Misa prime syandana color and brightness question

[BloodfireSouls]

Hi, so, I love my misa prime syandana, and I used to be able to do this sort of gradient effect on it, where you make the energy color of the syandana different from your warframe's energy color, and it somewhat combines the two.  But recently, I've noticed that doesnt happen anymore.  And if it is still doing that, I can't freaking see it because its glowing so brightly, which it also never used to do.  I have not changed display settings in over a year, so I dont know how it got like this, unless there was a change made to the syandana that I somehow missed.

Anyways, My question is, can I still create that gradient effect on it, or was that removed in a change to it that I missed?  And if it can still do the gradient, how do I get it to be less bright so I can see it?  Because right now, not matter what color I set it as, it pretty much looks white.

Edit: I've added a screenshot in case seeing what it's doing can help answer the question at all.

I think the default is not so bright... Check your bloom settings first of all. If those are around the middle section or less, there's something else going on.

Turn down bloom to like 20%
