more eye candy inc abyssal View attachment 26252
check the hue on that Abyssal, ive seen a couple of them that are diffent hue IDs.
i ask because there are a couple other hues that are looking like Abyssal but i havnt seen one in checker yet like yours.
so im wondering if that is 2707 or 2075 (abyssal) or another hue altogether.

To find the hue color you have to use the EC correct and pincos? I think i found a glacial one!
Don't need Pinco UI now as the HUE ID tool is built into the new default EC.

If you open it up and click on "actions" then go to the "other" menu its on there down near the bottom. "Get Hue ID". Drag this to a tool bar and away you go.

you need to do it in the Enhanced Client, there is a action you can set to a hotkey to check hue id

In the Enhanced client, to get the Hue ID it is ESC ->Actions -> arrow over to "Other" -> drag " Get Hue ID" out to a hot bar.

as any0ne assembled all 8 rare colours for the new styles box;;;;i see the rare so called colours are the same as last year yes ...ie...mesanna said 2707 and 2715 which both were rare last year

im guessing its the same 8 colours as last year for the ''last year style boxes''...

guess were looking for the same 8 colours...common sense would suggest...[BELOW]

When I get my things together and Pinco's gets all fixed.... I'll see what I can do about helping you with that. I do have at least one of the "Abyssal" Black.. thinking I have 2 of them but I think they are both the same box style. Can't remember. Anyway I wrote down all the boxes I had and I have a LOT of the new box styles. Which by the way @Mesanna I really LOVE the new boxes. The bows and everything are wonderful! Great job team!

There's no other way to get the hue #'s other then downloading the EC? I think I have 3 of the older rare ones but I can't tell from the pictures :/

Just to let everyone know, in the picture above there are two of the rare hues (2707 and 2715) there are 6 more not listed. So 8 hues total are rare this year.

Mesanna

Cool !

Just to know, the 8 rare hues are all of the same rarity odds or are there some rarer then others within those 8 rare hues ?

Thanks !

Mesanna said they were the same hues as last year..so 1918, 2025, 2640, 2707, 2715, 2722, 2726 and one other..the last 2 rows have the same number, can someone double-check that?
So it's not anything above 999, there are only 8 rare hues.

Thanks Mesanna for the info :)

Question about the Enhanced Client hue picker....

Since each box has also a ribbon which is generally of a different color then the actual box, is the targeting of the box much important when trying to determine the correct hue since, if mistargeted, one might actually determine the ribbon hue number and not the actual box hue number ?

So is it confirmed that the 8 rare hues for this year are the exact same as last year ?


- 1918
- 2025
- 2640
- 2707
- 2715
- 2722
- 2726
- 2728 ?

I understand that there are rare hues, but I have a darker and a lighter colored gold wave style box. Will post later... If gold is rare, yet there are several colors, is one gold box not rare?

Does this question make sense... Maybe pics later will help... Currently working.

keep in mind that the Hue is rare and of that there is 8 of them.
from there you can receive the box in a couple different configurations.
the normal box, the long box in either direction and then the 2 round ones (gold ribbon and green) then the checker, the cross and the loop (or as some call them "Swirly", "Diamond", and "Checkerboard") - any of which in the rare hue.
so for each of the rare hues there could be....... (math in effect - caution!)...... 8 - so if you wanted say all of the boxes of one hue youd need all 8 and if you wanted all the boxes in the 8 hues youd need all 36.

@Siabra im rather surprised they let you do a buy/trade/sell post on uhall, mark that up as not enough mods i guess, but you may wanna curtail your buy/sell/trade posts to the buy/sale/trade forum, might save ya the lashing if they catch ya.
