Glowing weapons

Recommended Posts

Make weapons glow based on the enchant power for damage/heal based enchantments.

Flaming Aura - Orange Glow
Bloodthirst - Red Glow
Frostbrand - Blue glow
Life Transfer - Green glow
Rotten Touch - Black Glow
Venom - Purple Glow

Would be a nice addition, doesn't have to be a strong glow, could even just be a feint color. Would help in combat to see what enchantment you're fighting against. Glow/Color can be based on the strength of the enchantment. 
Mainly for cosmetic happiness tho

+1 for PVE, but I'll bet the PVP crowd would rather you be surprised when they hit you.

No opinion on PvP side

 

but +1 for PvE, more eye candy!

Maybe it appears above a certain enchant strength to keep it somewhat rare/meaningful?  Or not, just a thought.

350% more deaths at rifts because green is the worst color : D

Also more lag at any event

Not a bad idea, but if you're doing it, please make it that it can be disabled in graphic options, and only when in combat stance

I don't think pvpers would care if it showed up, as soon as you get hit it will tell you anyway or their life will go up :)

+1 but not the way suggested, since metal type already does that.  Rather a faint but noticeable glow around the blade edges or uh... blunt edges for mauls

I'd like this, only if we got a more interesting fighting mechanic, standing there... with a glowing weapon... I feel like that development time can be used better elsewhere +-1

maybe orange glow for flaming aura so that bloodthirst can be red? more saber options.

+1, as long as it only shows up with higher character animations etc.
