I like it and I'm fine with it. Always wanted it actually and I'm a long-time NB player.

On the Ashlander Battle Axe that my Nightblade main uses, the red glow appears as a red globe in the exact center of the two blades' wishbone-like formation, as though it were being held in place magnetically or electrically by the two blades. And when I'm fighting enemies, the red glow gets replaced by the yellow-orange glow of the weapon's Absorb Health enchantment. I quite like it.

This is my nightblade using a bow with a health absorb enchantment on a dummy on PTS right now.
I fail to spot the appearance of the orange glow and the disappearance of the still permanent red glow by grim focus.
The indicator for an active health absorb enchant can be recognised by the red and green particles emitting from my characters model upon hit. The whirlwind effect on the dummy comes from Relequens 5pc effect.

WHY wouldn't someone like a perma-glow feature? Well, for one, the color could clash with your outfit... which makes it extremely distracting and annoying. Two, not everyone likes 'glowy' items permanently showing on their character. I could keep going as there are TONS of reasons why people would not like a 'forced' glow attached to their character.
If ZOS is going to add permanent features like this, they should also add a TOGGLE to turn off 'perma-glow' from all items or skills that have such features. It's not rocket science ZOS... seriously. Players want OPTIONS, they shouldn't have to give reasons why they don't want to be forced to see perma-visuals on their items/character.
Every time I log back on my nightblade I am reminded of this red glow attached to nothing on my hip at all times that only I can see. I have 3 outfit slots on this character because I love making outfits and they are all forced to have this effect. I just absolutely hate it. Why do I have to change my build for a cosmetic thing?

Wow, that's pretty harsh. Not only did they change the look of something you already paid for, but they won't even attempt to make it right.
