Default Green Items: New colour

With a death magic necro that sumons many minions or a ranger that just puts up a few Spirits its too easy to just walk by a green item that dropped for you, even if you always look for them in the chat and ot the ground.

I also hardly can resist to pick up that Favorable Winds item over and over again.

brown orange pink grey better?

Yah true, it clashes too much with the friendly names. Maybe brown or something would have been a better colour to choose.

Should've made it dark blue, it would've made it more difficult to spam. Nobody wants to say "SELLING GOOD DARK BLUE ITEMZ CHEAP!!!!1111"

Definately should've been dark blue.

Dark blue = navy.

Orange would be the more uncommon and easy to recognise colour me thinks.

Yes, I agree that orange would be more suitable.
Perhaps very bright orange?

Cheers.

Black or Red would have gone down better. Green gets confusing with the spirits. I sure would love to buy a Black Fellblade lol

Yeah I think Red or Orange would be better and collectors items should've been green.

Except you hold down a different button to highlight enemies. I've almost missed 3 green items holding down ALT cause the green item name gets lost among the green people names. Grrr.

I tend to know the names of my friendlies. The Yakslapper isn't one of them.

Its a different green, much darker, I personally rarely confuse that with a friend or a nearby spirit. However... A The Yakslapper could be a friend... ><
