Hey you think it\\'d ever happen/be possible if ffxiv could get an entire gear overhaul so that every single gear item/weapon can be dyeable?! I\\'m talking like dungeon/raid gear. I would LOVE to see more variety and color changes. Whats your thoughts about this guys? Do you agree or disagree?
Maybe added as crafted recipes with a dye options. Happened with most of the gear from 2.X.
That would require SE having to copy the textures for every single piece of gear in the game and reskin them in every available dye colour in the game - given there is (according to this site) 5278 individual pieces of armour in the game (not even including the old 'dated' gear from 1.0), and there are 131 different dyes in the game, that is a possible 691418 separate textures SE has to create, a time consuming enterprise that would eat into development time and resources. Not to mention a lot of armour has a lot of detail which makes making such dye textures more difficult to code and produce.
Hence, I do not see SE making all gear dyeable I'm afraid.
Im certain it would be a hassle, however if at all possible i would like the idea of glamouring weapon effects to other weapons of the same type. While i know with different designs comes effects that simply would not mach the frame work of some items, it's a shame something like relic effects on GC weapons is an impossibility atm.
As a compromise what about thematic weapon effects being added to glamour over weapons? They could be their own items from GC, raids, pirmals, ect...
Dye able field commander coat pls SE.
