Having a good build doesn’t cut it. You also need a good look. PERIOD
Here are some suggestions/ideeas:
Change colors of items (you should be able to change at least 2 if not a max of 3 colors on an item)
Change color of effects of items (let’s say i want to add the fire glow effect of Cindercore to any other gun, or Grim Fate sword’s chaos effect around it to any other 1 handed melee)
Another example, some boots have ground effects, like voidwalker footpads or wraithwalkers and others, would really be nice to change the color of them.
Change the visual effects of augments on weapons. Some of them really ruin the original look and effect of a weapon.
Essence of Ch’thon on my gun has a very nice distrortional effect around it…i would like to have it on both guns even if i have 2 diff augments, or maybe the option to have none, cause the gun looks better without any.
Change the visual effects of ur bullets. For example my pyromancer has a chance to shoot some raelly nice red chaosy like energy bullets, dunno for sure which skill it is, would really be nice to always see those.
Change the sound that items do. For example Thunderclap 2h gun and Rundebinder’s crossbow, both have a silent sound to their shooting, would really be nice to change it if i choose to use any other skin besides them.
Change some visual effects for some skills. For ex i would really like 50% more transparency for Maiven’s Sphere and Whirling Blades. Maybe also change the color of that purple cloud in whirling blades.
Change colors of skills. I want my FW to look firey if its fire dmg and purply if its elemental dmg. Thunderous strike as 100% aetheral should be green lightning. etc…
Option to change loading screen. Maybe make a folder of more pics that are picked randomly for the loading screen. Not saying i dont like the current one…but seeing it all the time makes it boring to look at…
Will re-edit this post with more ideeas…please share yours if you would like such an option.
Jokes aside, I personally want 7 the most. I guess everyone wants it but as Safarel pointed out, it’s a lot of work. 1-4 is reasonable though I personally think the Illusions are enough for this. This would be a lot more work than 7 though so I can’t see any of the 4 happening.
I think the sound should be linked to an item/skill and should not be changed unless you some skill mods (for skills). For items you can use illusion again and the weapon will have the sound of the one you’re disguised with.

I think there’s a tutorial somewhere here in the forums to change loading screens. You can only use one at a time though.
I believe it’s a lot of work to change the colors of skills when damage conversion occurs, but I think it’s really pointless to have so much damage conversion in the game if you don’t intend to follow it up with graphical adjustments. Especially when they actually do it in some cases (ike with transmuters in skill trees or Farath’s Cube).
They could make a DLC solely devoted to cosmetic features and charge for it.
If Crate is going to make one visual change in the upcoming expansion, I’d like to see the ability to turn off the visual effects of auras. While Crab’s damage absorption is great, running around in a blue bubble isn’t.
6 and 8 are real issues. I am in an extreme need of an option to turn off specific buff skills’ visual effects. And I saw many people of the same opinion here.
7 would be very nice, but seems like a lot of work.
As for the others, they are not problems for me personally. Some of them are solved by an illusionist.
Blind Sage - Elemental Seeker has elemental dmg (fire/cold/light) and it’s always blue.
I have a very nice purifier, all fire, using Elem Seeker, and it’s kinda…sad to see it blue, when i have 2700%fire, 800% cold and 1500% light dmg.
It’s color should be determined by which one of 3 elem dmgs u have the highest.
So fire more - seeker should be yellow-orange-red-ish
Cold more - should be blue-dark blue-ish
Light more - should be blue-white-ish
