Hello people, I've had this suggestion in my mind for a while. I've just thought posting it would be pointless because I think everyone would disagree with it but now I'm gonna express my opinion. I think on this game that you should be able to design your weapons like change the color of them or add small accessories. When you edit your weapons though you actually edit the symbol not the weapon. If you don't get what I mean by symbol, here's an example of Calibur, Tempered Calibur, Ascended Caibur, or Leviathan Blade's symbol: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/images/thumb/5/5a/Equipment-Tempered_Calib...
But there are rules while doing this:
1. If a higher star version of a weapon has a different symbol than the weapon you are trying to design and you try painting the weapon the same colour as that then it won't allow you to. (ex:If you tried painting a Tempered Calibur the same colour as a Cold Iron Carver but if you have an Ascended Calibur, since it's the same star level Cold Iron Carver you may paint it like that.)
2.If you try painting a different type of weapon that's the same colour as a higher star version of your weapon you try to paint then you can't do that. (ex: If you try painting a Flourish the same colour as a Blaster or Blast Bomb, then you can't do that because it would look like a Final Flourish or Grand Flourish).
With accessories, like they do with armour they take parts from armour and make them accessories for you to have them alone. (ex:Divine Halo comes from Divine Veil.) If you wanted your Blaster to have a wing, you'd need a Silversix wing accessory.You can get a weapon designer from Vatel for 60,000 crowns (instead of 50,000) and I'm not sure if I want it to be destroyed once used but yeah...
There will be weapons listed for you to paint it and depending on what star it is, it'll cost a certain amount of crowns/energy(Three Ring's choice) but if you have the weapon you want to paint something like another weapon for free then you have to have that weapon in your arsenal already (ex: If I wanted to paint a Blaster like a Cold Iron Carver for free, then I would need a Cold Iron Carver).
I feel like I explained this badly but yeah, this is my suggestion a weapon designer.
Also if a weapon has different versions of it in other colours, then you can't change the colour (ex: Elemental brandishes).
You could draw it.
