FIX the Vampire tattoos.

Has anyone ever actually addressed this issue? Or has it just been completely ignored every time it’s brought up since launch? I don’t understand this. Most of the playerbase has at least one vampiric character. How can something like this go ignored for so long? It’s one thing to not give people the ability to hide vampirism. But to lazily throw that pale skin palette over the tattoos so they look faded and barely visible in many cases is just absurd. ESPECIALLY since you’re selling vampirism. It’s a crown store product, and one that you can’t even preview. And why the hell is the Buoyant Armiger face tattoo working as intended, but nothing else? As in, the BA face tattooo shows up unfaded, but the BA body tattoo is faded. So now in addition to the body tattoo being faded, the body and face tattoos won’t match and look ridiculous for vampires. “Whose incompetence led to this folly?!”

I mean seriously, does there have to be a riot for you to fix this? Or are you saving it for that big QoL update to get extra props? Because you don’t deserve props for something that should’ve been fixed a long time ago. You deserve “it’s about damn time.”

    To answer your question... It's been utterly ignored every single time it's been brought up. And it's been brought up more times than I can count.

    And all they'd have to do, is make sure that the tattoos are the highest layer of the applicable body skin layers.

    That's all...

    well, perhaps an "if skin = vampire, then tattoo = last layer" tattoos might look weird on the other skins if they are last layer

    It is already done with the Bouyant Armiger body and facial tattoos, but not the others for some reason..

    ZOS could care less about many players issues and this is one of them. If they did it would of been fixed at long time ago or a least had at comment in reference to the issue made by the ZOS staff.

    I think it makes sense, vampires are dead pale bodies, which makes the tatoo colors weaker, compared to living bodies/mortals

    but tattoos aren't fed by biological systems. if you flay a tattooed corpse and dry it, the tattoo doesn't fade.

    just trust me on that one ;)

    If they fix it, the game might explode. (Kind of kidding) But as someone with 12 vampires, I feel your pain. That said, I still use the body tattoos to hide some of the veins on my girls in short shorts.

    All that said.. yes it'd be really nice if the team could apply a fix to cause the tattoos to display their full glory.

    They sell tattoos for real money in the crown store. This is an actual issue. People pay money for ***.

    I never noticed this since my Dunmer Vamp has been rocking Buoyant Armiger forever.
    Got myself the Inferno Ink body and face tats for him (he's a MagDK) and I might as well not have bothered.

    This bug is getting old, 2014 been awhile now.


    Vampire effect layer is on top of the Tattoo and Face Paints instead of being under making them almost invisible.

    How it work : Vampire effect > Paint > Base skin

    How it should work : Paint > Vampire Effect > Base Skin

    While we could argue the color of tattoos on dead flesh, there is absolutely no logic behind having textures which are obviously meant to be painted on to become pale as well. It's paint/mud/coal. There is no reason whatsoever for it to get washed out. Same for makeup.

    Thank you, I really cannot stand the bloody vampire skin on almost any character but the inability to at least edit my horrible appearance with a tattoo so obnoxious that I'm forced to just throw a piece of headware over every vampire character.

    constant source of annoyance.

    Tattoo artists practice on pig skin because it's similar to human. That's dead flesh, and the ink still holds. Having pale skin like a vampire should make your tattoos more vibrant not faded...

    Yeah I find that super annoying. Because it tells me they CAN make it so that things overlay the vamp skin. And honestly, the makeup from char gen SHOULD overlay it every bit as much as tats should. This would not be all that hard to fix. The various "lashes" they've come out with also overlay the vamp skin and DON'T remove lipstick/any other makeup so there's no reason why the lipstick from the crown store should be doing that either. And that said, they realllly need to come out with more "lashes" that include eyeliners/eyeshadows that DON'T look like they were specifically designed for drag queens! Oh and some eyelashes for MALE characters as well! I'm tired of seeing so many eyelash-less freaks! LOL

    Yeah but why go from black to random blue and pink? The only difference in the two pics of my bosmer is the alliance war hood. I had the lashes on in both pictures but they randomly change colors. What the fudge is up with that?
