Why dont make all gear dyeable?

There are lots of gears with good models but not dyeable.
This is a huge waste!
I know that some of gears are going to be dyeable as a later special recipes, but what about other gears? For example, the divine war sets or coil gear sets etc.
So I want to hear about official voice on this question.

BTW, could you add a function that we can see how each dye works on the gear we currently "try on"? And could we someday "try on" multiple gears at one time?

Thank you

agree 100%

Coil Dyes>>> Yes that HA Tank Armor On Metallic RED I NEED ITTTTT NOWWWWW

No love for my post ? ; ;

This forum just doesn't get as much traffic. I agree all gear should be dyable - even the duplicates because they can have different dyable color patterns or a different offset color. And being able to try on multiple items as well as check dyes on them would be awesome.

It's been stated that they largely only want crafted gear to be dyeable, mostly to help increase the desireability of it (See also why to dye your artifact armor you need crafted reagents to transform it into a dyeable state)

Yes, but as I said, there are still tons of gears compare to the small number of crafted gear released each time. For example, Foestriker's Skirt is a great skirt, but the only dyeable one is Direwolf Skirt of Aiming and for ARC BRD only. Since Foestriker's Skirt is a only lv15 Legs, I do not think that SE will make it as a crafted gear any soon.

Sorry, I don't particularly feel like digging through months of dev posts; this is something that's been brought up throughout 2.0's lifespan a few times and was adressed fairly early. Doesn't mean it doesn't have the capacity to change, of course.

Note that it's not solely crafting only ever, but just largely crafted pieces - the Lightning Returns sets, for instance, are also dyeable. They also weren't on release, just like there wasn't a way to dye your AF initially. They don't seem likely to implement a sweeping change to previous gear but do seem willing to revisit specific sets for potential changes.

In before cash shop item that makes a non-dyeable gear dyeable.
