Are the tattoos visible on the skin or not? None of the other body markings are, but i don't have the dead water tattoos so i can't test it myself. Just asking because they should, and i think it would look pretty badass. You never know with these guys though.

    I think Gina said that the tatto's won't be visible if you wear one of the new skins.
    Let me look for the comment though.

    As expected, absolutely ridiculous! Hey, let's make this really nice looking skin and name it Dead-water, and these tattoos that would go really well with the skin and also call them Dead-water, but the catch is they can't interact with each other...

    They just don't stop to amaze me. If it's true that is.

    Ok, so I have to ask - will the Deadwater body markings be able to display over the Deadwater skins? Because that's definitely in my top five wishes (skins would still allow body markings). <3

    Just checked with the team and it sounds like these ones do not stack. The body markings are hidden by the skin.

    For the record, lipstick is the only marking I’m aware of that appears over skins. I think the buoyant armiger markings might appear over specifically the bloodforged skin (or they affect it in some way iirc), but seems by and large that skins apply on top of markings (and it wouldn’t necessarily be a simple change to alter that dynamic, especially on an ad hoc basis).

    The psijic tattoo and zombie skin interact, that one I know of. Shame, would have been cool to see these new skins and tats work together..

    the dread water skin is actually pretty cool, it makes your lizard have a pearl/candy type skin, looks real weird on my imperial.

    Tattoos on that skin would kind of be impossible because of the way light works in the game, you would have too many layers that need to reflect and refract light and the rendering engine probably doesn't have that level of complexity.

    The other skin is just stupid looking lol
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    Keep in mind though whether the skin is opaque, like these, or translucent, like amber plasm, frabricant, necromancer, and I believe the vampire skins. I admit that I haven’t looked at the zombie one enough to know which it is, but I was under the impression that it’s translucent.

    Edit: and based on how green it is on the argonian here compared to the other races, I’m inclined to believe the zombie skin is translucent as well: https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/decayed-zombie/
