Talk:The Colors...

Definitely a reduction in elemental resistance:

With The Colors...

Hot Protection: Really Very Amazingly High

Cold Protection: Amazingly High

Spooky Protection: Amazingly High

Stench Protection: Really Very Amazingly High

Sleaze Protection: Really Very Amazingly High

Without The Colors...

Hot Protection: Very Extraordinarily High

Cold Protection: Really Very Extremely Amazingly High

Spooky Protection: Really Very Extremely Amazingly High

Stench Protection: Very Extraordinarily High

Sleaze Protection: Very Extraordinarily High

Same effects and equipment. Looks like it's a full 5 levels of resistance lost. --Jennles 12:45, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Without The Colors, fighting the magic dragonfish does not give elemental damage, but with the colors, I get elemental damage, even in the fight that I got the effect "the colors" from. I seem to be able to get every kind of elemental damage randomly from the dragonfish. The pufferfish and the jamfish are not giving me the same damage - only the dragonfish. Edit - definitely gives all forms of elemental damage, but I only get hot damage once and the others a number of times. --Makarina 01:24, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. I'm seeing elemental damage without The Colors... Just got hit for 21 stench, 36 hot, etc. Do you have a high level of resistance? I'm running almost nothing, so maybe that plays into it. --Jennles 12:36, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

This effect, along with the monster that gives it (the magic dragonfish), is probably a reference to pot smoking, aka, "Puffing the magic dragon". "Wow, the colors, man!" is often uttered by people that are high o_O --Jimfromtx 06:30, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
