Phasing Interaction With Master Soulstealer Body Armour MTX is messed up

Prior to 3.6, phasing made the Master Soulstealer body armour into a ghostly version of itself, which looked pretty nice, and added a blue glow to the character, Unfortunately, I do not have very good screenshots, as I was not expecting the graphics to change with this patch, but here's what I have:



Note the way the back of the armour looks, draped down behind the character; this is representative of how the armour was handled in phasing previously. Ignore the weird dark spot on the left side of the azurite back attachment; I believe that's my canary pet getting in the way (since I don't see it elsewhere in the screenshot).

However, the graphical changes to phasing have really ruined the way the MTX looks (and as you can see, it's not the only MTX whose look was ruined, but it's the worst-affected):



The blue glow is still there but the armour is no longer clearly defined and is instead just a riot of shimmery blue above the character's legs, and missing below. If you look closely you can see the hem of the armour draping down by the character's left ankle (on the right in the image), but it is nowhere near as visible as it was.

I realize this may not be a bug but a "feature," but if so it's one that ruined a feature I had previously liked. I much preferred the look of phasing in the previous patch, which is frustrating because my preferred build is perma-phasing (even in town).

EDIT: I should also mention that everything looks exactly the same as it did last league when Phase Run is active; this only affects the look of regular phasing.
