skill style color idea

fenn1539

this is a small one and not really feedback on something going wrong but more simply me wanting to get a general 'psijic gold' color for all skill and especially/primarily in this case, the arcanist cause the green is cool for the eldtrich theme but it would be fun to have it be similar to the psijic color especially if psijic gold didnt just make the ability gold but made the cool little blue tassels appear around abilities like pragmatic fate carver becoming a golden beam with spiraling blue lines of magic going around it ;D

I wish the colors in the outfit station pallet actually matched the end result.

If you dye a piece of silk, a piece of leather and a piece of metal in real life with the same color, will they have the same color results? No, as they are different materials and absorb and reflect the tinctures in a different way

Ok but it’s not real life. This has been a very common point of criticism for as long as the game has been out, so I wouldn’t try to invalidate like that.

Having an Arcanist beam with a full on Psijic ability appearance would be absolutely amazing!

Not real life, so what? Still different type of materials.

It would be horrible that a silk merchant costume from Elsweyr reflected the same light and color than a PvP heavy metal armor.

It would be illogical and ridiculous.

Glad ZOS didn't change how the colors work nor heard that type invalid criticism.

While I understand what you are saying, the thread isn't about the outfit station- it is about a new system we are getting in the next update where skills themselves can be changed different colors.


Back on topic- OP, I'd absolutely love this color combination for all skills. The effects you're describing sound like they'd look amazing on all of the classes and skill lines. I hope they consider such thematic colors!
