Tints for Tyrants

Hey guys,

So you know how when Hard Magnus dies and drops a bunch of capes there is like no way to tell which are for which class.

Why not have all the tyrant (and maybe nova) items have tints like the Gollux items?

For Gollux each tier has their own tint:
Superior is light green.
Reinforced is light blue.
etc.

I was thinking we give tyrants similar tints like maybe:
Red for warriors
Green for archers
Dark Blue for mages
Purple or some other dark color for thieves
Light blue for Pirates?

Something like that.

This would help mostly people who give out their capes in normal servers and people who do HMag carries in Reboot as well.

The change wouldn't be that big either, just editing the sprites very light.

What do you guys think?

    The capes are instanced (at least in reboot) so everyone gets a cape for their class...So I would say it really doesn't matter.

    They're not on the normal servers, having an indicator of their job branch would be really helpful when trying to get multiple people a cape for their class in the same run.

    As for the colours that would be used, I think having a consistent theme would be nice and give them the same colours as the upcoming union indicators.
    So Red/Green/Light Blue/Purple/Grey would work quite well I'd say.

    It would help distinguish them in the coin shop as well, so people don't have double/triple check they don't buy the wrong one. Normal servers, as far as I've seen aren't instanced.

    Maybe instead of tints how about being able to hover over items with a mouse to see what it actually is when it's dropped on the ground?

    It'll not only help for Tyrants, but many other look-a-like items such as recipes.

    We can also make another change that if the equipment is not for your class it'll have an indicator while it's on the floor.

    One method to make sure you don't take the wrong cape is to use pet item ignore. I know it's not a good solution but it is usable until any changes are made.
