Trans..mogrifi..ca..shun?? or The Art Of Wearing Clothes You Like With Stats You Like

[Veronica]

I too want to choose the way my character looks. If you want to be anal, take the Aion rules. Cloth can look like other cloth, leather like other leather, mail like other mail.

Wear your cool gear in cities, where stats don't matter.

They design each piece of gear specifically for a reason. If you're wearing a militia cuirass, you should look like you are. Why bother not showing off better gear?

I think it's a fun idea, but I like to see what other people are wearing with out checking. If all you want to do is look cool to yourself you can swap .dats for that. If you want to look cool to other people just remember no one cares anyway XD

I'll have to say, I used to really be against this because it was a "WoW" idea, but it's really grown on me since then.
I really hope they add this.

WoW copied Aion who probably copied someone else being that they are a korean company (no offense).

No offense taken, I never played any of those MMO's btw.

While it's not the exact same concept, it's pretty close, and unfortunately we won't have this with launch, and probably not in the future knowing SE.

RPG Site: Has there ever been any consideration to add fashion/vanity slots to the game? Basically separate slots for equipment that actually gives you stats, with the option of a second row of slots where you can put in other armor. The armor would then be your visible gear—something like that which has been present in other modern MMOs.

Yoshida: This has been talked about, but will not be available at the time of relaunch, as we feel that it will make it harder to distinguish between classes/jobs if their appearance does not match their party role. However, we have not abandoned the possibility of implementing such a system in the future.

Kind of a lame answer, if you ask me.

reason people want vanity slots, but any stats you want will be game breaking.

[Ganbachi]

I seriously want this feature.

[NefarioCall]

i wonder how complicated it would be to further develop the colour modifications? instead of just dying something one of a few different shades, could we micromanage it? Like, sleeves, collar, buttons etc?

I've always wanted to see my monk in gryphonskin gear. I'm all up for this.
