When will we recive the Ability to Dye Weapons/Shields?Costumes?

Gurchanar

Since Update 1.3 (8 Months... EIGHT MONTHS!) the whole thing about having a black fancy armour and a pinkish shield bugs me to furious. You guys answered a forum thread right after the lauch of Update 3 and simply ignored the fact since that. Of course somethings are more important but It has been enough time for such a simply mechanic, just let us costumize your gear. I already stopped play for 2 months simply because of that ugly nonsense. I already asked this many times but I wished to have any news towards the ability to Dye any Weapon Shield and Costums and add Guild Tabards (Even Fighters Guild or Some Aedric/Daedric symbol) to Shields. Please, give some status on this feature.

Cosmetic stuff will always be at the bottom regarding priorities, if this is such a deal breaker I'd check back in three to four months. After they settle the current system into place and Consoles are launched.

I hope that 3 to 4 months isn't the case. I will continue playing for now, it's a deal breaker in the longrun, but eventually I understand this. But remeber that the feature was implemented 8 months ago and we still don't get answers from the Devs since it. And looking at it, ZoS don't have much touch in balancing priorities, they add some costmetic features that are quite unfinished. Well... I guess they will leave this in the "?" zone forever, it's sad.

I honestly wouldn't have a problem with not being able to dye weapons and shields, if the weapons and shields you can loot/craft/buy didn't come in such absurd colors. For example, upgrading a VR10-14 weapon from epic to legendary makes it...purple? I mean what the f[snip]? If there were even an option to "dye" your weapons and armor by using an extra material that will determine the color of your weapon, I would even take that. But to be stuck running around with green and purple swords like something out of Star Wars while rocking a red suit of armor, is just absolutely unnecessary.

It should have been an easy addition to the game, should have gone hand-in-hand with armor dyes. The fact that it seems like there hasn't been any word yet from the devs on whether or not weapon/shield dyes will be added in game is worrisome. What is the reasoning behind it? I understand that in the Elder Scrolls series, certain colors are supposed to be indicative of a weapon's power, but for the love of all that is holy, it makes zero sense to allow us to dye our armor any color of the rainbow, and then have our weapons and shields looking like glow sticks and jolly ranchers straight out of hotmess.com.

I really wanted to allow people to have thereon colour to swords and shield. Limiting thing because Paul Sage (The Guy who was with the most rainbow shirt during the Tamriel Unlimited Live) doens't what pink swords (But is completely fine to have pinkish armour, green blasing blades and purple dagger, for some magical reason). The community is also divided on this. The mechanic of Dyeing Shield and Weapons with the respective Material would work, but would lack the REAL costumization. Also, It would make sense to complain about that there should be colored Swords when I already saw people with Glowing-Green Armour with Deep Blue Details.

ZoS ignores every thread about Dyes (And must any other who comes up with Questions or Suggestion) since September or so. We are walking near March 17th and yet, just a minimal feature was not implemented in game because of some type of lazyness and "I just Cosmetic Stuff" type of thinking. The major problem is that they also takes ages to Deploy Updates that are half complete. Update 6 was a amazing Boom and I loved it. Don't get me wrong, I love the game, it's amazing... But the TESO fell that should have and the attetions of Devs to Immersion and the Claim "Plays as you want" just don't fit on it... Not yet. I already tried to talk with ZOS_GinaBruno and never had a anwser... Well, the game still there and still amazingly good. I just wished some parts of it to be complete
