Like arcane salamander for example. I mean make the blue parts on it prismatic. Anything with hue, prismatic. It only looks cool on blue people, and that's just racist. I was born orange. Its not a choice.

On a serious note, it is prismatic if you are blue. Saw a pic of blue prismatic wings on it, and it's a dead match, and I'm orange. Bit of a conundrum. I'm not trying to make a "special request", but it would be nice if us colored people could get some cool prismatic armor. If this dosen't happen, I'm gonna have to call for /b/lack up. Or /o/range up. Whatever.

Or make the eyes on the snarbolax helm your personal color. Mabey the spikes too.

Mad bomber looks only good on

Mad bomber looks only good on red people as well, so does salamander and vog cub. What's your point?

If you want a cool outfit to go with blue you go for arcane, if you want an outfit to go with red you take vog cub, i don't see the problem here

But the arcane is prismatic... totally the coolest acessory. To my discredit though, I think vog looks better in orange.
Think about it though, blue people would still look the same in it. Dosen't hurt. I'd at least like them to have more color change auctions. Being named orangeo in spite of being blue would be nice....

Exactaly. Plus this would be better for lockdown, since your color is random.

This seems strange. You can change your color, so change it, being named Orangeo doesn't mean you have to be orange. (I see people wearing shirts saying "I love pink" and the shirt is blue or green, people will be more likely to think of it as a joke then the fact that you're orange or not)
Also, Arcane Salamander orange would look strange, it just wasn't built for that color, get Vog or Volcanic Salamander. If they wanted it to be based off accessories you would have Divine Salamander, Volcanic Salamander, and Prismatic Salamander, or even Shadow Salamander. Just like dragon wings, or other accessories.

It would be the same to ask for Snarbolax to change to green if your Personal Color were green. It would be fine if you use Twisted Targe and Twisted Snarble Barb just so you can get away with matching. What if I were purple? Then Snarbolax would be almost impossible to see. Now if you want to stick to ONLY Arcane Salamander then it would make no since to have Orange on a set made for purple colors.(The thought just seems strange... Orange veins?) Just change your color or get a costume armor set. (If you don't have the money to change your color then GL)

"You can change your color, so change it, being named Orangeo doesn't mean you have to be orange. "
I'd change it in a heartbeat upon getting my shadow chroma suit, belive me, but I would rather just have a color changing arcane sala becuase it would match in lockdown/BN too.

"If they wanted it to be based off accessories you would have Divine Salamander, Volcanic Salamander, and Prismatic Salamander, or even Shadow Salamander. Just like dragon wings, or other accessories."
The arcane salamander IS a prismatic salamander. Look at the grey hues. The only non-prismatic part is the blue.

"It would be the same to ask for Snarbolax to change to green if your Personal Color were green. "
It should, I don't really get why not. Make a rabid snarbolax armor color.

I mean like "Make Armours

I mean like "Make Armours match more Personal colours" by adding more prismatic parts, or "Make Armour more Prismatic"

i have the solution people

i have the solution people listen up. what if there was a 5 star branch for every armour. that instead of being defensive it would be aesthetic and therefore prismatic too. for certain things that only go up to, say, 3 stars then the next would be four stars.

Could be worse, you at least see your face with Arcane Salamander. With Azure Guardian you do not see your color ANYWHERE.

" that instead of being defensive it would be aesthetic and therefore prismatic too."
That makes absolutely no sense. Plenty of aesthetic things aren't prismatic. Like my regal canteen. It's regal. Not prismatic. Are you suggesting that we just make a costume of each armor color? That would mean each armor would have 24 different versions.

"With Azure Guardian you do not see your color ANYWHERE"
Having no personal coloring technicaly makes it work with everything. That, and why make azure guardian? MABEY the armor, it looks cool, but keep the helm at 4 star and use a helpful armor peice. The cobalt line's only good for making almarian crusader, another mediokre armor peice.
