Add a gloss item to the game so people can get the shiny look back. Problem solved and the art team can keep their rationale intact.Greetings,
We checked with the Graphics team to see if there was anything shady going on regarding this, and they wanted us to pass along their reasoning as to why the appearance of gear changes after being dyed.
Metal equipment was created to have an enamel-like look to it when it is dyed, just like if you painted something metallic in real life. Similarly, cloth equipment was also designed to function the same way as real life, so the texture changes when it is dyed because the cloth is soaking up the dye.
As both types of equipment were created like this intentionally, the team does not have any plans to change the textures.
