More consistent colors for incarnate salvage

I feel like the colors of the various pieces of special incarnate salvage aren't really representative of the value of the pieces. Here's the changes I'd make:

Shards/Threads: Blue (from white)
Astral Merits: Yellow (from purple)
Empyrean Merits: Orange (from purple)

Having the "thread/shard bound!" message text be blue would also help distinguish it from regular common drops. I know "Enhancement Found!" is also blue, but the new color would be a darker blue like the name of a -1 minion.


Issue 16 made me feel like this.

I can see a slight point in differentiating between Astral and Empyrean merits but they both drop so rarely and only in a few very predictable situations that it seems hardly worth the trouble.

Incarnate Shards and Threads could be a different color, sure.

Personally I would like to be able to turn all of the drop flash texts off, or let me choose which ones I want to see (like, anything Orange and Purple), but we'd need a consistent coloring scheme for them first.

The only change I could see being reasonable, is changing Astral Merits to orange.
