Character Customization in Destiny 2

I was thinking of a couple things Destiny 2 could have for character customization. These ideas are far from being perfect or completely thought out. but I wanted to see whether it is something the community wants. First off I think we should scrap the "Shader" concept. The problem with shaders is that they don't really let you customize your character all that much. It just lets you choose the general color your guardian will be. I was thinking it would be better if you can choose colors for different parts of your gear. It can still keep some aspects of Shaders such as unlocking certain colors but making them something you can achieve through challenges by doing certain things to get them for example, getting crimson would require you to kill 500 guardians or doing raids on hard mode without a single death. You would also be able to unlock color for your weapons. Another thing that was on my mind was Custom class items. Now this idea is perfect for Hunters and Titans but I'm having some troubles figuring out how this can work out for Warlocks (Sorry fellas, I'll think of something that can work for you). So what would happen is you would be able to choose what type of base cloak/mark your class item will be (Short, long, wide, thin, halved). Then you would be able to choose what color it is depending on the colors you have, you can also use colors you've unlocked (I'm basing this on the Color idea I had). After that you can choose the pictures that will be on the class item and choose it's color. You can unlock more symbols from challenges and raids, for example you can unlock the Raid icon by completing 50 flawless raids. If Destiny 2 follows the current leveling system, your custom class Item can start at 0 light and you can infuse it up. I think this may help Destiny out a bit by giving players challenges to do when they've completed their Weekly strikes, Raids, Nightfalls...etc. (That is if we have these problems in Destiny 2) Someone gave me a nice idea for Warlocks. They should be able to have 2 bonds ( or 1 if they want. ). They'll be able to choose the size of the effect the bond has, the color of the effect, the type of effect and what image the bond portrays . Perhaps they can have a different effect for each Bond if they want to. Like I said Warlock are kind of hard to do this "custom class items" thing with, so please give me some ideas! Multiple voice options is an idea I was thinking about along with options in what your character says in cutscenes (kind of like how it works in Mass effect) Like I said these ideas are far from perfect. I was sitting around eating a lunch when it hit me (I nearly choked and for some reason I thought of this idea). Also please do give your thoughts on the idea and suggestions on how it can be made better. Write down things you'd like to see in Destiny 2! TL;DR: I'm not actually going to summarize what I wrote but you know if you really don't feel like reading you can just copy this, go to google translate, paste it there, and listen to the weird google lady read it to you. I do that whenever there's some huge ass article I don't wanna read but I don't want to actually read it.
