The current visual for the Luminary is basically an overly bright infusion that covers the guardian in a super bright glow (might be more reasonable without bloom). It’s ugly, and more importantly, it doesn’t match the concept art which makes the radiant shroud look sick. It also doesn’t include the brazier in any way whatsoever, which doesn’t make sense since the brazier is supposed to be the source of the shroud.
Here’s my suggestion:
When the guardian enters shroud, the overly bright blue glow that covers the guardian right now should instead cover the brazier instead. Then, like the concept art shows, a tendril of blue flame should connect that glowing blue brazier to the guardian, acting like a link that transfers flame from the glowing brazier to the guardian. The weapons themselves looked good, but a blue flame-y trail somewhere between the jormag/primordus/soowon aurene variants could finish the look… The weapons themselves looked good, but a blue flame-y trail somewhere between the jormag/primordus/soowon aurene variants could finish the look.
