Chroma color change.

[Brendon12343]

I have maxed out chroma but the only thing I have not been able to do was cast ice/toxic/lightning with my abilities, I have always been attuned to fire.

In appearance I have made A: fire B: ice and C: lightning, but how to I switch to these while in game? I do not see an option in controls that allow me to change frame preset colors.

As it stands right now, Chroma can't change his energy colour while in game, you have to be on the ship.

and it would probably be considered too much OP if it was possible to switch on the fly during missions...

I see that is somewhat unfortunate, I had the impression that I would be able to swap energy depending on the situation as I watched review videos of him. Thanks for clearing that up.

Given how the team buffs work with each element I'd imagine that it would be pretty OP to allow switching in mission, although with other frames getting toggles like Ivara and Vauban, it might not be that far-fetched a concept really. If that is ever something DE implement I hope the balancing is fair.

Personally I'd like to see Chroma get a bit of love really. It's a fairly tough frame to mod if you're looking to have a jack of all trades; tradeoffs have to be made and team buff potential is pretty much the first to go if you want a tanky Chroma, yet it seems that DE were intending it to be used as a support much more than it actually is given that they've even added augments to up the usefulness of Elemental Ward.
