Thread: Red glow?

  1. #1

    Red glow?

    Does anyone know what it means when you see loot, whether white, green, blue, etc and you see that color glow but ALSO a mysterious red glow? I see this pretty randomly and its often just a white item to pickup, but sometimes other colors. I am really curious what the red glow means. Thanks.

    White, green, blue, purple, orange color is the rarity.
    Where as the flashing red is supposed to be reserved for the super weapons.
    For some reason regular white guns are showing up with the red flashy.
    Haven't seen any official word on why this is.

    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    Nope, shows up on plain weapons.

    Can't be, I've see it on plain weapons that fire regular rounds.

    Yeah that's the way I understand it is supposed to be. I mean sometimes I see the red and its a super weapon. Other times (the times I am asking about with the post) I see the red glow on normal weapons of all kinds. Maybe the answer is as simple as saying its a glitch.

    PS; I wanna thank you for making the very first response to my thread both direct to the point and helpful. That often isn't the case. Very cool of you.
