Player2 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 While we're looking at costumer creator revamps, could we maybe also consider Head Detail 1 and 2 getting an option similar to the asymmetrical gloves and boots but instead of splitting things in half by sides, just give us the option to have 2 whole pieces from Detail 1 and Detail 2? I mean, I have winter themed ice blaster with ear muffs, but that means I cannot equip sun glasses or goggles for going skiing on the slopes (and where ever else ice appears) without losing the ear muffs. Cybernetic eyes? No demon horns for you. Mustache? No cigar. Bubble Helmet? You must be clean-shaven. Retro-SciFi antennae thing? Definitely no goggles. Also, I'm really stoked about the idea of more auras and a greater diversity in the color palette. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Player2 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Most anticipated concept for me in this whole idea is being able to combine halos with other auras. Always hated that I couldn't get glowing eyes with my angelic halo... or any kind of flaming aura (aside from the path aura) with the evil halo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also be great to have a translucency setting, for ghostly characters and custom AE mobs. Having a personalized swatch of custom colors, or (something that has the last 10 colors you've picked) would be sooooo awesome!!! The translucency thing though; as I understand it currently the transparency-opacity of any given power/aura has to do with each power's individual FX particles/textures. For some, the darker a color is, the closer it is to 0 0 0 black, the less visible the FX particles will be, for others (let alone Dark versions of powers) this does not hold as true, but the appearance is still affected by the brightness of a given color value. So trying to add a transparency/alpha option would require extra shenanigans that might look like redoing every particle from the ground up. @archaelia - Torchbearer :: Pure Sunlight | Hyperline | Skittles | Wyndra | Stellagirl | Persephone Yin | Cilatra | Trance Gemini | Cyan Essence | Voidweaver | Zael | Multiplicate | Clanket | thiccuracy | Galaxy Gem | Infinite Rose | Nightflower | Hot Sands | Sandweave | Jetfuel | Plasmahead | Ice Chest | Internal Locus | Danger Dancer | PPD Parks Ranger | FDPC Cryoforce | Black Silver | Vanguard Viper | Arrowdyne | Adam Adrenaline | Violet Velocity | Hypervoltage | Star Huntress | Kat Huntress | Violet Vycanthys | Edge Witch | :.

nexusj13 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Is there a way to add as many colors to auras as the powers have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uden Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 /bump Please. This would be awesome. (Since path auras and regular auras are already able to be mixed simultaneously, I am meaning more than one body/hands/eyes/head/etc. aura) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Since path auras and regular auras are already able to be mixed simultaneously, I am meaning more than one body/hands/eyes/head/etc. aura) it can be done. one of the competing servers allows different auras attached to different costume piece slots. ie. one aura for gloves, another for feet. at least that's how I remember it. haven't been on that server in a very long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... some of us are disinclined to farm enough PAPs to be able to buy those. At 250 apiece, duo'ing 1-star Hard Mode TFs at 2 PAPs a run (especially for soloists who's friends can only play a few times a week for an hour each time), that's a lot of runs (125) to get. And at 3.5M inf' (current rate on AH) for each? That's 875,000,000 inf' per aura. Edited November 23, 2023 by Rudra Edited to add "(especially for soloists...)". And again to add "(125)".

I'm not one of them. More power to them. Buy as many PAP costumes/auras you want. No skin off my back.

All I'm saying is that you shouldn't hold your breath over seeing those costumes/auras becoming common use.

Saiyajinzoningen Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Hey I know this isn't the best spot to ask this but Can you change the colors of those new auras?

BrandX Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Ooooo...would love this! As I use Glow Aura Eyes as a way to do solid color orb for eyes. This would allow me to get some other aura on top of that for a couple of concepts I would've loved to have had to combine with just a Glow Aura Eye option 🙂 I'd have settled for Eyes Permanent and Hands in combat option too!

Veratai Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Hm.. my apologies if i 'used necromancy' on this thread here, but this has definitely caught my attention ^^ and reading from the start of the thread, i see it.. being possible? has there been anything new on this? i would love to have just one more passive aura for the character customization. ..and on a similar topic.. i don't remember if the 'reptilian' head texture always had dark eyes.. they would certainly benefit from regular white ones, or yellow or gold.. but i digress 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More for completing higher difficulty ones. Also, last I checked, they can be bought from the AH for 3,000,000 inf' each. And they randomly drop, albeit very rarely, from enemies defeated in all content. I hear you though. It's not something I'm actively pursuing either since the only guaranteed way of getting them requires I do things I don't have the time to do. They do have 3 badges for them though. One for buying 10 costumes from Benevolabs, one for buying 100 costumes from Benevolabs, and another that simply costs 50 Prismatic Aethers from Benevolabs. Though I get why things like the auras are tier 3 Premium Costumes and cost 250 Prismatic Aethers, I also think that was the dumbest thing in the world to do after taking even the Vanguard costume pieces out from behind their merit wall so players can make whatever characters they have in mind. So after making everything available to players without level requirements or merit purchases, now they add costume pieces, auras rather, that are hidden behind a merit barrier. Makes perfect sense.

TheMoneyMaker Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 With the new single eye aura options it would be great to have more than one aura so you could pick a different one for each eye and maybe even a third option for something else like hands or body or whatever. Or two different hand auras plus more. So many aura combinations would be really cool if they could be used independently with other aura effects. It looks like there's possibility of adding a lot of auras, so maybe a good way to go would be add one aura slot for each area of the body that an aura exists for and you can select something for each area or nothing at all.
