Stop band-aid fixing the glamour system and just fix it for real

[DPZ2]

Using plates in sanctuaries... 800 storage space...

These are all band-aid fixes to a broken system.

Please just fix the entire system. Just develop a glamour log.

"Adding more space (as requested by many players) + allowing use of plates outside of major cities (as requested by many players) is a BAD THING, because it doesn't work like World of Warcraft's Trasmogrification system."

I assume this is being worked on right now and probably for quite some time but it also might require new db's, new list and some code rework.

The WoW system would be preferable in which you just need to loot or equip the gear piece once and it's added to your log, making the glamour dresser basically obsolete and free up space aswell.

Potentially housing glamour dresses could come with it as a way to save your plates which are populated from the glamour log.

Glad Im not the only one that kinda read it this way lol
The Glamour system isn't "Broken" its just Flawed.

Yeah. It works, but I wouldn't call it a good system by any means.

.....I said it was Flawed.

WoW isn't the only one with a glamour log. There's a reason the "hold item to use its appearance" got hazed out pretty quickly, and it's because of the problems SE is working with right now.

No he didn't say that. Also Blizzard didn't invent such systems. Their first system was very limited but it wasn't too bad considering you only have one class (up to 4 specs) per character. It wasn't until Legion they caught up. DCUO, RIFT, GW2, WILDSTAR had collection based systems before they did.

GW2, for those who sometimes feel dye is a major issue for the system to exist (seen before in this thread, and other ones on the topic), is worth noting to have multiple dye channels as well (up to four, being able to really customize the color appearance).

i suspect gw2 that also had the benefit of the dyes being coded in a sane/competent manner. Meanwhile the code for 1.0 was so far from being that that it's still causing us problems hell i even remember hearing somewhere that the devs admitted that was the exact reason why the glamor system is still the way it is
