Why? Why is r999 so ugly/plain? As most people know in sanctuary the only thing that is even semi equivalent to my love of pk is my love of looks/fash. I'm nearing getting my r9 wep and turning it into r999 is a simple task as I have all the things to make it when I get my r9 wep. The problem is that it's so plain and honestly I don't care much for the fashion wep either. What I do like is the original r9 wep look. R9 pataka for venos is so sexy QQ. I want purify, but I also want the r9 wep appearance. It might be silly, but I'm so tempted to +10 r9r and not make it r9rr because of the pataka look.

What I wish they would do:
Allow people to choose not to take on the r999 appearance because honestly pretty much all r999 gear is plain looking or border line ugly(archer bow).

Put a chance to get purify on r9/r9r.

Ps- the difference in damage between r999 and r9r is not really enough for me to care. I have been killing r999+1-12 with g16+0 pataka with 18str, +2% p.dmg reduction, and 1 def lvl. A +10 r9r pataka would be a huge step up and the only thing killing me is the fact that it can't have purify.

why is r999 so lame looking (main question)? I know the answer! They don't have good taste anymore >. <

    I agree with this completely.
    There's so many other great looking skins in this game going unused and unseen that I would much rather use.

    There's another unnamed game that allows you to purchase "transmutation" stones from their cashshop that allows you to apply any other skin from the same weapon class to whatever your current weapon is (the catch being, you need to have both weapons in order to do this and transmuted weapons become bound).

    I would gladly pay for a item of similar function in PWI that would allow me to use a different skin over r9rr or g16. (G16 skins are far too common IMO and would love to reskin them - foremost being the g16 dual blades, I would love to be able to reskin them as g15 TT again)

    This would be a fantastic feature for PWI and good for the cashshop (non-essential for gameplay, but fun to use)

    Gahaha loved the "unnamed game" comment!

    Well what can be said besides yes yes and yes pls! This can be worked with weapon fashion! The system is there already!

    I wouldnt mind paying something extra to run around in a badass weapon skin make it happen please!

    For example: There's nothin more badass than the huge red Godess fists. Just by lookin at them you wanna roll an aps bm again! Then again when i see the g16 claw I wanna find the guy who made that abomination and kick him to the teeth!

    I'd definetly run around in my original R9 axes (crazy eye is crazy eye) rather than my r9rr generic *** looking hedgehogs!!

    Example number 2:

    You could see an r9 bow coming a freekin mile away.

    Nowadays when i see an archer from the distance and cant figure out what that thing in his arms is I assume is r9rr.

    Example 3:

    Veno weapon:

    JUST OMG you went from I'm coming to kick your *** to infinity to I'm lvl 99 you can take me any time. WTH
    I bet thats like 50% the reason a lot of venos didnt go r9rr

    Example 4:

    Psychics: DAT DRAGON SPHERE....will never be seen again....nough said

    Example 5:

    Mystics: Mystics went r9rr so fast i dont even know what the original r9 looks like! I am certain its kick ***!
    That kind of certainty doesnt come out of thin air!

    I wanna look BAD *** dammit! Sue me

    You already know that I actually like the R9rr/R8r weapon look but I'd be all for the ability to re-skin weapons or something alike.

    I wonder why they changed the R9rr weapon skins for all classes...yet Clerics keep the same weapon. It's kind of weird. Although I prefer the R9rr/R8r pataka for Venomancers I really wouldn't mind having the plain R9 one either xD It does look pretty badass.

    While you're at it... I also want the PWCN armor looks for their R9rr.... seriously those are awesome. I don't like the armor we have in PWI, which is basically Morai gear.

    The upcoming R8rr weapon designs that are (probably coming) in the expansion look pretty awesome too.

    @Egamoto - I actually think the Mystic plain R9 weapon doesn't look that great.

    I'm fairly certain that RaiderZ - which as a PWE published game we can name in the forums (I'm fairly certain that's how it works, you just aren't allowed to name games by other Devs/Publishers) - Allows for something similar with both the Weapon skins and their Armor b:pleased

    And as to Desdi's comment about the Cleric's rrr9 weapon; I've been wondering exactly that ever since I saw the r9 and then looked at the rrr9 and went, "why does everyone else have shiny blue rrr9 weapons and we got stuck with giant, something that in real life would be otherwise unwieldable, looks ridiculous on female clerics due to the size?"

    Its not Raiderz nor a game published by PWE that I was referring to ;)
    Google "Transmutation Stone" and the first results show how these items work in that game b:chuckle

    In my honest opinion Mystic's have the best r9rr weapon, the regular r9 one looks disgusting. That blue clawed hand holding that sphere is so cool, and blue is my favorite color though :D b:laugh

    QQ i actually posted a thread in the idea box (oh god no >.> not there Dx) about trying to change our r9rr looks with the pwcn r9rr. it is a completely unique model that WE HAVE in our client. it would be such a simple graphics swap. no need to reprogram anything or even add anything. just swap a few files >.>

    My comment was more so an "In Addendum" to yours >.> Though I didn't actually explicitly state that, but I do now b:chuckle
    In Addendum to the game-that-cannot-be-named-on-these-forums-because-PWE-doesn't-like-us-saying-the-names-of-games-that-they-don't-publish, RaiderZ has a similar system to the aforementioned "Transmutation" stone, whereby the weapon and armor skins can be applied to any and all armors/weapons of the same type provided you possess both items.

    Yeah most r9 does look like **** on the 3rd recast.I would hate to have something so expensice and so unique that the weapons look like morai gear.oht **** and the armor looks like that dream chaser/morai stuff as well.

    PW please stop being lazy on this side of the globe and make the r9 stuff with a unique look..get it? got it? good.
