The glow on relic+1 weapons is ugly

[Velox]

While I can tolerate the full body glow of the +1 relics, I was looking at Thyrus today and imagined how much "cleaner" and cooler it would look with JUST the headpiece glowing, and not the glow we have now, but more like white flames dancing up from its wings.

my brd relic leaves a trail of sparkles when i run ^^ whats not to love.
ps does everyones +1 leave a sparkle trail? i have other peoples effects turned down.

A man used a hammer to repair my book.
Then I had to put my book in a smelter/firey device to upgrade it to +1.
Now it glows.

I'm taking it all with a big chunk of salt ^.^;;

I'm looking forward to my Moogle Book, as it will look like the book of monsters from Harry Potter and squeak at me every time I open it....

As long as the gear doesn't go overexagerated fantasy-style like in most korean MMOs I'm fine with them I guess.

Example of what I mean:

Western MMO style isn't any better:


Dem shoulderpads. Bigger than her torso. And the shoulderpads on the males are even bigger.

Sadly, PLD weapon doesn't glow white. It glows purple-ish like the BLM relic. The reason for that escapes me.

They all glow something in the ballpark of their job stone's colour, although not exactly.

PLD job stone - cyan
Weapon - pale blue with pinkish highlights
Shield - pale blue with purplish highlights

Warrior job stone - red
Weapon - pinkish purple (this is the one least like it's job stone, although it is still in the ballpark)

Monk job stone - yellow
Weapon - yellow with green highlights

Dragoon job stone - blue
Weapon - purplish blue with cyan highlights

Bard job stone - pale green
Weapon - pale green

White Mage job stone - white
Weapon - white

Black Mage job stone - Black with purple sigil
Weapon - purple with orange highlights

Summoner job stone - green
Weapon - green

Scholar job stone - indigo
Weapon - light purple

I paid 900 myths for my relic, I'm disappointed that it only glows. It should blur and shake the screen (like Meteor) when I take it out.

I love the weapon glow personally, it helps keep my attention off the ugly armor.

Job soulstones:


PLD is waaaay off:


I think the highlights have taken over the glow for PLD. It looks like a purple glow already.

+2 for smaller glows.
