Seriously it's just becoming boring now.

Plox let us dye or change hue....
Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    I am. Dye would be nice, bit transmog would be even better.

    I hate not being able to build a character theme based on his look. It takes a lot away from a game for me.

    I agree entirely. Red is not at all a neutral color; it makes for very garish weapons, especially swords. Weapon dying would be nice, but I really would like more options with appearance. There are so many basic racial staff styles that go to waste because they're locked behind a low-level barrier. Give us the option to use them!

    No, it's a max lvl gear thing. There's only a few styles that won't leave your weapons red while using ruby mats.

    Rubedite Glass swords don't come out red. It does have a tinge of green in it though. Still...definitely a dye changer for weapons would be nice.

    A transmog would be better.

    YES! You would think Zeni would know by now that in MMO's it's a lot about making your character as unique and special as possible. My character always wears a monochromatic color look, but the red totally throws it off.

    And i am forced to wear a costume instead of showing off my awesome Minotaur light armor because of that red/flames from Infernal Guardian shoulder piece...

    It would be nice, and possibly an easy change to code, if you could make any tier weapons look like another tier of materials. I am also sick of the red everywhere.

    The max level tier crafting mats. Ruby Ash for woodworking, Rubedite Ingots for Blacksmithing, Rubedo Leather and Ancestor Silk for Medium and Light Armor. They're all red.

    Use dropped weapons instead of crafted ones or upgrade their quality; both cases will also improve your performance.

    That being said I am all for weapon dyeing; people are always running around looking silly with costumes, don't see how more potential sillyness could make it worse.
