Armor sparkling instead of glowing?

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, please do move it to the correct section if this one is wrong.

I had my lvl 50 armor top and added 2 lvl 5 HP shards to it. The armor glowed purple/pink.

Now today I added a lvl 5 Phy Def shard to it. The glow then was replaced by a sparkle:

What exactly triggers this? How come I haven't seen this before in the game? o_O
I have seen armors before that had 3 slots and 2 of the same shard and 1 different one but they still only glowed and did not sparkly.

And no this is NOT a buff.

    2 (or more) different Gr5 (or higher) stones create a sparkle (all same type causes glow)

    it doesnt matter what type they are

    when you get 2 or more gr8 stones you get some lightning effects

    I have seen armors before that had 3 slots and 2 of the same shard and 1 different one but they still only glowed and did not sparkly.

    nope... that would sparkle

    re-edit: - perhaps if the 2 same were gr5 (or above) and the odd one was Gr4 (or below) it would glow

    Lightning is 4 g8 hp stones in the same armor. 4 of other g8 stones create different effects.

    EDIT: Different stones = different glows. But when you mix up the stones you get a sparkle.

    never seen a sparkle before, but that sounds cool !!!

    anyway, i think that 2 lvl5 stones will give you a glow is just a gimmick...

    yesterday i got lucky manufacturing a double axes, i got a purple 3start, i just added 1 single lvl5 stone and it was glowing.

    NO.
    purple/3 star weap glow withou any gems, and glows same unless u have 2 gr7 or more gem in to which adds a color ring.
    Armors need 2 gr5 above to glow need 4 gr8 shards to have that special glow, for exp thunder.

    That's one of the two "hidden" hair textures. Basically if you click around that blank spot for hair textures it should eventually changed to two new ones.

    One has a braided look on one basically becomes multi colored. My hair for example is blue/green
