Hi everyone,
this idea came to me a few days ago and I wasn’t so sure first if I should post this, but since the idea hasn’t lost its spice for me since then, I think it’s probably really a good one so I’d like to suggest it to you.
A couple of days ago I was googling for the legendary greatsword called “Twilight” which has this, in my opinion, super cool appearance of an clear night sky full of stars.
See this Youtube video for an preview of the greatsword: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plCpEbV158k
So, since I’m also in general an huge fan of the whole concept of gathering unidentified colors and to open them to see what I’ll get to maybe adjust the look of my characters armor, I thought then, it would be super cool if it was possible to craft your own new colors with an craftsman job called “Artist”, collecting different kind of material as with every other job, combine them together to create some new colors or discover some new recipes to make rare or unique colors as well as when you’d hit the Lvl. 400 artist you could create like exotic colors which would just be like the twilight greatsword, not just giving your armor that one color, but it would change the armor piece to look just like the greatsword twilight does if you got the correct color made from the needed incredients.
For example: Lets say if I’d combine some yellow, orange and red colored looking item from some different mobs including an 4th incredient like an magma stone or something like that, you would then get the exotic color called “Blazing Flames”, which when applied to the armor piece , that piece would get an blazing flames appearance of course.
This was not the best example, but I think you’ll get what I mean, I hope…
I think this would add an new great variety to the game and a new chance to personalize his own character in a more unique way again.
