upgrading rare helm change the color?

I upgraded my ethereal blue colored rare barb helm to the exceptional version, but the color it changes to a normal color, but when I wear it, it still becomes blue, can anyone explain??

I have a feeling it's because the exceptional version is defaulted not to have any color (although I can't imagine why)... pray tell which helm it is?

Well, it's always the "first" mod that determines color. Maybe when you upgrade it, "upgraded" (colorless) becomes the "first" mod? That's a good question and it would require lots of upgrading of rares to be sure of the cause.

Edit: Barring a good explanation: "it's a feature."

^ But then it's blue when he wears it. It can't be 'colourless'. I've upped lots of rares, and I've never seen the initial colour change before. I know some items are default colourless in the inventory (e.g. Assault Helmet) but show up in colour when you wear them, but this is the first time I've heard a coloured --> colourless. :scratchhead:
