			We can change the visible gear in different colors. We should be able to do the same with weapons. Currently my low level engi got a nice weapon, but it's PINK!!! I want it BLUE because I am a boy, not a girl !!

I brought this up too.
I heard that they want it that way so you have to go searching for the colour you want.	
----
			It was promised back in beta that dying weapons would be a thing. Obviously priorities have changed in the short term. However, it would be nice to hear a dev chime in about their plans for this.	
----
			The answer we have received is this.To allow us to dye gear they have on the models added a certain layer.This layer does not exist on weapons.So to allow us to dye weapons they would have to go back and implement this on all weapons.I.e. it is not a trivial thing.I also have a vague memory of them saying that they want to do this.We'll see in a year (:	
----
			I can't imagine why it never occurred to them that players would want to dye their weapons as well. Though I guess then it'd make the endless recolors of the same few weapons as you level up even more obvious... >_<

I would much rather them spend development \ artist time on adding more weapon skins into the game. Add Custom only skins dropped off named mobs or world bosses throughout the world. 
 
I like going out and finding weapons no need to make my green sword pink.... go find it.
We need more custom skins that can only be found in certain area's like Dungeons! Goes for armor pieces also.
Every knew zone added from here on out should have its own look. Stop re using old stuff, Carbine you're not fooling anyone when this is done.
 
 
I might throw up in my mouth a bit if I see that ugly Heavy Pink armor show up again.

No, it wasn't. In fact it was specifically said that even though they'd figured out a way to do weapon costumes, dyeing weapons was not doable without a ton of time they didn't have, even after launch.
----
			
But there aren't that many weapons in the game relatively. If they added weapon dying it would make it easier to add new weapons.
I skin and 3 colour settings instead of 6 different skins.

			I like this but I wouldn't care much if it wasn't implemented either. If you look around you're often bound to find a sword with the colour scheme you like and I enjoy having to do a bit of work to get the different variants of swords to better match my costumes as there are often different colours for each sword anyway. I am not against colouring swords - I initially was confused to see that it was not already in the game - but I can certainly wait for carbine to eventually get to it.
