Hello everyone!
I logged into Destiny 2 last Tuesday (19th Nov) after Weekly Reset (and a new patch, I suppose?) and when I checked my Guardian, the cloak I've been using for [i]months[/i] was suddenly ... glowing. It didn't do that before. I checked and double-checked, but it had the [i]same[/i] shader equipped as before.
But now this shader suddenly made it glow - or more specifically: it didn't [i]take[/i] the glow [i]away[/i] anymore.
See, I am using the Ghosts of the Deep cloak, and the whole GotD armor set already has an animated glow as it is. I was using older shaders (specifically Mad Monk in this case) to take away that glow and turn it into a solid colour to make it fit with all the other armor pieces. [i]Many[/i] older shaders used to turn the cloak into a solid (black) colour (e.g. Bumblebee), I tested it back when I was looking for a fitting shader - but now they [i]all[/i] have a glow all of the sudden, meaning there is no shader left to turn this armor into a solid colour and make it match with other armor pieces. It just stands out too much with its glow and animation.
Since we all know [i]fashion is endgame[/i], I am really sad and disappointed with this simple change messing with my favourite outfit :( I know glows are cool, but I really love the GotD cloak and cannot match it with the rest of my armor without taking away the glow first. I was so, so happy with how my Guardian looked before the changes (I spent [i]years[/i] getting it right) and now I am so disappointed I've stopped playing :/
Is this a bug? Is this intentional? Are there other ways to turn the glow into a dark solid colour? I have not read or heard anything about this anywhere else so this is literally my last hope. Help is appreciated <3
(I tried to add a link to an image with a before-after screenshot, I hope it's working. And sorry for the grainy low-quality "before" picture, I literally couldn't find one single good screenshot of my outfit before the glow was added ;-;)
