After looking over the sword texture a little bit I saw that "unpleasant greyish" that you pointed out. Thanks for telling me about that because I wouldn't have noticed it before hand. I'll try the original colors to see how they blend and post the new sword color here when I come around to doing it.
Ever since I found the original Fade PvP Pack, I found the unique simplified gradient a very pleasing asthetic. The four colors of the diamond gear fit very well with both Minecraft's general art style while still being vibrant and eye-catching. Eventually I decided to extend the style to a full texture pack (just for my personal use), and I have so far been very pleased with the result. However, one major thing I noticed during this process that I can see in your revamp post as well - trying to use a computer to gradient the magenta into the cyan creates an unpleasant gray-ish color between them. It rather undermines the whole simple and vibrant aesthetic. I would advise sticking with the old colors to some degree to prevent this from occurring. Nevertheless, it is still a good pack, and I know that whatever you make will be a worthy revamp,
