Thread: opinions about composite color changing...
I hate to comment on someone else's board but since I AM a consumer then my opinion should count for something. Making the colors unchangeable would just frustrate me.
It's not a HUGE deal to me, but I like the ability to switch armor color without having to buy another, ridiculously expensive, ridiculously hard to findset. Armor, unfortunately, has become such a necessity for me to survive any sort of encounter I rarely even bother with clothes when I role-play non combat encounters. My armor has become my clothing, I guess.
My second choice would be to allow armorsmiths to make armor coloring kits, that anyone can use to color their armor.
These would have to be permanent changes, not like the very weak vehicle and droid customization kits.
But the free color changes have to go away... it was a bug fix, and while alot of people may like it, it needs to stop. I know most people would like it sony gave everyone a force sensitive slot, but I don't see them doing that.
i agree i also mark on my bags what color it is...and i agree before armorsmiths were only making bulk amounts of a few colors.....but the profession is also about custom orders and those can be whatever colors the ppl want...and now that they know what choices there are...should be easier for them...i just want to bring back more options into the armorsmith prof. I think armor should look cool, as well as protect well...i liked the fact we had some control over that and use it to an advertising advantage....but yes i have mix feelings on the issue as well. keep the opinions coming guys!

It ought to stay in the game. Perhaps actually put in a kit and bring it into the fold of a normal in-game customization. I like that.
But as it existed before just sucked. 90% of everyone who wore composite... wore black. The other 10% had another color, but most of it, is crap. There was no color diversity in the game till players were allowed to change the color themselves.
Best approach would probably be to make artisan-craftable armor recoloring kits or something like that, that worked with all armor types.
