Widowhail Colouring Requirements

Since Vorici chrome calculator can't help me out, to my knowledge,

I spent over 2000 chromes and most my night chroming this bow after I pain champed fusing (gave up and bought Black Morrigan after burning a lot of fusing+ divine)

I logout the bow not even coming close, and yes I bought those omen of Blanching (overpriced) and tried those as well to no avail.

Maybe I'm unluckiest guy on the planet but I was having a decent time before this event occured. Will try again later.

- PoE 1 needs more colouring options for casual players it shouldn't cost so much just because it's a bow. Let the players play the build... we are going to get blown up by a strongbox anyways

Why not craft them in HO?
If the bow is corrupted, you can use tainted chromatic orbs, which ignore the base item and color completely randomly. That means you can hit 6 red ones on a bow just like you can hit 6 blue ones, in theory. In my experience this was the only way to turn my bow into 5 blue 1 red and that too took time.
I don't know what colors you need, but there are almost certainly easier options than whatever you went with. Spraying chroms (and fusings, for that matter) at an item is just a way to set money on fire; you're just gambling at that point and luck isn't a tactic.

As a general rule, you want to color BEFORE linking if you're doing something really weird (5B on a Brass Dome, etc).
As an addendum to my previous post: This took me less than 2 minutes, at a total cost of 720 jeweler's orbs and 120 chromatic orbs:


the colors I was looking for are 5blue and 1 green

to be fair, if this item simply worked in vorici chrome calculator I could have made a better options to finish it.

update:
I jeweler's orb to complete the bow, I tried corrupting my 6link widowhail and it blew up. we started from three blue sockets and added sockets until it was 5 blue then got the 6th socket

- 1k+ jewelers yeeted
-120 chroma
Perhaps make this combination a NPC exchange for already 6 socketed items

ty all for help
