Really don't like how this game panders to the richy rich crafting people when it comes to vanity items. Why not just give them the ability to craft useful high item level items comparable to the end game (at that time) gear?
Instead we have a fairly SMALL pool of good looking vanity items and many are trapped behind the wall of effery called "crafting folks using the MB" which leads directly to simple stuff like Coeurl Beach gear that ... I NEVER see anyone wear because no one on my sever makes them and the ONE I have seen on the MB is being listed as 8mill ... with zero history so literally only one person bothered to make it and thought putting it up for 8mil was a good idea -_-
Hell, I don't even think it looks all that great but if I can make one some day I WILL glam it just cause I have never seen another character in that ...
Same fore the new Mogblades, I have never seen one go up on the MB on my server though I have seen a few people pay 2mill ish for the mats for it (checked other servers with my alts and it seems like my server is just strange :/ ).
Would hate for NEW dyes to become like most any other vanity item on my server that are restricted to star ranked crafts. Hope it's not trade-able and it's gotten through the use of hunt seals.
Also, as for GW2 .. i left that game a loong time ago but one thing I DID like about it was how it handled dyes. Sure, you could spend an arm and a leg to buy the blackest black or whitest white ... but you could use that color FOREVER on w/e gear and never have to rebuy it for that character again(I hear you now have a shared color libary with ALL your characters and the same goes for skins ... good shit GW2! still not gonna play you again though ..). AND you could dye more than one part of your gear (none of this forced appeal bs ARR has where they limit you to just coloring one part of the gear ... IF you can color it).
