My idea for an exotic shader would be shaders that provide a glowing effect. My idea for a couple of exotic shaders would be the animated glowing effect from the original Solstice of Heroes armor from Warmind. The shader would consist of a black or white primary (based on light/darkness), secondary based on the element, and tertiary or accent being the glow effect itself. For example:
Solar: White primary, orange secondary, solar glow effect accent
Arc: White primary, cyan secondary, arc glow effect accent
Void: White primary, purple secondary, void glow effect accent
Stasis: Black primary, light navy secondary, stasis glow effect accent
Another contender for an exotic shader and great example for the idea is bringing back GlowHoo and the effects of Chroma as a shader.
I personally would love the idea of slapping these shaders onto my armor and weapons of choice with transmog coming in season 14.

When I first got the Black Armory Forge mods, I was slightly disappointed that they weren't classified as exotic due to their animations/glows; I can't think of any other shaders that are animated.
