[Dev Request] Please make Padjali weapons dyeable

Please let us change the glow to suit our glamour!

Are the padjali weapons the ones from PotD? If so how do they look?

It's kind of hard to see the glow, but like Warrior is red, Dragoon is blue, Ninja is pink, Bard is this sickening yellow-green color.

Indeed. The weapons are meant to be a literal manifestation of your aether so they match the colour of your job's soulstone. I don't really see the harm in allowing us to change the colour though.

Maybe they'll be dyeable in the next section of Deep Dungeon? Just a thought but I could definitely see them doing that if they continue to build on this mode and add new floors and ilvl.

Ohh I didn't know that they were supposed to represent the soulstone.

Let me dye my soulstone then! :D

Looking at it, the DRK soulstone is also a purple/red colour, not actually pure black

dyes don't work on glows (see Zodiac weapons)

But with some luck the 51-100 floors give a dyeable weapon with no glow that hide the color.

Dyes affect the glow on the High Allagan weapons so they clearly can do it.

The glow on these weapons isn't actually a particle effect anyway, it's just a bloom post-processing effect applied to a very high emission texture. The colour of the bloom effect would be controlled simply by the colour of the weapon texture. It would literally be no different at all to normal dyes in terms of coding.

Hey, don't insult the purple-black lightsaber crystal, that is the best looking saber crystal in the whole game. I say hell yes to giving drk a red/black or purple/black sword. I also think a pure black crystal in swtor would look badass personally.

I listed the colors of each soul stone in a previous thread here they are.

Paladin: Pale Blue
Monk: Yellow
Warrior: Red
Dragoon: Blue (slightly lighter than Scholar)
Bard: Chartreuse
Ninja: Dark Purple
Dark Knight: Burgundy
Machinist: Cyan
White Mage: White/Ecru
Black Mage: Purple
Summoner: Green
Scholar: Blue (slightly darker than Dragoon)
Astrologian: Orange

I thinm they all match except DRK, and possibly Machinist, but I havent run with any machinists, so I cant say for sure.

Machinist soulstone is cyan so it's a match :)

maybe they let us upgrade the weapons with stuff from floor 51-100 etc with 3.4

this way they could make the ilvl 250 versionen dyeable or other features with the skins in relic style

I don't think they are suppose to be dyed because they match your jobs soul stone and the aether within. Being able to dye them wouldn't really make sense.

I support this, I really don't like the bard colour :(

I hate ninja daggers. They're not red enough.

Wouldn't mind a non-glowing option, either, tbh. The perfect Padaji Greatsword to me, honestly, is just a dark blue and black Balmung. (Same model, no glow; normally red.)

I wouldnt mind them fixing the MCH, MCH padjali with Gauss Barrel looks uuuuugly since the gauss barrel does not glow the same.

thou I like the idea, I understand why they are the colors they are... won't say "no" but won't demand it

Just a hunch but I think as we delve deeper into the dungeon the appearance of the weapon will change from pure aether to a more wordly look..

This would be so awesome! And possibly the grade of the weapon will change MAYBE? But I like this idea a continuous weapon similar to relic/anima but from one content only.

Please don't!

It is very fine and logical now, that's why they are GREEN weapons ^^;

White Mage would like to have a word with you...

I believe our soul stone is white yet our weapon is orange.

Dark Knight would also like to have a word with you.

The Ninja weapons are pink. The Soul Crystal is dark purple with a red marking.

Why would a ninja use them as glamour ? isn't ninja all about stealth ? :)

WHM padjali cane is peach color while the soul stone is pure white

Likely because a pure white glow would not be viable for a pure white weapon, so they had to go with a peach colour (the red on a WHM cloak maybe?)

What's better than an easily concealed weapon?

A weapon you create on the spot made of your own aether!
They can't find that hidden on you!

Point, but then when draw you turn into that :p

I am on a laptop, so my graphics settings are pretty low, making them all just appear white haha

On a more serious note, not sure they could add this, cause people are then gonna ask to be abble to dry all the weapons and, even if that could be cool, that would probably require a lot of work :/

It's like sneaking up on someone in the dark and then shining your flashlight in their face.
