Show weapon colors when you ping weapon you have equiped?

It would be nice if when you pinged your weapons it would actually show the name of the weapon in its color. (Gold, Purple, Green)

For example, now when you ping it would say "I'm wielding Weapon!" all in white text, regardless of what color the weapon is. But it would be nice if for example you had a unique Green, that when you pinged it, its name would be green similar to how when you drop and pick it up off the ground.

Just seems like it would be nice.

its a practical idea, but i dont know how soon it would be implemented

Why? I don't care whether your weapon is blue, white, gold or green. I'd rather not even see morons spamming "I'm wielding a something of something-or-other" - if I want to know, I'll ask. And you can type it back. And if you really need to you can say "It's gold!!!!!!", just to get it out there, in case anybody gives a crap.

This seems to be a case of vanity rather than a game improvement.

Hey. It's good. Gold weapons are rare, so they should be more valuable. Since most skins can come in all rarity levels. his would be a way to probe rarity without having to use the 'trade' feature.

So this would make rare drops a bit more valuable.

Meh... This would make Gold items even more overrated

Now here's a situation that would piss people off. Let's say you have the particular green for the boss you're team is farming, and after killing the boss for the tenth time with no drop, you decide to ping your weapon set 3 times to make them thing it was a jackpot.

Maybe in outposts...

um considering the ping will show up in team chat and the colors are in no way similar your tea would have to be dumb as hell to think it was a drop.......

/signed btw cause it would not be that hard i think and would stop people from typing in I'm wielding *insert rare wep*. and would make golds a lil cooler i think.

/signed... there is really no downside, not hard to implement, and rewards those who are willing to pay more to change the color of text when the say what they have.

not signed, absolutely no need. There's no difference between a white/purple or gold max dmg other than the colour. it just seems like a way for people to needlessly show off. I personally dont care what other people carry when i pug, as long as its max dmg and does the job required

If you guys don't care at all then there's no reason for you not to sign.

/signed also. Sounds like fun.

As if I needed another reason to never PuG again?

um dont people do that already........ i doubt this will change a single thing about that....

Idiotic behavior will always be there, and it's solving not inviting that idiot.

We already see the colors in drop messages. This is nothing different.

erm.../signed.

at least this way, when you have stupid a$$ hats in the middle of a mission asking, "Oooo! What are the mods on that gold?", they could just ping it instead of going back and forth, turning the mission into f'in trade chat. ADHD pricks. It would at least cut down on the rage.

Of course, if I'm in a PUG and that shit happens, I usually just leave. Honestly, wait to trade chat/pull out your e-peen until after the mission. The mods that matter to the mission have nothing to do with weapon color.

Oh, and elite greens, if you aren't an idiot, you can tell from the name. If it's [Name]'s sword, or The Whatever(Elswyth's recurve, The Quiverer), it's a green.

So maybe /notsigned

Naw, completely not needed, it would simply turn into a big e-peen showoff contest. There's already enough of those.

QFT! 12 umm... yeah....

Blue items can have the same stat's as Green items, i don't want people to go "omfg nub u use blue lol go way"
It would just be a sad way to brag "Lawl look at me i have full green's"
If you have a rare item people will see them since your holding it, no need to ping colours.

/signed

everyone complaining about blue color..if you don't care when people don't know, why does it matter when you ping?

/signed Good idea
