I want more weapons with glowing effect

[Evangela]

Why are we getting less and less weapons with glowing effect? The upgraded tome weapons used to glow in 2.XX and none of the new PvP weapons have any effect.

Why?

No please, no glow.
Akihiko Yoshida is still crying for what they've done to FFXIV with 2.0.

I, uh...kinda like that the vast majority of weapons does "not" glow.

But I come from WoW where many people would even enchant their low level weapons with +1 beastslaying (not sure about the english name) for no other reason than to have the weapon glow. When I think about it...I can't recall seeing a single non-glowing weapon there in my later days.

I find glowing effects on most weapons really tacky and looks good only in DoM weapons. Something like the Hive weapons are okay though since it's rather subtle and not an aura.

In 2.x a lot of people including myself wanted to turn the glow effects off on there various relics. So kinda nice to see less of these effects currently.

Though a toggle option would be nice if guess then people who want glows can turn them on and people who don't can turn them off

I didn't like much the weapons glowing. Should be a option to turn off the glow effect (without glamour), then ok. When you reach the Nexus Phase on the old relic was really really exagerated. And the Zeta effect of some of them too. They are cool, I won't lie, but after a time they result annoying and too overcharged.

I really like subtle glows, like, say, Hive weapons, Ramuh weapons, or the Void Ark armor. But the full on glow? No thanks, that gets an instant glamour over it.

It's fine if some people don't like the effect but why don't give an option for everyone? Make it an option to turn it on/off for your character so everyone can be happy.

I honestly don't know whats wrong with people and their hate for glowing weapons in a game where just about EVERYTHING glows when we attack. I'm not sure why we have less glowing weapons. I see the esoteric monk weapon has a fire effect and the rest don't have anything similar, so its kinda bs. I personally would love more glowing weapons, or at least some more elemental ones.

[Evangela]

I guess we're getting less glowing weapons because of some glowing weapon haters complained about it during 2.XX.

Instead of giving us an option to toggle the effect, they decided to create less glowing weapons.
