    High Allagan Accessories - color issue

    So, I don't mind the design of the high allagan accessories, but I do have an issue and it is somewhat annoying to me at least. Does anyone else find it annoying that 2 of the sets have the same freaking color?

    I do drg and warrior, and I would love to be able to tell which accessory is fending or slaying by simply looking at the color. The current design is lazy and I doubt there is a "reasonable" excuse for this. If it is some type of engine limitation ... then wow.

    Currently High Allagan:
    Yellow = Slaying & Fending
    Light Blue = Healing and Aiming
    Red = Casting

    Coil 1:
    Purple = maiming and casting
    yellow = fending and striking
    light blue = aiming and healing


    Proposal:
    Yellow = Fending
    Purple = Slaying
    Light Blue = Healing
    Green = Aiming
    Red = Casting

    This way we get the benefit of having unique colors for each category. Which class gets what color is somewhat irrelevant to me; I just want the colors to be different.

    If whatever you're shooting doesn't die after you pump 8, 32 caliber, slugs into it, it's probably a dragon.

    Yeah, although I'm not as fortunate as some having multiple High Allagan accessories :P I used to hate this with First Coil accessories. Even to this day I'll end up with a Casting ring on instead of Maiming sometimes when switching gear around -_-

    Think it should just go back to the original gems from the pre-50 Rings. This includes ALL accessories, not just High Allagan.

    Purple - Aiming
    Yellow - Fending
    Blue - Healing
    White - Casting
    Red - Striking/Maiming/Slaying(melee)

    Ya I wouldn't mind that, but I think the reason why they changed them is so that the accessories would have a glow to them.

    High Allagan has a glow to it? I wouldn't know, haven't bothered to seriously try to down T5(more of a "don't care" than a "can't pass"), and the few people I have seen in 100% High Allagan you couldn't see the accessories.

    I'd rather just be able to tell the stat/class/job just by looking at the accessory. All the Heros accessories are all black, etc etc.

    Same goes for a lot in this game. The gear design really comes of lazy.

    I mean, when HA fending boots and the MNK boots have the exact same feet design... I could go on and on about this starting at low lvl gear or more jobs that share designs.

    It seems like the ps3 is holding us back! xD

    what drugs are you on? tank and mnk boots, have little in common...
    but mnk/brd sol gear, HA brd/caster and HA drg/mnk gear, are basically the same, except color
