    Dear Devs, please make sure the Au Ra have proper "Red" hair-colors

    This is something that has kind of bothered me with the Highlanders for a while, and hope to see addressed at least with the Au Ra; there are no "bright, bold" hair-colors, but instead, they turn very light and pale, almost pastel.

    Obviously, none of us will be *totally* sure of how we want our new characters to look until we have a chance to mess with their appearance first-hand, but I'd very much like the option of choosing more "Red" colors.

    Specifically, I want to have a hair-color that mirrors Sleipnir's mane. I imagine my Dark Knight will probably be riding that mount almost exclusively, and I like for my characters to have a totally uniform, well-though-out look to them.

    Heck, just look at this character's appearance; I painstakingly made sure that his eyes matched the cloth of the Relic Armor, his hair matches the "metal" on his shoulders and gloves, and I chose a skin-color that made sense for Thanalan, but also complimented the canary-yellow of the set.

    Clearly, I spend way too much time planning my characters' appearances out, but when you get them "just right", it makes playing them way more satisfying. Even as easily-attainable as the Artifact Armor is, I still love using it. My hope is that I will feel similarly about my future Au Ra character, and having Red hair-colors (be it a bright, fiery orange, or a deep, dark auburn) would be awesome.

    Thanks!

    Are you talking about natural red, or crayon red? My character has natural red hair (not sure how well you can see it on my avatar), so it is possible to achieve that color.

    I'm pretty sure they can pull off deep red hair.

    Never had any characters with red hair. Difficult to pull off.

    I agree I always noticed this. And no not "natural" red hair I think the OP is talking more along the lines of bright/deep red hair like Ariel from little mermaid.

    You can get auburn, even some red highlights but the base can't be bright red.

    Even though I always choose pink, I can support this. For some reason there isn't much red to work with.

    It's red, but it's more of a poop red.
