    Why pay for a fantasia if you can just use an alchemy potion?

    This is a fun idea. Alchemy could do with a little love and I think it would be very popular.

    Good point, though if it was only temporary and limited to a particular look (one for male one for female), I doubt it would affect sales.

    If it worked the way it does in WoW (where you use items not potions), you could transform into creatures, npcs etc that are not available on the character creation screen and only for a limited time, 10-20 mins with a longish cooldown. So for example you could become an adorable little catfish person, a succubus, Viera (one way of getting them into the game) or even take on the likeness of a raid mob briefly.

    That could work. I am not against the idea... was just fulfilling the OP's request for a reason why they would say no

    I remember these items in WoW, and it totally slips my mind what you got turned into...I think one was a ninja? The LONG cooldown was a drawback, but they were fun items and I don't see this having an effect on Fantasia pots either! It'd be a cool thing for Alchemy

    Yep, that's one thing that came to mind, and I also thought that a temporary potion could assist in making up a player's mind on really going in for that potion purchase if they like seeing themselves as another race :]

    Only 30 minutes/only shows race gear and a predetermined skin color/hair style and can't be equipped with anything/breaks in combat.

    Boom. Doesn't effect fantasias at all.
