Hi all,

 

PhurieDae has done a re-design of the icons that represent the different item types for the app, but we're also planning to add them to the browser version of the game too. The new icons are higher resolution so they will work better with the app as well.

 

Old Style

New Style (note the white will be transparent within the game)

What do you think? Can you tell which each of them are? :D

There appears to be two versions of recipe & potion.  It's not at all clear what they refer to.

 

For rune and shield there are three icons.  I think I know which is shield though it could be one of the two I think are runes.

 

The chest & gift box -- is it a gift box as in gift from HCS, e.g.  Xmas gift?  Is the chest a fragment chest or any chest, e.g. donation chest.

From top left to right they are:

 

Amulet

Armor

Boots

Component

Composed Potion

Frag Stash

Chest (this icon may change)

Gloves

Helmet

Potion

Quest Item

Recipe

Resource

Ring

Rune

Shield

Weapon

I can tell: armor, ring, boots, gloves, helm, amy, weapon, frag chest, potion, and rune.

 

I think the leaves are a rune, the scrolls are recipes, the gift box is just that.

 

I only had two I went.. Eh.. On.

 

I pretty much like them though.

The art looks great! Shield doesnt really look like a shield to me to be completely honest, rune is a tad confusing as well, kinda looks like a few quest items in game rather than the in game runes. Component art was always confusing to me, I would have made it like a gear or something like that. If you could, putting some kind of "blueprint" design on the Recipe icon would help people differentiate it from Quest Item better. Im also assuming you plan to keep them in the same order though and not change the icon order to be alphabetical? I think the current order makes much more sense personally. 

 

It would also be really beneficial if you could somehow further sort composing potions by buffs, kinda like how you can in the AH. As in, I could select "Keen Edge" and only potions that include Keen Edge will become visible. Consider that some guilds have hundreds of composing potions in their guild store spanning many pages. Right now the potions are really only sorted temporally, as in what was recalled first to last. This makes organization somewhat hard, especially since many different players may put potions in there. This addition would make finding the right potion much easier and quicker, as Im only assuming its gonna be harder to find them when it goes on the mobile platform. Just a suggestion to make the GS interface better!

I had trouble telling which icon the shield was, thought the "Component" icon was it

 

maybe if possible change the shield to something like this to make it easier to spot:

We've tweaked the icons ready for the next app update and we'll also be putting them into the browser version soon as well :)
