A detailed complaint about Deca's sprites

First of all I want to thank Deca for dedicating all their time for us, the game is back on the road and the community is satisfied... except for 1 part.

The sprites.

First of all the 16x16 skins. I know there has been a lot of drama about this and I vouch for it.

Next we'll have the deca ring, I think it looks well made but I have a feeling that It doesn't fit Rotmg at all. Let me explain. If you look at every other equipements sprites, the designers used 4-5 MAX colors to make it look simple, I just dont get that feeling of simplicity when I look at the deca ring.

Next we have the UB's recolor. Honestly, I dont like it. Apart from the yellow, I think it was a good change, but the shading INSIDE the ring looks totally horrible, the contrast of the ring is too high. My suggestion would be to keep the new yellow color and add the old shading back to the rings.

Ivory / Olive: No comment.

The Oryx set: The old oryx sword looked bad and rushed, Im glad you made a new sprite for it but still, I don't like the current one, the new sprite doesn't look "majestic" enough, an oryx sword is supposed to be special right?

The rest of the set looks pretty well made apart from the ring that looks rushed and uninteresting to look at.

Fairy plate. I really loved the old fairy plate, the shading was simple and the colors were going well together, honestly I'm still confused about that sudden change you guys made, the new one has way too much shading.

Sword of illumination: Same as dblade, same projectiles as the previous one, meh. what you could have changed with the reskin is the blade itself, make it look like a double blade and not a normal dblade (imagine a dblade with a hole inside the sword) I think it could be pretty. As of now, Stand by.

Morning Star. No, just no. The sprite looks really unfitting and the shading looks ugly, blue and yellow is a combinaison thats hard to use and you have failed using it. However, the projectile looks awesome.

Pixie sword is the same deal as Fairy plate the new one looks weird.

That's all for now, what do you guys think about the new skins? Do you agree with my points? If not discuss in the comments section.
