Why do Shaders look so bad?

Bungie I get you wanted customization to be a reason to play more, but I absolutely hate most of the shaders. Some of these color schemes look so promising, and then end up sucking. 1) Warlock exotic helmets and helmets in general look messed up with most. Nothing says “I can see” like a shiny face plate. It just throws off a lot of schemes if you ask me. 2) What’s with Hunter cloaks? Why do they never appear the same color as the shader? I mean ever. It’s nuts that they cloak and shader can look nothing alike. What’s the point of coloring it? 3) ‘Most of the shaders just are ugly, and suck. I mean one of the shaders is actually poo brown and pee yellow! Please fix the shaders and what they color, because I have no desire to farm them when they look so gross in their current state.

  • I agree! With the exception of Atlantis Wash, Gold Trace and Dawning Brilliance, which sort of look Okay on somethings, majority of the shaders are a -blam!-ing joke! I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW BUNGIE HAVENT CHANGED THEM YET!! I get sad when I remeber D1 shaders. Middas, for instance. 1 Shader from D1 that shits all over every single shader available in D2. Just disappointing. LISTEN TO YOUR FANBASE!!!!

  • The Metro Shift shader from Eververse, and the New Monarchy shaders, look good on almost everything.

    • I tried a shader the other day, blue, grey, silver and white I think it was and when I looked at it, it was mainly red. What the -blam!- is that all about.

      List of good shaders I've seen: [b]Fruminous Blue[/b], [b]Artic Pearl[/b], [b]Nebula Rose[/b], [b]Indigo Matrix[/b] (which seems pretty popular in the game so far), [b]Dawn and Dusk[/b] (this one is a real hit or miss, depending on the armor set), [b]Veist Poison Shimmer[/b], and [b]Noble Constant Red[/b] to name a few. When it comes to weapons I tend to try more of the Rare colors out , but armor seems to be nice mainly with legendary.

      • Bruh. For the hunter cloak choose a different shader than the armor. You can get a better match this way.

      • 90% of D2 shaders are lackluster for armor. Especially compared to Destiny 1. That being said the game has only been out 2 months so there will be more shaders coming. Some of the crappy shaders look better on guns and ships too.

      • Metro Shift is my favorite so far it's one of the nicest looking ones. Black, silver and blue. Unfortunately it's a EV shader. Either have to buy silver or if you're lucky you might get it from a bright engram. Not sure if it still drops as it got removed from the store with Tuesdays refresh. Hoping it returns, I want to stock on it even if it may take a while. I find the legendary shaders are more brighter where the most common ones look kinda washed out. Shaders work a little differently to what I thought.

          • This wouldn't be a problem if we could make custom shaders. I'd pay a good amount of glimmer for that.

              I hear what you are saying about Hunter Cloaks. However I would say what you have to do is not go with the "one shader fits all" scenario. In order to get the right look for my hunter I had to use I believe 4 different shaders (maybe 3 I can't remember) to get each piece to go together. Just checked it took 4 different shaders to get the look for my armor. One single shader wouldn't have done the job as each shader affects armor differently.

            • Whats with some hunter cloaks not even changing color.. TRIALS CLOAKS COME TO MIND: That HORRENDOUS aqua blue doesn't go with everything BUNGO! I could see something neutral like black or white staying on a piece of armour or weapon..but that teal blue or whatever color it is?? "I'm just gonna black out my armour, oops no i can't got this lame ass bright blue patch on my back that didn't change WITH MY DESIGNATED SHADER!!" >_>

            • Eye of the beholder I suppose. Most legendary shaders look nice on your guardian. But some common shaders very nice on weapons.

            • There are great shaders, not all of them suck. My point is that most of them aren’t great at all, and some of the quadrant picking for certain items is terrible. It especially shows in hunter capes and warlock helms. You could have great shaders, but then all of a sudden BAM, out of the blue the game decides that the cape should use the same look as the rest of the shader.

            • [quote]Most of the shaders just are ugly, and suck[/quote] This isn't an accident. Must suck to be on the ugly shader team while someone else is making good shaders for Eververse.

                • Do all the shaders work the same? Ive noticed when previewing, you see certain sectors of the shader color certain sectors. But if you preview different shaders, its not always the same quadrant that contributes to a particular item/area. Its not a big deal, because you can preview anyway. But it just seems bizarre. Anyone else notice this?

                  • The only shaders I've liked so far have been from the faction rally. Mostly the New Monarchy shader that makes my Titan look like Iron Man.
