I'm a fashion addict on this game just because the game let you do almost everything you want. You can use everything on anything, no limitations regarding what type of armor you're wearing (like others MMOs where you can't reskin a Heavy piece into a Medium or Light for exemple). BUT... Why can't i turn off glowing effects such as MoL weapons effects ? Like, just put a hide option at the outfit station, maybe ? Even if it costs 5k gold /weapon, i don't care !
Don't get me wrong, this effect is cool and i like it but on some characters it doesn't fit AT ALL. My main tank is a Nordic with a serious "viking" vibe, but this glowing effect (because i run alkosh) looks weird on this char. Besides it makes the shield looking way too dark, like if you dye it with "Void Pitch" black (not on all shields tho)...
So that's my point : we need an option to hide those effects. I know you can hide it by using an undaunted weapon style (like the ones in crown store or the opal versions) but i don't want to run a style who doesn't match the outfit (yeah because FASHION ftw). Someone in-game told me the legend about "infused weapons don't have the effect", well, yeah, i'll run MoL 549825 times just to get an infused shield because MAYBE it doesn't glow.... Thanks but no thanks.
And even if it's true that's not a solution, it's a bug.
(ps : this post isn't about Alkosh gear, i don't want to know if Alkosh isn't meta anymore, that's not the point. Keep it that way !)
