MGoblin256 Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) Don't get me wrong, I love the colorable version of the Gold Bricker pack we got, but I would greatly appreciate having the stock version seen on NPCs in order to match up with the rest of the "Legacy" Gold Bricker costume parts. Any chance that could be added? Edited June 1, 2023 by MGoblin256

Pretty sure you can also get the GB one; being an old-timer Red Sider, I usually go for that one. 1 Tim "Black Scorpion" Sweeney: Matt (Posi) used to say that players would find the shortest path to the rewards even if it was a completely terrible play experience that would push them away from the game... ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Can't you color it to match anyway?

Can't you color it to match anyway? Not exactly. The actual color is a shade that we can't match with the current color palette (something shared by the gold bits on the other Gold Bricker legacy pieces). It also has some other details, such as the rusted-looking propeller and golden metal rings around the jet nozzles, that the colorable version lacks. I'd also argue that the propeller on the colorable one looks worse since it almost looks like it's untextured by comparison. I've attached an image to illustrate my point (Colorable on the left, "Legacy" on the right). I know it's subtle, but as someone who's very detail oriented, it's something that kinda bugs me, lol. Also just seems strange that the most iconic of the Gold Brickers' costume parts didn't receive a "Legacy" version like the pants, boots, gloves and belt did. Edited June 3, 2023 by MGoblin256 1
