Superblack is tied to Into the Light activities and vendors, Lord Shaxx and Arcite 99-40. Based on the item’s description shown on the devstream, players will need to engage with both vendors to snag the shader. Unlocking Superblack requires two different keys: Shaxx’s Superblack Key Alpha seemingly unlocks after a full rank reset with him, since it appeared as the rank 17 reward during the stream. Arcite’s part of the key, on the other hand, is tied to completing weekly quests. You need both to unlock the shader.<\/p>
Shaders\u2014essentially four-color palettes that change the color of armor and weapons\u2014are one of the main ways of customizing your character, and the right one can make or break an outfit. Since shaders only have four colors, players have limited freedom when choosing how to color a gear piece.<\/p>
Plenty of shaders have black in them, but it’s usually mixed in with other colors. The Jacarina shader\u2014which has black, dark gray, light gray, and white\u2014may seem like a solution, but it doesn’t always work. In some cases, the black doesn’t shade as it’s meant to, and in other scenarios, you may even find light-blue accents on pieces, despite the color not even being in the Jacarina palette. This isn’t exclusive to Jacarina, but it’s likely the most infamous offender.<\/p>
