I've seen many players with weapons and armor that possess different colored auras. I would like to know how to obtain one myself.

    From Flourish :
    Blue = very common. 3* purple items. many are given out through quests.
    Gold = Lengendary items. not so common. Drops from FB(dungeon) boss at rates such as 0.5%
    Green = HH items. Craft them at the forge with the HH ingredients.
    Red = An archer skill effect. Or 2 lvl 5+ gems forged into the item ( forgot which type) but if you forge 2 same type of lvl 5+ gems into 1 items they glow to their corrosponding colour.

    Completing the FB19 quests, or finding a 2-socket weapon and putting a pair of gems into them would be the least expensive way to get that sort of glow.

    Most glows come from either having a three-star (purple) quality item, or a combined total of 10 soulgem levels in it (at minimum, this would be four level 3 soulgems).

    I ran across someone yesterday who's full armor had a fiery glow to it. Looked awesome. He told me you needed at least 2 of the same soulstone and armor or weapon with sockets. I forgot to ask where to get the stones, but I imagine from the cash shop as I remember seeing some in it yesterday. As of yet, I still have not found any armor or weapons with sockets.

    to have socket stones are a cash shop item dears. but, soulstones you can make or buy off the Jewel crafter NPC in ARCH and in other areas. IT's the combine option. You will have to buy the lower level ones from the regualr craftsman npc and you can combine them into the larger stones.

    The other type of stones you make with the Gem merchant Mirage and Celest

    Last time I tried :

    Weapons always glow blue

    Armors :

    Garnet , +P.Def , red effect
    Sapphire , +M.Def , white effect
    Turquoise , + Mana , blue effect
    Amber , +Eva , yellow effect
    Citrine , +HP , purple effect

    The other stones do not glow.

    Other stones do glow. You just need two of the same type of level five or higher stones imbued in a level five or higher piece of armor.
