Guild Wars 2

Small bug I noticed. On the top insides of the shoes, there is a red patch that is not supposed to be there.

Yeah, it has been there since the cultural armor changing patch went live.

Well A-Net didn’t design the armor with the idea that you’re gonna be playing the game pantless.
They probably figured that most leggings will cover those spots so may not have bothered to design those (very) small spots.

The red parts are visible even with T3 pants on, and they are of the same set! Must be a bug.
As a side note, I can see that same red colour in my T3 chest and gloves, but only from certain angles. The red in chest and gloves don’t come from Midnight Fire dye, like I first suspected.

The red is visible with pants on. I figured it would help people see it better if I removed the pants for the picture. This bug has only persisted since the latest armor patch. It was fine before the patch for an entire year.

You got a bit of Scarlet on your leggings. bah dum ching

Hmm, I don’t recall seeing any beneficial reply on the Main Thread as requested by ArenaNet themselves… yet this thread gets a Kristen Perry “I’ll take a look at the boots” reply??? Nice.

WatchTheShow.7203 – you made something move which all of us failed at! You are lucky!

Hi Kristen,

It is very rare to see this about a bug.
Can you help me as well? I assure you I’ve been waiting longer. Patiently. In the main thread. With a bugged character. With no reply.

Hm. Odd.

I’ll take a look at the boots.

Lily, could you screenshot what you’re talking about on your armors for me? That may or may not be a texture bug. It may be a tangent viewpoint thingy (that’s the technical term, sure. ;}). If it is, nothing to be done about it. If it is texture, I’ll get to it when I fix the sets.

I tried to get a screenshot of it, but I couldn’t get the red show up. I guess it was just some random reflected lighting issue (don’t know how to better say it :P). The red I saw was very similar to the boots, but very minimal (as in hard to see), so maybe the gloves/chest reflected some of that red (the T3 can be very shiny (reflective) at ingame day time).

Thank you Kristen for taking time to look at this!

Oh if we are talking about cultural armor bugs, could you also look at the textures changes on some Cultural Armors for Sylvari while using Graveborn’s Breather underwater or the Tequatl ones? The textures from these masks overlay the textures of the amors itself (I had to reskin my tequatl mask because of that).
