What is this??

I’ve been playing Eso PvE (trials) and PvP for a long time. I’ve never seen this effect/aura on a character before. Reminds me of a mix of imperial physique and mending.. Its a purple-pink smoke surrounding the player. It seems to be a “permanent” effect because he was wearing it for 2-3 hours. Wouldn’t tell me what it was or how he got it. I’m very curious as I rarely find something that baffles me in eso anymore lol

Honestly my first thought was like yokeda or something since I know 5pc Aether gives that nice pink smoke on your staff when you swap bars. I haven’t seen anyone use the craglorn tank sets in a while. I doubt it’s it though. The guy had like 68k health, by the way, if that helps.

I hope the pic I took is good enough to tell... Watch it be something common and I’m actually a scrub.

    I don't recognize it, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. It could be a mix, I can get purple orbs when my ebony armory and worms raiment sync up when I load into a zone.

    Proxy Detonation?

    I was thinking along the same lines. Probably some spell that bugged onto the character and wouldn't clear.

    It’s definitely not proxy det. I use that often. It doesn’t have a fiery smoke effect. Just purple.

    Looks like an ability from some sort of oblivion/daedric skill. Was it a constant effect or just an explosion that lasted a second or two, that maybe glitched that way?

    I was hoping to see a class icon in the nameplate area ... my guess is Bound Armor just went crazy and there's extra effects rendering for some reason.

    Well he was a sun shield build Templar (Iassume because of the high health) he was definitely a Templar however.

    Though it does remind me of the mag sorc armor, the glowy eyes.

    You do realise the Imperial Physique set only works while you are in the Imperial city itself?

    I know what you di-Iddly did... (you would be wise not to do that again during a time when Suspicion in the gaming space is at an all time high.)
    by not actually revealing real drop tables in the game for all items, you only prove what has been proven with proof of concept that you can/will manipulate item drop chances based on certain elements performed by the player.

    But if you have 10k+ telvars the blue glow works everywhere (even if additional stats not)

    gethemshauna is correct, the effect is visible everywhere (including PVE), but the tel var bonus only works in IC

    I see a close effect when i get zinged with wizards reposte, though its not quite the bright and not permanent duration, but it is problly a glitch, weird effects stick sometimes and don't go away.
    Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.

    Yeah, but the visual effect is persistent.

    My only guess is that the visual effect is only "Partly" tied to the set. (really the visual effect should only apply in the imperial city.)

    No, I mean, the visual effect for IP is always visible (so far as I know). It doesn't matter if you're in the IC or not. Though it might disappear if you're wearing it when you leave the IC. (It does appear if you equip it outside of the IC.)

    You didn't ask the guy in question? Altho, I'm sure he was probably getting tons of questions as to what that effect was.

    I actually did ask the guy, he was trying to charge gold for the info.

    He would not tell me otherwise.

    No way I’m paying gold lol

    I suppose he wanted to be the only one with this effect and appear unique

    My guess is he ended a BG match with the BG bomb thing still on him.

    If the match ends and you leave before it explodes it can bug out and keep the visual on you.

    Had it happen once but I can't remember exactly what it looked like, this reminded me of that though (making me think that's what it is)
