Purple Crystals for Republic. Still no response from Devs!

Enough with the biting. Did you brush your teeth?

Let's make a deal...you guys get to have purple lightsabers and Sith get...glow in the dark clown shoes? Fair trade?

Sounds like nothing will change or affect the game if you ask me. Look at Champ and BM gear. All the damn same look if you ask me. So adding a more obtainable purple crystal will just make more people happy and sub another month.

To all that don't care about the color...

why do you post on this thread then? If you don't care then why troll a thread of poeple who do? Oh because you're trolling, got it...

Anyway....

I've seen the magenta crystal on sale on gtn (republic side) for 350k on my server(prophesy of the five). It seems one guy on rep side is crafting them, i plan on buying one when i have a spare 350k on me. close enough for now.

It's not even close to purple. It's more like pink. I gave mine to my Companion Nadia

We can't settle for the magenta crystal we want full on PURPLE for Republic.

Yeah, true, I was trying to cheer myself up lol.

I don't mind the LS/DS thing so much.

But the exclusion of so wanted a colour was always going to be controversial.





Personally I think it would be better to allow all colours to anyone (potentially), but make the path to getting them difficult (not necessarily only raiders/PvPer/whateverers can have them, but also stuff like collect all datacrons on Republic side and get purple crystal or something, or convoluted quests etc.)

unfortunately my friend Magenta is a sort of pinky red whereas purple is more blue than read i would say

infact -

Magenta

Purple

As a Sith Sorcerer, my purple lightsaber says hi.

We only had to kill Karagga like 4 times for me to get mine.

Yep, this I can agree with. I'm not an entitlist and I am happy for some quest to get this.

Still wouldn't answer the question of why the have gone down the route they have.

What's the deal with purple, anyway? I mean, I sort of get people wanting different colors for their lightsabers, but why do so many people get bent out of shape over that particular color?

I've been roleplaying since before most people here were conceived, and I don't get the "it's important if you're a roleplayer!" argument. No, it's not. It's not harder to roleplay a guy who doesn't have a purple lightsaber. Frankly, if you absolutely have to have a particular color to roleplay properly, you really must kind of suck at roleplaying.

It really is just a color, and it doesn't matter what bizarre nonsensical arguments you might make to try to turn it into more than that. Unless, of course, you're trying to roleplay as Samuel L. Jackson, but if you are, you're doing it wrong.
