I play GW2 since the presales and during that time there were many unpleasent updates for me. But this update drives me to complain in the official forum for the first time. (Also I’m from germany so please excuse if my sentences sounds strange, I hope you understand them.)
I was quiet shocked, after I saw the Sylvari Necromancer of one of my friends today after the update. His Sylvari was wearing a dark green T3 light cultural armor, but today it looked like lime green. At first I thought he changed the colours. Then I logged in with my Sylvari Necromancer and felt that the colours doesn’t fit at all. I matched the colour of the armor with the colour of her hair. So I noticed the colour is too bright. Then taken a closer look I realized not just the colours changed, also the textures were less detailled. After that I recognized, that some parts were glowing. But unfortunatly not in the colour my Sylvari glows. (I really don’t like this fact too)
So here is another disappointed Sylvari-fan. I would be so happy if it were possible to fully colour the heavy Nightmare Court-armor because of my characters skincolour there are huge mismatched parts of the colour of the armor. But this update didn’t give more colour options; It changed the way the existing colour looks and it took away details of the armor. So instead that I could customize my armors more, It ended up that the colours doesn’t fit, details were removed and the new glowing doesn’t fit either.
I’m also very scared that you plan to do the same to some of the other armors too.
PS: This question is a bit offtopic, but I have some armors with clipping defect like the stomach comes through the armor while breathing and so on and I also reported it. So is there only the adding of glow to the Sylvari armors, or is there a graphic team which also works on such clipping issues?
