    I'm confused. Do you really support this? Cuz talking like Jar Jar seems to me the #1 way to intentionally undermine credibility...

    I actually had plans to get the Kumari so I can get Fleet Andorian Phasers for my Andorian's Vesta, which are blue. I actually do like having different colors. She's currently using Phased Biomatter right now.

    Seconded. I was really excited about finally being able to have a viable phaser beam boat once I got enough Biomatter ones from the Undine rep. And then totally bummed out to see they were firing green!

    The Biomatter ones are from the Xindi boxes. I believe you're referring to the Bio-molecular Phasers.

    Aside from TOS and non-Starfleet ships, Phasers were orange everywhere. At least give us ONE Phaser variant with a useful proc that is orange... Or better yet, re-enable that command if it still works, so everyone is happy.
    Part of the fun is to mix and match sets, which currently is just impossible for the canon loving part of the playerbase.
    It shouldn't be hard to understand, that some of us want a canon looking ship without sticking to standard weapons, this is Star Trek after all, Phasers should be the last energy type to get shafted. I really don't see why orange Phasers shouldn't be possible. A word from a Dev about the reasons for this design decision would be much appreciated.

    This
    I think a simple "disable visuals" option like we see on many other items of gear would be helpful to this issue.

    Or this

    Please? It would be wonderful to have a wide selection of orange phasers to choose from, but at least give us one with a useful proc.
