I did not want a purple weapon. I wanted a blue weapon.
You can’t change the COLOR of a weapon people spent months working on. I happen to HATE the color purple. It’s the reason I don’t have a Mesmer.
I chose Meteorlogicus because it was blue.
Changing an item’s COLOR like this is completely unprecedented. This is not a mere effects improvement— this is a change to the fundamental aesthetics of the item.
I’m sure some people will LOVE the new purple. But you can’t just change something that people have already bought based on its previous appearance.
Maybe you can make Meteorlogicus special by giving us the option of putting it in the mystic forge with 3 purple dyes, and THEN we get the version that turns purple at Night.
But please don’t force it on me. This patch will ruin my favorite item and achievement I’ve had in GW2. Yeah, I hate purple that much.
It would be unfair to just change it for the people who spent their time to make it; they chose it for what it looked like; not for what it’s ‘going’ to look like if that is the case.
Blue is certainly a much better color than purple. If this did take place, I’m sure there will be many complaints.
Maybe it’s just the lighting in the picture, there are times when my sisters bifrost looks gold & other times it looks grey & the aurora glow looks more white & other times very vivid aurora…..

I hope that’s just it in your case, the lighting.
Thanks! Sadly, however, it is not the lighting— Meteorlogicus does not look like that anywhere in the game currently.

Hi,
I planed carefuly my colors and style. In my case is white+light blue (NOT VIOLET)
I am owner of Meteorologicus that now perfectly fits my style (My zephyrite cap has same light blue effect).
When I decided to make weapon for ~1000g and perfectly match style, I do not want to wake up someday and see my perfect style drasticly violated by “upgrades”. Purple/pink aura will ruin everything.
Please inform person responsible for this change that changing color scheme shouldnt be part of upgrade. (or change to light blue/little darker blue(not pink) nighttime). Please hold and rethink this change.
Yeah, I have that helmet with Meteorlogius too, + glowing blue on my bracers, you can see on this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4qA7Z2VqcY
But still, i like the purple too. It would be really good if we could choose the colour. As I said above, ability to dye weapons, at least legendarys, would be super awesome. Everyone with a legendary could have his unique coloured legendary!
