Looking for owners of "Whispers of Sithis" Dark Brotherhood crown crate bundle

Fischblut

Hi all I would love to see how Whispers of Sithis weapons and the Claw Seer of Sithis costume from this bundle dye, please.

Also, it would be perfect if someone has Minotaur polymorph from this crate season and can post a showcase of it's sounds/emotes.

Thanks in advance!

Here are the dye channels on the arms pack and costume, in glaringly distinct colors to make every channel clear!

Tried to post them directly in this comment but the site wasn't agreeing with me. Hope this method works.

@MafiaCat115

Thank you very much, those are good colors to show channels! Weapons dye perfectly!

As for the costume, can the grinning face on the helm be dyed too?
On preview, it seems to be the same color as spikes on the shoulders. On your screenshots, they all use the same channel (blue). The face on the helm uses this channel too?

The helmet's face does become blue like the shoulder spikes when dyed. Didn't even think to have the helmet on. The jade and the greenish feathers stay the same color as they are undyed, even when all channels are used.

I've bought this bundle very late, as this crate season is ending... But I still wish to post my detailed feedback about these cosmetics

I was going to skip this bundle, because I don't really like the arms on the back of Claw Seer of Sithis costume, and helm's face on human characters (I only previewed it on High Elf back when these crates were released).
But as these crates got countdown, I accidentally previewed the costume on my khajiit character... The helm looks insanely cool on khajiit!



This bundle was totally made for my nightblades

Sadly, the costume is very complex, and having just 3 dye channels limits the possibility of proper customization.

Pure white:

Different shades of white mixed:

Pure black:

Better color combo of white/black/golden:

Weapons are awesome They take dyes really well. Their dye channels are perfect, you can make skeleton parts stand out.



Void Pitch Black is very edgy, much dark:

Coldharbour Ash Black is better for showing all details:

Julianos White looks good with red special effects:

They can be heard by other players, I personally experienced it Their whispering voice's volume is tied to Effects volume. Awesome feature!

I would only wish that they had some special reaction to delivering killing blows with them.
Also, since Monday's patch, weapons lost the whispering effect when you sheathe them.

0:47 - sheathed whisper sound

Now they are just silently sheathed... Such change was not mentioned in patch notes, so I guess it's a bug

1) It's very disappointing that the helm from this costume is not also available to use as Hat separately Please, add this option somehow I would love to use this amazing helmet with other costumes/outfits. I hope designers consider it! @ZOS_Kevin

2) It really needs 4th dye channel. I never liked green feathers on Argonian-themed costumes, because that part can never be dyed. It ruins most of my favorite color schemes









I would tie green feathers and bright green accessories to one new channel. Or, with existing 3 channels, I would include feathers and trinkets with channel for metal parts.

Currently, there are only two ways to make this costume look just right: applying green color to metal parts, or using just 1 color for whole costume and mixing it with green skins.





If feathers can't be dyed, it's better to make them white or black on future costumes - it would be much easier to create tasteful color mixes with those colors

3) This costume takes dyes nicely, but it's difficult to create my preferred color mix here I would love if the face on the helmet could be dyed separately, but that would require 4th dye channel for it I would even not care about green feathers, if I could have black costume with red and golden details, and white "skull-like" face on the helm (so it really stands out). Sadly, can't make the scary face white here for maximum effect:



Currently, if I wish to have pale skeleton face, my whole costume has same color:
