Yoshi-P, vanity gear slots please!

Ick, it better not only be limited to only certain quality grades. Most of the higher quality stuff is undyeable and the type of ulgy designs people would be using this system to get away from.

I agree. However, in WoW, no one goes around running with anything less than uncommon quality (green) items, which is the standard for quest rewards; whereas in FF XIV the standard is indeed basic quality (white) items, which pretty much everyone uses through their leveling (notwithstanding a few dungeon drops and lv50+ gear). So I wager there'd be no such limitation in our case. Hopefully, indeed!

Well, for what it's worth.. the example Yoshida gave in that live letter I linked back on page one uses Artefact gear as an example of something could be used in the system.. so there's that.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the system in FF XIV will be akin to WoW's transmogrification.

Transmog was a horrible system. Even if they don't end up charging gil for you to apply the 'skin' to your item of choice, which I bet they will, there are far better systems out there that given players more flexibility and satisfaction. That said, even games like TERA and Aeon used a 'skin'/transmog system, so it is probable. Let's just hope they go with (or reconsidered) something a little more player friendly.

Yes it is a horrible system, I'm not sure why SE decided to go with that. I would have preferred a system like in Rift where gear placed in the vanity slots are displayed rather than your stat gear. Rift even has multiple vanity load-outs which you can change ad-hoc without changing your stat gear.

Yes RIFT was definitely one of my favourite systems. I'm pretty sure in WoW your items had to be a certain level in order to be eligible for transmog'ing too; Maybe SE are unaware that people actually want to mix up the look of their gear throughout the levelling process, not just at level 50? A vanity system with lots of restrictions kind of defeats the purpose of it. :\

I support this 100%. I played DCUO for a while and one of my favorite things was having my villain look exactly the way I wanted him to while still having the best gear equipped. It was always fun running around getting different style pieces to add to my collection so I could tweak my style or just play dress up for a lil while.

I don't care what type of a system Its as long as there are options!

[aivedoir]

Writing to support this!

[kollwitz]

would be best to just use the easiest way for something like that.
2 slots for every part you can equip. slot 1 goes your stat stuff, slot 2 goes whatever you want to wear visibly.

or a tab system like in lotro..




it's so simple, really...

Yes, PLEASE.
