Lol Anet did you really just copy and paste Bifrost aura?

[aspirine.6852]

Doesnt fit any of my chars so I hope I can turn it off. Would kinda suck if I dont get to use it when you cant switch the effect off..

I love the effect of the amulet!  With all those colors, it should match well with lots of different outfits.

One could also say, that with all those colors it's almost guaranteed to clash with most of the different looks. Although that one is hardly surprising, as legendaries are generally something your look has to be designed around, and not something you can count on for completing your already posessed outfit idea.

It matches none of the edgy Thieves, Revenants and Necros though. Which are the classes I play most, lol.

Good point, I did not consider the edge portion of the community in my thinking.  Tho perhaps if you are sufficiently edge, no one would dare speak up about your choice of rainbows at your back (at least not to your face).  Maybe time to up your edge game.

Another good point.

Op the rainbow is also aurene's aura so id imagine they went with her aura first and foremost.

Logic?! In these forums?! How dare! lol I think it's great but having it be dyeable I think would take it to that next level and would then be included in almost any outfit because why wouldn't her Champion make it their own? 😉 

[Cranky wo Coffee.5914]

I agree with others this is not the same. Also if if you haven't noticed yet, they updated the description on the amulet. 

"The Fulfillment of a Legacy spanning thousands of years flies alongside you"

[Monarc.9726]

I really hope there will be two versions, to have one without an aura. The rainbow aura will not fit with any of my characters aesthetics and I’m probably not the only one. Nothing against rainbows, of course. 🙂 

Scratch that, I just read the new thread on finally being able to turn off legendary trinket auras. So yay for that.

TBH not a fan of how "aggressively rainbowy" the aura is, I would have preferred something more in line with the glow of the scion weapons. 

[AikijinX.6258]

The aura reminds me of unbound magic map currency. 

[Naxos.2503]

I dont really feel like they're the same effects as Bifrost, they're reminescent of it sure, but it's not a copy paste.

I'm not fond of that, since I have no character with Bifrost, or multicolor for that matter. My characters are thematic and could easily pass as lore friendly NPCs, and even Aurene doesn't have a rainbow effect. 

I'm not about to look a gift horse's teeth though. It's still a legendary amulet for basically free.

[Telgum.6071]

Honestly is terrible, could have been something more crystal or dragon like, but is literally a rainbow. Sure if it fits your style is a welcomed effect, but otherwise it simply doesn't fit with anything.

[Ryou.2398]

Honestly it does not bother me, I can think of far worse things that have been neglected, but for some reason everyone starts speaking out about this...

[Abelisk.5148]

It is similar in concept but visually looks different. Bifrost looks more misty and blurry whereas the amulet looks like rainbow smoke

[Qori.9671]

oooh I wonder if you have this and bifrost equipped together if it will lead to the super bifrost aura you used to get when you transmuted bifrost onto other weapons. At the time it was pretty overboard but compared to the crap we see now . It really wouldn't be too much at all =P 

[medivh.4725]

LOL. I would like them to copy paste Inquest MK II weapons to ocean blue and other colors.

[LucianDK.8615]

Dont forget the rainbow cloak and glider.

Edit: I was refering to this package

It is a "free" legendary item. It is a bit shiny for my taste... We will see how it looks. And if I don't like it - there is a easy workaround: Disable the visual effect.

 

 

[Excursion.9752]

No way to sugar coat this. Its awful.

I am very thankful that I already have the other amulet.  I think its time to put a dye channel to the auras. Seriously.

Very Disappointed with this.  I do appreciate the mystic coins along the way, now it feels like they were the real reward.

[Gibson.4036]

I wonder how it will stack with the new Aurene legendaries' aura, if they have one.

[Ogwom.7940]

We don't know what the combat/weapons drawn effect looks like yet.

I am praying it has one.

[Wintermute.5408]

Well, it doesn't. I really expected a little dragon flying around. Nope, just the rainbow. At least it can be turned off.

[Debesyla.7102]

In this topic: people complaining for something they can disable with a single click.

Do y'all also complain for every other in-game effect that isn't in your personal style? 😄

[Gamora.1584]

To be fair you can barely even see the rainbow aura when the amulet is equipped. The other legendary accessories are much more visible, I would love it if it would be more prominent. Those who do not like it can just turn it off. Problem solved.
