Chroming in this game to me is actually more annoying than any other (jewelling, fusing) simply because you require colors for your skills, otherwise you're SOL. At least at parts of the game you can get away without having all your shit linked and can manage without full sockets on everything.
I too spent a LOT of chroms just to try to get 2b, 2g and 1r on a Daresso chest.. I couldn't beleive how difficult it was and was wasting so many orbs. This is one of the unfunnest parts of the game tbh.

I agree, and what's more, according the the Q&A they had a while back, GGG agrees as well.
There was a "add an orb" suggestion thread a while back where I made the following suggestion
"
Stasis Orb Place in the socket of an item to protect that socket from a single chromatic orb
So if you have a weapon that's BBR and you want GGR, you can place the Stasis Orb in the red socket and hit the item with a chromatic. The Stasis Orb would be consumed and that socket is guaranteed to remain red. If your result is now GBR you could spend two more Stasis Orbs to protect the green and red sockets, re-rolling only the blue one.
This or something like it would mitigate the problem.

Holy shit, that is an awesome idea. I imagine statis orbs would be kind of expensive (not eternal-expensive, but probably more than regal-expensive, depending on how rare they are), but that would still make everything so much less *annoying*.

Instead of Voricci.
Because Voricci requires a huge base investment.
Doing plain Chroms suggested you'd get it in ~400 or something if I read that Calc correctly?
Both the Voricci and that Calulator are based on the same data (in a way, read the reference information on the vorici calc page)
