It’s a boring model, and it can’t dye, so really you didn’t miss much
For me, it has quickly become one of my cherished Crown store possessions; I also gifted one to a friend to celebrate her getting Emp on a 2h nightblade after a brutal ranks competition and she loves it too.
I don't think there's a lot of stuff in the Crown store that will please everybody. But it saddens me that people regard Chrysamere as junk when there's clearly people that absolutely love it.
