    7.0 Graphical Update - Hair Highlights Feedback

    Hi everyone,

    First time posting on the forums, so I hope I do this correctly! I've seen a lot of discussion posting on here regarding character appearance changes in the Dawntrail benchmark due to the 7.0 graphical update and wanted to add my own feedback.

    Here's an image comparison of my character (Raava Viera, hairstyle #10) as she currently appears in the game, as well as how she appears in the character creator for the benchmark:



    As you can see, there is a drastic change in hair highlight patterning between the two. This is pretty disappointing to me because I adore how her hair highlights look currently with the lighter fringe and especially the lighter strands in her braid, and the graphical update appears to be removing both of these elements. If the changes had been more slight I think I wouldn't have minded it as much, but it seems like the new version of her hair has highlights significantly focused on the back of her head rather than the front, which is a pretty jarring change.

    Has anyone else had similar issues come up with their hair highlights due to the update? I'm conflicted because otherwise I generally like how my character looks in the benchmark, so maybe this is just something I'll have to get over and make my peace with LOL.

    Please let me know your thoughts!
