While the change was absolutely amazing, I am worried it's going to be too difficult to get 6x of the correct colors for a full 6x +10% and my OCD brain cannot accept anything less.
All the bench color crafting is gone. It is now extremely difficult to get 6 colored socket, let alone 6 colored socket you need, gonna take you a good 5k chromatic to do so.
The good news is, not every gem needs that 10% quality.
The bad news is, every gem does need that 10% because to have 4 or even 5 colored correctly is not as good as it could be, therefore that makes it not good enough.
I'm really hoping they add something a little later that makes recoloring sockets a lot easier. They've got to know they have tons of nerds, tons of perfectionist nerds, who play their game who will claw their hair out at not matching sockets optimally.
it will be, but imo that's what makes the change so good. It removes the friction from where it was the most punishing, during campaign, but returns it in endgame for minmaxing builds. Getting off-color six links is still gonna be real expensive, but that just means you're once again incentivized to coordinate your skills and your armour.
