Change the color of enchanted items

bigscoothb14_ESO · April 2014

I enchant all of my items and I feel like when I put a gold enchantment on a ring, that ring should turn gold. Armor should be the same but with the enchanted stat colored "Adds 112 health". In my experience once you put an enchantment on an item people see the white name and scroll right through it on the guild store. Maybe down the road enchanters can upgrade rings and necklaces the same way blacksmiths clothing provisioning and woodworking do. I have sold dozens of glyphs and made dozens for people and much prefer people using them instead of deconstructing them for ip.

At the moment I find it not very rewarding to use a purple glyph on a green item and have the ring still be green quality.

BUT

The real issue seems to be that the quality of each item determines the value of the traits. Or to put it different: The Traits and Armor values are dependent on item color.

From that point of view it would be very confusing to have a white quality ring with a white quality trait to become a purple quality ring with white quality trait and purple quality enchantment.

Suggestion:

Traits and Enchantments should both have their independent color code.

Maybe the enchantment description on the item should be written in the color of the enchantment.

That way it would be more easy to spot a green ring with a purple enchantment.
