Question Title: Why do the hollows, ravs, crystal items and shadows not stay transparent?
Category: Graphics
Question: Since I obtained the crystal shield this opaque/transluscent inconsistancy is really starting to annoy me...or maybe I just need more sleep =P.

What factors keep changing this from minute to minute and will it be corrected?

btw, we cannot thank you enough for this q&a; board=)

Answer: There is a bug somewhere in our translucency code.

It's been bugged, but is fairly low priority for a fix. I hope we can get a fix sometime soon, however.
