Glamours and Gear Preview (03/20/2014)

I like how you want to defend an arbitrary restriction by mentioning OTHER very stupidly arbitrary restrictions. Do you realize that someone who hasn't reached level 50 with any class yet (new players, people who are levelling a lot of alt classes at the same time) will be locked out of this system for no good reason? This is a vanity system. It doesn't affect gameplay in the slightest. It shouldn't be level locked, the same way dyes shouldn't either.
At least if the requeriment was a level 15 quest then it would be consistent with the already implemented systems. Right now this is just taking the system hostage because lollol.

Whatever, I don't care. This system might as well not exist for me.

I disagree too, but level 50 should be reachable in such little time I don't think that bad of a problem. If anything it might serve as motivation to get someone to level their first class to 50 right away.

I don't understand why we should have to level to 50 to access vanity systems. I really don't. So what if it's reachable "easily"? Maybe I've got characters who I'm kinda taking my time on, poking around every so often with and who I'd like to dress up but can't because... apparently not being level 50 means they're cut out of the vanity system. And then there's situations like the one with my MRD alt. I absolutely detest the outfit she has right now (well, mostly the massive pants that, on highlander women, make their thighs look ten times bigger than they should), so much so that it's killed my motivation to play her. If I could glamour away those pants into something I actually like... I'd actually want to play her.

There is no reason for restricting access to vanity behind a level 50 quest wall. None. It is 100% arbitrary.

There is also no reason to rage over this kind of things, you will get 50 very fast. Is it silly the devs put lv50 quest wall? Yes, but i wouldnt get too worked up over it and save my breathe to complain on more urgent things, we have voiced our concern over this, there is no need to keep arguing with each other.

We have a perfectly good reason to voice our displeasure over SE making an idiotic move like this.

A vanity system is usually something EVERYONE has access to as soon as they get to whoever can teach them to use the vanity system or they get to an npc who does the vanity junk. TERA lets you vanity as soon as you get to Velika (or the other two major cities), which could be level 11 or even level 1, if you have a teleport scroll, for example. An older game I played let you vanity things as soon as you could find a player with the appropriate skill for it. I have NEVER seen a vanity system of all things locked behind a ridiculous restriction like this.

If it was level 15, then sure. Dye quest is level 15, and that isn't all that problematic, you can hit 15 within a day or two AND it's a reasonably low level to access something like dyes. But locking a vanity system tons of people have been looking forward to since 2.0 behind the LEVEL CAP? How does that make any sense? How is that fair to anyone? As Naunet said, why should people be forced to get to level cap JUST to access something as bloody simple as a VANITY SYSTEM, which has NO gameplay advantage nor any fathomable reason to be locked behind level 50. It isn't like you won't be able to use level 50 gear or lower to vanity over endgame gear once you hit 50, so why restrict it like this for lower level players? Why do they need to be forced to rush to end game just so they can enjoy a VANITY system?

And before someone says "well they don't HAVE to use it", yes they don't, but what if they WANT to? What if they want to be able to wear nice outfits they got while leveling while they're lower level? Why should they be excluded from this? SE's choice makes absolutely no sense, though I don't know why I'm surprised. They've been making a lot of bad choices for a while now.
