Tempest and Moon Ancient Aetherytes do not have updated crystal look. Elpis does.

Tempest and Moon Ancient Aetherytes do not have updated crystal look.

I added Gifs to illustrate the issue more clearly. Please look at this closely. This problem has been happening since Dawntrail launched and is easily verifiable by traveling to these aetherytes.

The Ancient-style Aetherytes at the Moon and the Tempest lack the updated crystal graphics, they are flat looking and do not look like shiny crystal like they should. They have Pre-Dawntrail graphics and do not look like crystal.

The Elpis Aetherytes, which are the same type, are updated.

Hi, I'm on PC and can verify this.

However, I want to correct you and say that these crystals are not quite the same type. While their meshes are generally the same, they have different textures, and more notably, the non-Elpis examples you pointed out are colossal compared to us.



The unchanged aetherytes were probably forgotten about due to the updater also not making this distinction.

Thank you! That's a really good callout, I appreciate it
