It's on its way, but it's just not ready yet.

I'm just going to leave this here...

Nova Crystallis:*How is progress on the vanity slot system coming along? Will it still be released in a later patch or might it make it for the official release?

Yoshida:*The design is already in the system, so it’s just deciding when to implement it. If we sort of add that slot to the UI now it won’t work straight away so it’s just about the timing. I probably won’t add it in the beginning because it might be too complicated and won’t look great, so maybe in six month’s time.

Yup, says it's 'ready' in February, still not out. :/

Even the combined piece armor would be fairly easy to work around, either requiring you to fill all vanity slots that are needed to fully override it or making the unfilled slots display as empty.

Outside the commercial developer red tape this is something a single coder would only need a day or two to put in place from scratch. Its perfectly reasonable to request it be pushed to 2.1 or at least an early hotfix after. There is no practical reason why Vanity needs to be delayed until 2.2, especially giving the demand for it.

You're forgetting about the planning. Do you have vanity weapon slots? How many display toggles need to be added? How will this affect dungeon drops/loot rolls? Everything needs to be considered before it's implemented.

Well this is the same team that decided 3 days of open beta a week before launch was good enough. I don't exactly trust their definition of "finished" or "ready"

As someone stated earlier.

The "Nope" attitude is starting to get a little annoying to me also.

Useless event gear if we cant even use it. I want to fight as a ghost!
