I was reminiscing about that whole fire t3 re-skin fiasco from a while back and thought ,what if , we could re-skin or add effects to our weapons and armor ourselves using lodestones.
For example , you craft a sword using the ori sword , hilt , blade , inscription and a glacial lodestone and BAM – frosty pearl sword -either an icy reskin or just some icy particle effects.
The same process could be used when crafting armor.Just imagine your favorite set but with the elemental effects of your choice.
Already got gear ? No problem ! just toss’em in the mystic forge along with the appropriate lodestone for the desired effect.

Below I have attached an incredibly kittenty drawing to exemplify my idea

So do I – it’s simple as an idea and fits in pretty well with the way the game is right now. There would be a lot of artwork to be done, but there’s still potential in this.

Nice one

Simple yet effective.

But prepare for 250 stacks of everything plus some 100 time gated mats for a “raw sword”, then 250 obsi shards, 100 time gated mats, 50 laurels for the prticles

Such a pretty drawing.

I want to use lodestones to change my Incinerator to blue fire.

Wouldn’t it be a lot of work for them though?
Might be nice, certainly could be just amaizing on some weapons.
