Guild Wars 2

Ok so this is the second set of armor released with weapon skins to match. I think that would be great if you could dye the weapons to match what you dye the armor.
I mean with the weapon sets, at the moment, you’d have to keep the color of the armor if you wanted to match them up. Is this a prelude to the future will we get to dye our back items and weapons in the near future. I’d hope so with the given armors and weapon skins. I also think this would give people a reason to purchase the items being sold. I mean if you can customize them to match your character concept.

That said a few other suggestions along with the dying of weapons and back items would be the ability to choose a different color for the orange in the Balthazar outfit and the blue of the zodiac. I think this would draw the necromancers and guardians mesmers or those that just prefer a different color to get these armors. Just a thought of what may happen in the future.

That said one more suggestion. And maybe one that will be thought dumb or alittle to vain but i wouldn’t mind having the option to change the color of my character’s particles / skill effects to match up with how I view my character. I don’t look for this last one to happen just a pure vanity on this last one :P

If they let you dye them, they couldn’t just use recolours as new skins though. And where would the sense in that be!?

I did love that in GW1.

They could always just rework those items so that some parts cannot be color changed. Spinal blades for example, make everything dyeable cept for the “glowing” bits on the blades…

I don’t recall any precedent of Anet doing that, especially on the monetized skins.

This is basically how they did it in GW1, some weapons could not be dyed at all and all the choices made in this regard made enough sense. And it wasn’t limited to simply weapons with/without particles. They never let you dye particle effects, but often, like the firey dragon sword, other bits were open to dyes like the hilt.

Also OP: the new weapons and back item are not matching an ‘armor’ they are matching an outfit which makes it even worse -.-
