Once upon a time, the Laurel and Malachite style mats were BoP (in part because Malachite was sold on the Crown Store--before mimic stones existed--and Laurel was probably slated for the Crown Store too, before mimic stones nipped that in the bud), and that is my guess as to why they are legendary (though the Akaviri style was also BoP once upon a time, even though it was always white-quality).
Regardless of why these mats were originally designated as Legendary quality, it makes no sense now. No other in-game style mats are Legendary (Mimic Stones are the only other ones, but they're CS), and all of the other "refined" style mats (e.g., Dried Blood ->Tainted Blood) are all white-quality instead of purple- and gold-quality for Malachite Shards and Malachite.
This is a quirky inconsistency that makes no sense and drives my OCD crazy. Please make Laurels, Malachite, and Malachite Shards white-quality, like all the other style mats and style mat fragments in the game.

What does it matter what color they are?
Of all the things to worry about, you freak out over this?

✭✭✭✭✭Of course it's a minor issue. But I'd imagine that the fix is also accordingly trivial.
Plus, it's good to maintain a bit of consistency in the game. Why do these two style mats stand out in the vast sea of style mats? Why are these singled out even though there are other mats that are rarer and more valuable? And how do you explain to a new player who gets excited about getting a gold mat when they decon the Spleunker trash from Spindlecluth 1 that what they got is barely worth anything and not at all notable?Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Well, considering the knowledge and advice @code65536 has given to the forums community, it’s probably time to return the favor ... especially if it’s a minor programming issue on ZOS’s end.3 -

Consistency; only two style mats in the whole game are gold.
For me, when I go to sell dungeon loot, I have to either destroy or bank glass and mercenary style stones. I can't even sell them for 0.
Making them white quality solves an issue that seems to longer have a reason to exist, as Code pointed out.Edited by NordSwordnBoard on December 27, 2017 9:49PMFear is the Mindkiller0 -
