    I'm not the one who needs to be convinced by your report, but I'm not seeing the problem personally. It looks to me like they just stand out differently because the background is darker, or perhaps it's how the moonlight reflects off the leather, particularly in contrast with the very dark skirt behind it. The lighting doesn't look incorrect to me.

    Respectfully, I disagree. Genuinely, you may be unable to see the difference due to your screen; my primary monitor is 4K UHD and I can see the color disparity in all dark environments, but on my side monitors (which are cheaper and have much worse color display) there are some environments where it looks just fine [but the issue is visible on my primary].

    Regardless. I don't see a good reason why the boots should go from appearing black in daytime, and matching the other dark clothing, to appearing a drastically lighter tone in comparison to the other dark clothing (which don't interact with dark environments the same way) at nighttime. To me it seems like there is some issue with how the material/texturing(?) reflects light or a lack thereof. I'm no graphics expert so I can't really diagnose the issue, though.


    At the end of the day I acknowledge that this might be too nitpicky to get fixed, though it does suck. I will probably just have to change the boots I use because they clash so badly in a lot of darker duty/raiding zones, which is unfortunate especially since that's a current tier augment wasted, rip lmao.
