Dead Orbit Armor Ornaments... That green is ugly and unaffected by Shaders

Maybe it's supposed to be that way... But I really love the patterns on the armor ornaments... WHY DO THEY HAVE TO BE SNOTTY GREEN?! Plz Bungie. Idk about the other factions but if their colour also doesn't change then fix that too!

  • Adding any vibrant color to the faction or some artsy design to them kind of betrays the feel dead orbit always had. They're not a group of South American guerrillas and they're not Iron Lords or New Monarchy .Back in D1 I always got the sense Dead Orbit and the Fallen had something in common as rag tag scavengers. Black and white conjurs up thoughts of a skeleton and some rugged earth tones (shades of brown) would have been a better choice. Throw in some neon blue lit up parts of the armor like you see on the vanguard season 2 ornaments and it would have been great. The new armor we see in Forsaken that look like cobbled together pieces of a warsat immediately make me think of Dead Orbit and what they should look like. Why they went with green and not a different shade of gray is baffling. You can't say there wouldn't be color contrast because the color of the dragon on the wall banner changes as the sun moves and looks gray for most of the day. It's further baffling they would make a bold color choice like that and not allow a shader to change it. That's the whole point of the shaders!

  • Yup, it’s basically the warlock bond ornament and that’s it for cool armor lol

  • Ive noticed another thing with do shaders. The legendary one (black/grey/white) look solid on the thumbnail but when applied it looks old/worn. The rare emblem of the same color scheme look worn in the thumbnail but is solid when applied.

    • That's why I pledged FWC. Best looking ornaments this season. Ill grind for the GL catalyst next month....but You probably wont' catch me dead wearing any of the DO armor except on my Hunter.

    • Always liked DO as a faction, seems as though the designers are taking the piss as they are getting worse each season. NM has the one of the most complete aesthetics imo, the lion emblem looks rad, but not for me. I hope they extend themselves a little in the future, the nu metal goth camp sh!t is weaksauce and I believe loses its regency as a faction.

      • Exactly why I'm not grinding for Ornaments. 15,000 fully charged melee kills? Nope. Not for that ugly shit.

            • It's snotty green... it's weed green. There are based in Seattle... so go figure. That's why this game is messed up.

            • DO gets green added? Ugh. NM gets orange, but that can be shadered. But some portions, like the whole upper side of the new helmet (basically everything around the visor), cannot. I wish I could make the helmet golden with that raid shader but it would only affect the lower section of the helmet. It's really sad. That helmet is good looking, which says a lot considering I dislike most of the armor in D2. But I can't get rid of that white.

            • Made the same post the other day. I’ve never cared for pieces of armor that have LOCKED colors...Twilight Garrison anyone? I WILL say that set might grow on you. It’s a fantastic looking set in general, especially the cloak and arms. No shader might actually be the best, but I throw the Mercury prophetic on the cloak for that leather look and black neck guard. Actually have Veist Poison on right now which is pretty sweet.

              • At least it’s not a pure goth faction anymore... Is there any buff for using a DO shader and emblem etc

                  Dead Orbit should be Black, white, grey, Silver, maybe tan, maybe brown, dark blue, dark purple, dark tan, dark black, dark white, dark grey, dark silver, dark tan, dark brown....no faded black no oranges, reds, yellows, Greens, or Gold.

                • Dead Orbit should have the Superblack shader. But I agree with OP the Ornaments must change colour - snot green is not a DO colour!

                • I don't like the new colors either and it sucks that you can't change certain elements of the gear. I wish they'd give us a sleek black and/or black and silver. That'd be awesome.
