to devs (and other) What color is adaman hauberk?

[hiko]

blue?
purple?
blurple?
aquamarine

[Razushu]

blue?
purple?
blurple?
aquamarine

it's YELLOW!!!

looks kinda purple to me

[Tagrineth]

It's basically cobalt, which is blue. In-game lighting can often make it look purple or navy but if you disable lighting you can clearly see it stand out as cobalt/blue.

Unless your monitor settings are off, of course, which surprisingly many peoples' are.

[Sesh]

I threw together a quick pic of why I see it as purple for the most part:

The shoulders I can definitely see a blue blending, but the majority of the body is a much lighter blend of colors so if you're going by the majority of the body's color then it turns out to be purple.

In the end though I think both would be the most correct answer rather than one or the other.

[Camate]

Light-urple?

[Sparthos]

It's Blue, don't be silly.

[Neisan_Quetz]

A JP told me it was ultramarine so it must be true.

[Razushu]

Light-urple?

Can we get it's name changed to the Light-urple Hauberk? please

[Greatguardian]

Adaman colored.

I love all of you.

[Cream_Soda]

How about Odin?

Can we get Nidhogg in here to voice his views? and where are we on the adaman/Light-urple rename

[Bagel]

Sorry, we are unable to bring you comment from Nidhogg as no one is able to obtain a pop item for him. Seriously though, it's blurple.

[Khiinroye]

Didn't someone find out the hex value for the color?

[Alhanelem]

God dang, it's some shade of purple. Why was this ever questioned?

If it doesn't look like you could consider calling it purple, then your monitor needs to be recalibrated or your vision checked.

[Antanias]

Equal parts Purple and Cerulean...wait, my Wyvern is Hauberk-colored? o.O

--Antanias

[Soundwave]

It's actually multiple colors, you're staring at the center. As you move away from the center and towards the shoulders, it gets more blue.

It's both colors.

[Soundwave]

I KNEW THAT WAS FROM SNL but couldn't think of what, LMAO AWESOME! I think it was the one with Tom hanks?

I remember it and I'm only 21. Don't listen to everyone saying you're old!

[Fiarlia]

I rofl'd at Camate's post, SNL Celeb Jeopardy were my favorite skits.

Unrelated, but we know that these community reps, at least some of them read other FF sites, I wonder if they post there with different user names so as not to be tied to SE and such. :x

[Greatguardian]

Camate = Thorny? Oh, the possibilities.

[Fiarlia]

Camate = Isladar!

[Dart]

lmao SE staff with an actual sense of humor (seriously I had a good laugh) what is the world coming to.......

Congratulations hiko, on you _____ question of the day, and saddly the community reps are just dumb to reply to it. People have been on FF11 for over 10 years in the darkness over content poorly placed in such time. Now SE finaly cares about what people think is wrong about ff11 and they repond to this. Maybe If you asked how many hairs are on a galika's body merits a respons too? or Maybe Camate should run for public office I'm sure it would do a dandy job at that in RL bassed on reading this and many oblivious comments relating to nothing important to us. To awnser only one question a day if that and a retarded one at that is shocking and a reflection of why this game has the problems it dose.

Dear, btw how did you get that job cammate, bassed on your effort on clarifying questions and doing w/e else it is you do, leads me to belive its that friends and family bs put you where you are. get a grip and bring light to the darkness that plauges ff11

Did it ever occur to you that there might be topics they aren't allowed to post in yet so they don't confirm/deny or divulge information they aren't supposed to yet?

ITT: FFXI is over 10 years old, this is a thread from the future obviously. Also: hush yo' face.

[Runespider]

If I were making this forum I would of cherry picked some people from other XI communities to be the community reps, so makes sense anyway.

[Raxiaz]

I'm more interested in the color of the magic proc, "grellow" as the playerbase has come to call it.

[Cream_Soda]

this has been confirmed months ago

[Raxiaz]

Awesome, now what's the answer?

Again, the users here are SOOOOO helpful.... *eye roll* :/

[Cream_Soda]

Azure, ruby, and amber weakness

[Raxiaz]

So yellow?

Thanks.

[Cream_Soda]

nope, amber

[RabidSquirrel]

nope, amber

What? Amber? Amber is a combination of yellow, orange, and brown. Where does the green come from?

[Cream_Soda]

Don't ask me, I wouldn't have named it amber myself. That's just the official name for it. Maybe it stands for "if this doesn't look amber to you, adjust your monitor settings"? idk lol

[Khajit]

Does this mean with enough hard work we can bring dinosaurs back to life when proccing?

[Antanias]

lol, Pokemon reference? :D

[Seriha]

Jurassic Park.

[Raxiaz]

Amber's closer to yellow, and everyone calls the others blue, and red, both of which are simple colors - right next to yellow. Makes sense to follow suite in simplistic names.

No one in my whole time of weakness procing as ever called them "azure," "ruby," and "amber." It makes sense for them to be called that. But the playerbase is filled with lazy people - and these people think "azure" is somehow too difficult to type.

[Cream_Soda]

That doesn't make yellow correct.

Yellow is just as incorrect as grellow.

There's 1 answer on the test
What color is this weakness?
A) Amber
B) Yellow
C) Grellow
D) Green
E) Aquamarine

A gets you a 100% on the test

Any other answer nets you a 0% F.

[Raxiaz]

Yeah, except this is a game, and if you say "amber weakness," people might seriously go "huh?"

Correct answer is B, C, and D. Because players will recognize that far sooner than "amber." I assure you.

[Cream_Soda]

Just because people recognize it doesn't make it correct. The class average would just be really low.

[RabidSquirrel]

That doesn't make yellow correct.

Yellow is just as incorrect as grellow.

I choose answer F) Lime.

[Myrid]

People might say red, blue, grellow procs instead of ruby, azure, and amber to avoid mixing up chest colors with "light" colors. That or maybe we just didn't know what they were officially called until after everyone already learned incorrectly.

Also, on topic, adaberk is blue. Seriously. Purple people need to get their monitors checked..!

[Cream_Soda]

I choose answer F) Lime.
I haven't seen any scan trons in all my years as a student that go passed E :(

[BorkBorkBork]

Blurple for life

[Zemzerrett]

Can we get someone with a spectrophotometer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrophotometry) [for more accurate information on use(s), Google it] to determine the colour? :confused: We need big words and science to solve this problem.

[Greatguardian]

To be fair, I believe they use those English words to describe them primarily because they are the same English words they use for Lights in the Abyssean chests.

The actual !! marker, when inspected in a DAT viewer like ModelViewer or Altanaviewer, is a gradient that transitions from Green to Yellow throughout the course of the actual model. It is green, it is yellow, and in the middle it is a mix of both. It is most definitely never literally Amber colored unless your monitor settings are totally wacky.

I don't care what people call it one way or another though. It's not too difficult to figure out what they mean. You could call it blurpleberry weakness for all I care.

[Yarly]

Guess not everyone has seen the famous SNL celeb. jeopardy :/ Apologies for the obscure reference lol.

I'll bet eleventy billion gil that you're right about the color! ;)

[Mirage]

Purple, with a hint of blurple.

[Arcon]

Blurple .

[Tamarsamar]

A JP told me it was ultramarine so it must be true.

Ah, yes. I generally default to "ultramarine" ever since then. :)

Who else remembers this blast from the past? http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e88/Maestro333/ultramarine.jpg
