Guild Wars 2

I’ve come up with this idea and thought I’d make a suggestion because I’m sure many would appreciate such feature.

Alot of us have a favourite class we main in game. But sometimes, we either never liked, or get tired of the colour of the visual effect of the skills the class has, or perhaps they don’t match at all the colour of the armor we are wearing.
Let’s say it, if you want your Guardian to look like some dark knight, a nice red on those skills would be much more fitting than the regular blue! And a blue colour set for those who play Mesmer but don’t really like the pink.

What I’m proposing now is the addition of a consumable item that allows players to change the default colour of skills and any particle effects tied to the class in another predetermined colour. Something like this…

Mesmer – Deep Blue Effects set
Consumable / One-time use
Changes permanently the colour of visual effects generated by skills to Deep Blue.
Cost: 800 gems.

Then to revert to the original state, another gem store consumable could be required to do so.
I specified Mesmers and Guardians because they have skills with the most striking colours, but I’m sure such item could be adapted even to other classes. Like with weapon swing / projectile trails and such, still without altering the special effects given by legendary weapons equipped, of course.
After all, color hue should be relatively easy to change even on particle effects. It requires a bit of work, yes, but still easily viable.

Great idea! More character customization would be lovely in that area. Similar to my ideas on more finisher customizations: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/pvp/New-finisher-animations/first#post2877735
