Lucis Items should Glow

[shintashi]

I know this is just a cosmetic effect, but I think Lucis weapons for crafters and gatherers should glow, like zodiak weapons and other glowing weapons. Maybe they could sparkle, or radiate an aura, it doesn't really matter. But Lucis means light, and there's a title of Light associated with getting these tools. They aren't easy to get either.

Nah, I'm good. I'm already burning my eyes looking for a Good condition on something that may or may not be a primordial sphere. Adding more glows on top of that would require me wearing an actual BSM/ARM visor.

... but quickly realized how much that would distract from the condition procs.

Now I'm curious. How many people actually look at the color of the glowing sphere during crafting? I've always just watched the crafting window itself, which spells out the condition by name as "Normal" "Good" "Excellent" or "Poor".

I look at the sphere.

1. it would be ridiculous if the items glowed during crafting, agreed
2. the Allagan weapon glow is really subtle and "lights up" only when unsheathed
3. Crafters have 3 stages of weapon display:

• kneeling/crafting
• sheathed
• unsheathed/attacking

It is during the unsheathed/attacking stage that I suggest Glowing Display

4. ALL other Crafting tools don't glow, and frankly, most look identical. The subtle differences between Carpenter or Weaver Tool as a Lucis, a Supra, and Normal are scarcely worth mentioning.

5. Crafters also have the power to make Glamour Prisms, and a Lucis typically requires all 8 classes at 50 to succeed, therefore, Lucis owners aren't forced to buy a Prism from the Market board, as a DoW or DoM would.

6. A Glow/Not Glow button option for All classes, Similar to Display Weapon/Headgear would Make Everyone Happy, including many people with Zodiac weapons.

so if a Lucis requires all 8 at 50, how would a dow/m have a Lucis that is forced to buy a prism for the Lucis?

was thinking about them making a glowing tool just yesterday but quickly realized how much that would distract from the condition procs. probably not gonna happen.

I glamored over every glowy stage of the relic weapon so I wouldn't appreciate this at all. I much prefer the direction of dyable weapons and that alone.

[HakuroDK]

Agreed with Leadleaf. I love the dyable weapons/tools! The glowing effect, however, would be greatly distracting during the crafting process.
