Guild Wars 2

Okey, just wanna give you a heads up about my native language not being english so please bear with me if you don´t understand certain parts.

At first when I was playing my mesmer I never really cared about it till later levels. But the purple(ish) theme on them isn´t really that nice. Your phantasms being purple and the skill effects also having purple animation effects can be quite tiresome at times.
So why not give the mesmers a certain item that changes the effects so the phantasms become red(or any other colour) instead and also the skill effects. This item could be bought through gemstore or be a certain drop from Black Lion chests or whatever.

This is the first idea I came up with and I am surely not the only one who´s prolly came up with it. If this suggestion would wake some attention then why not also include the other professions skill effects!

Another example could be to add an item that changes the guardians skill effects so they look more divine like(adding bright colours when they are being used and such).

These effects would of course not change any mechanisms in the skills. They would just be added as a vanity thing. Making you feel your character is more unique when it comes to looks and adds more flavour to those who likes to roleplay.

Would have a much greater feel if you were in a party with two mesmers. While one would have the CoF gear and have flame-like skill animations and the other crow-like animations with the TA gear(i.e when his copies dies, instead of purple butterflies popping up from the copies there could be black crows instead)

Of course these things should have some boundaries so it doesnt go over the top. Would be kinda ridiculous if an engineer had baby toy-like animations for example. It would also have to leave some space for other future professions so they could have their own themes.

Please add more ideas to this, or just write if you do not agree with this idea and explain why.

Edit: Another way of obtaining these effects could also be by farming materials to create them in the mystic forge, just like legendaries.
