am I the only one that gets super confused when a game uses colors to show stuff like rarity of an item? like how am I supposed to remember whether blue or red is better? and where does green come in? just put a number or a letter those actually have an established order

@noiob
You are not alone at all. Like not in the slightest.

The brief period I played WoW, I went on a low level raid with a friend who was showing me how to play and my first run through got a purple rarity parrot pet she had been wanting forever and had never gotten at all.

I of course didn't realise that purple is like ultra ultra rare. So I popped that pet and bound it to me because yay birb.

Whoops

@noiob Similar with generic text labels (e.g. "Legendary" vs. "Mythical")

@elomatreb it's even worse when the translation has them mixed up
