Chromatics is too hard

So i've probably purchased about 200 chroms to chrome ONE item and nope nothing even close to what i want. I would always get the complete opposite. So i would want 1 green 3 red but i would get 1 green 3 blue. Honestly i thikn i got 4 blues 90% of the time. How do u even get this to work. Im trying to chrome a pure ES chest to GRRR

GRRR on a pure ES chezt is very unlikely.

The most probable color depends on the main stat of the piece on witch you're applying the chromatic.

Armor = strengh -> red
Evasion = dext -> green
ES = int -> blue

Same logic for hybrid armours where you have 2 more probable colours.
so thats how the chrome system works...

Yes.. it's not that bad as it can give you some expectations to the colors you're getting, but it might be a pain in the a** for those trying very mixed builds.

However this setup is still possible but you'll have to spend a LOT of chromatics to get it, or wait to loot it as is. (I might be wrong but I think the color preference doesn't apply to the items that drop from monsters).

For now your best option is to get an hybrid ES/Ar or for even more probability Ar/Ev.

RRRG on a pure ES gear is going to take you around 2500 chromes in expectation -- and even at that there's still a sizeable chance of it not happening. Save your currency :)

if it is an ES chest it is way more likley to roll green and blue than red
If you really need a pure ES chest, the most likely way to get RRRG sockets on it would be to start with a 6-socket chest. That way you could aim for a BBRRRG configuration, which is nowhere near as rare as getting RRRG on a 4-socket ES chest.

No, it's more likely to roll blue.

If it's ES/EV then it will most likely roll green/blue.
