the quest giver pins are looking weird...
is this a problem at my end (my graphic card maybe) or is anyone else seeing the quest giver pins in some intrusive blue color now?
may this this a bug from the update?

    It's probably a repeatable quest

    Because the answer is in there ;)

    Blue quest markers mean they are repeatable/daily quests (like pledges or crafting writs for example)

    Daily quest pins have a different color now.

    I would agree with this statement. Maybe the colour should be a dark grey or maybe yellow or something. The blue colour is a strange choice.

    yep. it's really a bad choice, it looks wrong... and it's kind of pointless, i'd prefer to have that blueish color alert on my quest journal, that would be very useful when you have many daily quests mixed with standards quests, but in the icons i don't really care. i'd disable it if i could.

    At least it's noticeable. All this time, I never realized the Spell Scar quest was a daily.

    i understand that, but there was no need to change the icons if they just add that color to the listing text in quest journal. it would be much better, more useful and discreet. and this new intrusive icon should be optional.

    lol does stand out though when you get them lol

    just wish the other types would show up in other areas,
    just going to have to wait and see what happens

    and check the dev's updates they might show some improvements

    but think i'm going to wait till tomorrow evening before I log back in :)

    Discreet and useful are opposite things when you haven't done the quests for a town or area but are just looking for the pledge, daily, or writ board. I feel bad I burned that one guy's flag in Cyrodiil now that I know he wasn't one of the dailies I could just redo.

    That said, options are always good.

    yes, that's why i said that "this new intrusive icon should be optional" --- because " options are always good" 8-)

    it's not a bug after all, but it's now a suggestion. maybe it would be better to move the topic instead of close it.

    The earlier PTS iteration of a golden/brown instead of blue outline I think looked better:

    Less intrusive, still recognisable.

    I thought it was one of my addons acting up, now I'm disappointed it's not. The icons look ugly, I'd much prefer the gold/brown option above.
