New armor colors with patch!

Bflaker

I like the changes they made to the armor color, atleast with my VR4 armor. I'm wearing 5 Heavy, 2 Medium(Helm & Belt), all purple refinement. Before it was just silver armor with gold trim and red leathers. This looks much better in my opinion. I just wonder if the purple refinement is what gives it the pearlescent look?

They appear to have snuck in a few changes

AngryNord

Are the armour styles on the chargen previews changed too?

UrQuan

They did mention in the patch notes that they were making changes to VR level armour colours. Nice to see that it's an improvement.

vyal

Yep, character looks completely different, gear-wise.

You have to stand on top of containers to loot them now. (no more standing 1 meter away, no no, you must mate with the furniture to loot it.

And of course, the best part, all my stats (magicka, stamina, health) are now lower than they were yesterday, permanently. That's so great.

They change dark talons, but don't offer a skill point refund, that's nice too, but it's ok, because it's for DK's, which are the current rock to scissors.

/annoyed.

I'm glad to see a darker look here, the light brown medium armor (I'm trying to be sneaky! ) was absolutely hideous.

Looking forward to 5:30

Wow...my armors look insanely better. I am really impressed. I can finally take off my costume.

There's another thread I was a part of that was all about the terrible aesthetics of VR gear. Before that, apparently ZoS thought it was working as intended. Turns out, there WAS a glitch causing the armor to look like crap. So thank the OP of that thread for getting this fixed.

Yep, that thread definitely helped! Glad you guys are seeing a positive change.

Just add in my dye system based on achievement points. >:C

I hope the color changes hit epic/legendary daedric style light armor too. I think we can all agree that was the worst colored armor in the game.

downloading patch still, hope the VR6 armor color doesn't look bad

What? Are max hp mp and stanima has been reduced? Why? To make everything harder?

Aeradon

Oh wow. It looks amazing!

@Slash8915‌ Does the employees not have VR characters? I thought they test the game using programme altered levels?

Hell if I know, I just know everything is now lower, and I can't be the only person that will notice this.
I -despise- stealth nerfs. If you're going to nerf something? Fine. At least freaking tell us. grrr.

Looking good!

Petros

Dear God I hope not, I just made it to 3k hp with food buff.....If it's lower....I'll just have to change out glyphs then

That's... not Thor. More like something out of Colonel Kilgore's fever dreams...

As most Vikings, Thor would likely have made do with a chainmail byrnie and perhaps an iron helmet

Depends on what part of the internet you're in.

This is a great change and one more example of the devs listening to the feedback from the community. +1 for ZOS on this and keep up the good work, can't wait to see what my new vet gear will look like! ;D

It was such a jarring change I thought my client was broken. YMMV.

I like to think that Thor would have been more like a berserker, strutting out onto the battlefield nude and frothing at the mouth.

I'm almost afraid to ask... is this a fetish or something?

What? You're telling me a rabid Thor isn't a fetish of yours?

Huh... Then you must be one of the weird ones.

My previously silver boots, gloves and belt are now more gold and details(blue quality calcinium heavy) and my sorc's green quality v1 leather is now a more rich blue than the drab tan it was before.
