Looking at my sylvari I tend to be somewhat disappointed with my look unless its night and my glow is shining.
Without the glow my eyes don’t look right and overall my character looks very bland.
I’ve seen my sylvari with the glow in a very well lit place and I have to say in comparison to a day time sylvari in a place just as bright it’s far more cool looking and does not look bland or unfinished. My eyes POP and really have a soul and my skins color and glow pattern really gives my character a unique appearance.

Could sylvari have a option were we glow all the time be it night or day and perhaps also a option to have that glow be constant?(for some reason it goes off and on =/ )
I understand its supposed to be bioluminescent however there just is something missing in the sylvari skin and eye tone without the glow during the day.

Anyway what the rest of you sylvari think?

The glow on Sylvari bodies is called Bioluminescence. This means that they sort of work like a glow in the dark ball. They absorb light during the day and expel it in the dark. So, it wouldn’t really work if we glowed all through out the day. We wouldn’t have time to absorb enough light for that to work.

Have you tried messing around with skin patterns + colours more? Try colour compliments?

My Banana skinned Sylvari’s bright blue eyes for some reason a really dull and almost black during day time. But the bright purple hair against the gold skin makes her stand out anyway.
