Why Color them these colors?
- Yellow = CTR. So, charge time...the knight focuses inward on the self. It is the most central thing of any combat, I think.
- Red = DMG. Perks and Buffs use red to indicate increased damage power. This is influenced by how the knight enforces their actions. what part of an item enables a knight to...play the game really? - so it is usually a large area on the outside of the item.
- Blue = Attack Speed. Perks use blue to indicate attack speed. I figure this takes some smarts and finesse, so it's closer to the inside, but not as central as CTR since it's used more often and doesn't require as much focus.
- Orange = Movement Speed. This matches the color you get when you're MSI is boosted (orange thrashing vapor tendril things). It's also the color of the runner guy.
