The HQ border.

I know this has to be the most random question ever, but...

Why are the "white boxes" different for some items? You can clearly see that one is a solid white border while the other seems to be a more "blended" border (the better-looking of the two, IMO).

It makes my brain twitch a little bit, especially when I equip items that have different borders. IT JUST DOESN'T MATCH! :p

Was there a reason for this? I don't know if this was asked and answered before, but I'd love to know why this is.

PS: You should really change them all to one or the other. Thanks!

I wonder if when the item was added to the game affects this? Maybe there was the original white border and then a few years later they added the blended border? hmmm...

:confused: Are you meaning to be speaking of the colored borders suggesting their tier's in the version of high quality in numbers that they are? Like: "White Color Border" around the icon/item being "High-Quality Tier +1", Blue Color Border being the signature in the version of High-Quality +2, and Yellow Colored Border being the signature status of showing you its a High-Quality +3 item/gear/weapon/etc. I'm not sure they've added more border colors to the game yet still to represent those tiers higher than +3 but would be nice to see it happen. :p :cool: ;)

The borders are part of the icon image, they're not tacked on by the game, so its probable that a different person handled the ones with different borders or something.

It's more than a little OCD to complain about this IMO, however, if someone has the spare time to make the corrections then I'm all for it.

There aren't any items beyond +3 at this time (and there's no gear past +2). If I had to guess, +4 would probably end up being either red- or green-bordered.

Also, there's a dark grey border around -1 items.
