First thing first, thank you, to the Devs out there, who made sure a Blood Elven version of this set made it into the game. The red and green is beautiful, and you just made so many players happy.
That having been said, I want to address the other two color variants.
Also disclaimer here, yes, I am aware nothing is final until released, just bringing it up now rather than later.
Purple
Clearly, we’re looking at a Void Elf variant here, which is a nice addition. That having been said, I would have two requests. Firstly, tone the gold back to more of a bronze to match the Heritage Armor.
Secondly and more importantly, those green flames on the orbs have to go. What would be really cool, would be to see that Void Walker black hole visual effect around them. It would be a much better match for the void aesthetic.
Blue
No doubt this is meant to be the High Elven aesthetic version of the set, the one we were shown when class sets were first announced. Back then, it looked great as is, but now? Now we’re seeing a difference that shouldn’t be there.
Why the green flames on the orbs?
Just like with the Void Elves, this doesn’t really look all that great, or thematic to the race it’s aesthetic is clearly drawn from. That said, while the original reveal showed us a white/blue kind of flame, in this case, I’d go so far as to say having no visual effect on them is even all that necessary. Speaking for myself I’d rather see the blue/white we got in the original artwork for them, but the key thing is, the green flames have to go.
Picture below for reference.
Thank you for your time, here’s hoping we can get these small changes in.
