Guild Wars 2

I think it would be a neat idea to be able to set dye colors based on which attunement you are in. This would have no benefit besides cosmetic, but it would be fun for roleplaying.

I think there are more important issues with ele..

Would give enemy players a heads up of your attunement etc.
No thanks.

The giant element-themed explosions and glowing particle effects around your weapons don’t already do that?

Cool idea, maybe some day, but for now I think they need work on making the elementalist… work.

Also, someone who is paying attention to your status bar will see what attunement you’re in, so that’s a moot point on the color thing.

There’s nothing wrong with elementalist besides a few glitches. People are just babies or are too stubborn to try gearing differently or gearing at all. I don’t consider myself the best player but I’ve taken a elementalist to 80 with zero problems PvE for the exception of the first 12 or so levels it took me to learn the class. In dungeons I play a vital support role without sacrificing too much damage. In PvP I feel extremely powerful. The mobility and damage D/D offers is ridiculous. I run circles around other classes. I build like a tank so I can stall 4-5 people charging one point long enough for backup to arrive. I’ve even managed to win 2v1 and 3v1. I’ve never gone down without making my opponent work for his/her kill. Even though I’m spec’d tank I don’t feel like my damage is low at all. I have a crazy amount of heals as well to keep me going even when my health reaches critical. In WvW I perform just fine with my wide array of AoE.

Fishbait: This seems one of those obvious “if you don’t like it, don’t use it” things. Simply choose your colours to be the same for each attunement.

The bigger issue is whether it’s worth the resources.

Ugh the mentality of these forums is terrible, if you aren’t talking about how horrible the class is you have no place on these forums.

I really don’t think it would take that much time to implement a program like this. Not everyone on the Anet team is devoted to fixing bugs. I’m sure they have a department for improvement and a department for correction. Maybe they could give other classes a similar mechanic, like when Engineers switch kits they have the OPTION to change colors with it.

I like that people are again complaining about the mechanics of the elemtalist.

I like the cosmetic idea…. Though some people like having the one colour, works best with their armour… Perhaps it could be worked into a signet, that gives you a 5 second boost for swapping attunements or something.

Cool idea

Yes, please. Make this happen, this is awesome.
