myself, if I have an idea and I like it sometimes there’s no rhyme or reason. I just like it and I go with it.

Had some thunder eggs like that when I was growing up.
Dad used the rock polisher on them and they looked amazing.

Yes. I have a couple specimens, but none as pretty as these. They get spendy when they’re this well pronounced, unless you rock hound them yourself

ok, but i just dont understand what the purpose of this would be, though.
Exactly this.
It’s their company, their creative effort and design.
If people don’t like it they don’t have to roll .
I’m not fond of Tauren Lights but I’m not going to come here and raise a stink about it.

it just seems like the developer time and resources that went into this design could have been better spent in other areas of the game, in my opinion.
