I dont know if anyone has figured this out , buy why dont bows glow? i mean its not only me my friends and faction members also said they have never seen a glowing bow, except 1 who said he saw a really elite bow that glowed. But why is it that they dont glow that often? I mean xbows glow just fine, look at the trialbow lol So have u seen glowing bows? btw im not talking about shard glows like flames or anything im talking about the normal glows, like the blue ones that u get from weapons from certain quests and the supply stash.

    I don't think anyone has ever figured this out, TBH, but being a sneaky class, would you really want a bright glow on your weapon while trying not to be seen by your PK target?

    They don't glow simply because they don't.

    Assassin daggers don't really glow that well either.

    e/: 2.5 year necro is lovely

    Out of pure curiosity minus the necro. How many weapons actually glow anyways?.....

    A few Legendary(GoldLunar/GoldOHT) and TT pieces but that's about it?

    And does it really matter? -_-

    The thread was about why some have and why some don't. not what colors they are. And some of your gear you listed don't have a glow no matter what.
