Ok, this is a a silver shader I made (on the bracelet edges). it has a 0.5 softness in the reflect node and yet I still get this fully saturated mirror reflection where the bracelet turns toward the center bit with the color. Granted, I'm using the actual IOR of silver, which is 0.18 - just in case that may be causing it as well. FWIW, I tried using 0.99 and I sort of get the same thing ;).

I don't want that hard reflection like that....is there anything I can do to minimize it? If it's by the raybias, how do I figure out what number to put in there?

Thanks a bunch.
