Titled or Icons of weapons/armor upgrades (Discussion)

When you view a weapon or armor that has been upgraded, there is no title as to "handle, tang, grip, wrapping, insignia, rune," etc. which leads the player to testing trial and error to making/improving new buffed armor or altered weapons. Icons of the actual upgrade/magic item, etc. on that particular item would be a great help! and make identification at a glance much much simpler for the players.


Why this is a good idea
  •  No more taking a horrible risk trying to salvage an upgrade from one item, or wasting time applying/searching for upgrade (A) when you actually needed (B) hilt/tang - handle wrapping/staff end, as examples. No real extra work as the images icons of these upgrades already exist.
  •  Being able to see what upgrades your items & armor has at a glance would be a great help to both the seasoned and novice players.
Why it may not work out
  •  Just READ carefully, the insignia is the prefix, the rune is the suffix! (e.g. Survivor Sunspear Leggings of Major Vigor) same goes 4 weapon upgrqades, their names show what they r (e.g. Icy Dagger Tang)
