thoughts on the zeta glow effects?

[Ashkendor]

Does anyone know if its possible to get the prior Zodiac weapon from the Calamity Salvager like the original relics for glamour?
I am not really fond of the new glow & would like to keep the look of my Yoichi Bow.

If not, then make it happen SE! lol

Pretty sure they mentioned this would be a thing eventually, but I can't remember where.

I liked the overdone glows

And this was a problem... how...?

Becuase now I am actually interested in finishing it at some point instead of most likely never finishing it. They previous glow gave me migraines. Why should I do all that work for a weapon I couldn't even show off because I couldn't even look at it.

If I'm going to put a ton of work into something, it's not so I am required to glamour over it just so I can tolerate using it.

I'll take this

Over this

any day. Nexus was hideously overdone. It made Curtana look like a lightsaber. The bow was even worse; it looked like a miniature sun that mysteriously fired arrows. I love this new low-key glow a lot better and I'm glad they didn't completely overdo it again because it would've defeated the purpose of the weapons being dyeable.

It's an improvement, but of all of the Zeta weapons I still largely dislike the Paladin glow. It's still too much. The glow cage on the blade is still way too large for my tastes. I think it would have been perfect if the cage extended no more than a handful of pixels from the edge of the blade.

At least the base Zodiac sword is one of better looking ones though.

I rather enjoy the new look of Apocalypse. It seems like the jobs fall on either a holy/divine or dark/void side of things.

This is why we can't have nice things...why are ppl so whiny about glowing weapons?
The Zodiac Braves wielded weapons that shone like thousand suns (well that would be to much) but why should weapons that are brimming with energy, look as plain as every other wep in the game?
The glow is the only thing that differentiates the relic, from every other wep.

I HATED the SCH nexus, and I don't understand the people who liked it. How could our characters read it when the light would have melted their eyeballs out of their sockets? The Zeta glow is so much better. I'm happy the devs didn't go crazy with it. It makes sense now.

A weapon can have unique features to it without being obessively glowy to the point that it obstructs the latter. Examples would be Artemis Bow having a unique animation fit for a bard, Yoshimitsu being the only ninjatos in the game fitting for a ninja, and Gae Bolg's design, among other weapons.

And on the other end, thats where most of the zodiac weapons fall short imo, a good amount of them exchanged that unique design for a pretty bland and generic design (again, looking at the yoichi bow, sasuke blades, among other weapons) that do not fit the concept of our jobs (compact harp versus a longbow, gigianticass cleavers versus ninjatos, coeurl fists versus...claws...) and we have nothing to work off who the zodiac braves really are because they never expanded upon that throughout the questline.

I don't have it yet, but I won't like it for the Paladin for sure. The Gold matches my armor, the glow throws everything off XD

yeah thats why i have an yoshimitsu atma on me for glamour :3 , too bad i cant remove the tassels

[Ultear_Milkovich]

Well, surprisingly my Lilith Zeta is the first glowing weapon that i did not glamoured... so i think i like it.

The purple light on it looks dark and classy whereas novus/animus looked like radioactive rods
