Mod Tier colors for the color blind

Serya

I'm color blind and have issues seeing the differences in the Mod tier colors. To me it only looks like there are Blue and Yellow mods. The Purple and Blue look very similar and the Yellow and Green look very similar. Any chance we could get the colors changed so they are a bit more unique?

They have letter designations. Also the number of secondary stats showing at level 1 tells you everything you need to know before you invest.

Color change to? I think you'd propose something by yourself

You can distinguish them by looking at the amount of "waves" and "ticks":
no ticks (grey-green) = level 1-2
Two tick (green-blue) = level 3-4
Four ticks (blue) = level 5
Six ticks (blue-purple) = level 6-7
Six ticks, 2 of them connected (purple)= level 8
six ticks, all connected (purple) = level 9
six ticks connected, 2 half-waves (purple) = level 10
six ticks connected, 2 waves (purple-gold) = level 11-12


It might be difficult to distinguish 1 with 2 and 3 with 4 (but really, the difference in fact is minimal, you won't need to distinguish them really). The most difficult is 6-7, that might be a problem, but still the time you'll be playing with 6-7 gear characters is very limited.
To help you, gear level is written in Roman numbers under the character rendering. You can also enable, since Android Lollipop, color correction in developer settings.

Correct me if im wrong, but op was talking about mod colors, not gear markings

I was going to say something snarky about reading comprehension, but instead I'll just say that I believe you are correct.

what about when looking at your own inventory... I think that devs should implement it - maybe easiest way is just to change colors...

i would also like it to be visable at first glance wich mod was wich quality when you have multiple lvl12+ mods. I really dislike it that they all turn gold at lvl 12.

If on iOS, try the new colorblind filters in the Accessibility settings. They helped me.

Looks like it's a new feature in iOS 10. I will update my phone and give it a try. Thanks!

The only color that matters is yellow

Get the Yellow!!!

Same prob with me. I'm a little colorblind so all I see is yellow and blue. And quite frankly everyday I have to click on them to see how many secondaries they have and it juat reminds me how insensetive the designers were. This is a very known problem in gaming and lots of game makers design their games appropriately.

Insensitive lol

So upgrading to iOS 10 and using the color filters did help a bunch. The upgrade is huge though and does take a while to do but I guess we would be doing it eventually anyways.

Thanks a bunch for the tip @PhiGonSharobi

2 words: inverted colors

It's an option on both iOS and Android...
