Detailed Crown Store suggestion, Custom Costume Slots. (lots of pictures to explain how)

you simply buy a slot, then right click the slot to either save or equip your current visual equipment to save as a costume!

even if you had to pay per slot (maybe gettting 2 or more in a package) would you take advantage of this if it was in the crown store?

i know i would love to have some of my armor sets visual styles as costumes for other characters...

imagine making this,

a costume if you wanted, simply knowing that it would take up one slot as long as you want that costume.

for instance, you buy one costume slot and it looks like this.

you then right click, and on the prompt name and choose "Save New Costume" or "Discard New Costume" to cancel.

then you get this..

and you can on any character use that equipment look as a costume!


Crown Price Suggestion

1000 Crowns Per Costume Slot


i know my little MS paint thing is by far from the most professional edit job, but i think it shows the idea clearly.

oh and obviously, due to the eventual number of costumes, we are going to need sub catagories for costumes, like custom, bought, disguises, reward

ZOS could make much money with the people who love to customize looks, more than just selling stock costumes by selling slots for self made looks like this..

YOU HEAR ME ZOS.... MONEY!

AND I WOULD PAY YOU MONEY FOR THIS.

    This is pretty much EXACTLY what I was thinking when I suggested the following in the Crown Store Item Wish List thread.

    The only exception is I think, for the sake of making money, it should be a consumable. You use it, then you have the costume. Want another costume? Buy another blank costume to imprint upon. This way some people would buy 2 or 3... some people would buy dozens.

    Allowing us to over-write the costumes would be cool to where, as you suggest, it's a custom costume SLOT. Whichever way would be fine with me!

    +1 Awesome for you sir!

    hey ZOS.... i know that a reuseable single slot might seem like a bad thing, but consider this...

    for ever 100 or so who only get one to make that one look they like....

    there are 10 who probably get 10+ to have a wardrobe,

    and collectaholics who want to make so many costumes, they end up with 100 or more


    im probably right between the 10 and 100 mark myself.... there are lots of low level gear i love the look of.... i would start spam crafting stuff to make cool looks and would NEVER be satisfied with just one or two costumes.

    Implement this...

    In all honesty, a lot of the armor looks pretty bad in my opinion so it is always depressing to have to give up the pieces you DO like to remain useful.

    I was nearly going to make a thread suggesting this, and I thought "Nah, someone is bound to have said this already". And look, here it is!

    Unfortunately for some there is a compromise between functionality and appearance. A custom costume system would remove this compromise. The best part is people would pay for it.

    Bloody brilliant idea, I would pay for this. +1

    Sounds like a good design. The question to always ask when proposing a new feature is "how could this be exploited"?

    The only exploits I can see here are:

    - someone with full VR20 Imperial Daedric Glowing Death Plate of Awesome Dwemer Encogglement could turn it into an outfit, decon the equipment, and then run around even on their lvl1 char, as if they still had it. Not a huge deal, though, as bind-on-equip means that you couldn't just pass a cool outfit around to all your friends and let them all make a cosmetic outfit copy. All you could do was decon or sell to npcs. To have an item shown in an outfit, you would still have to have owned that item and had it bound to you at some point, other than for the very lowest level items.
    - someone can create an outfit that looks as if their build is completely different, so tricking PvPers into using less effective attacks against them. Again, not a biggie, and arguably a benefit of the system.

    Am I missing anything terrible?

    you can already do this with current costumes and disguises... its been done for a year now.

    only the armor and how its dyed can be done as a costume.

    I like this. GTA Online has a selection of about 10 outfits, plus more in premade outfits.

    I would spend a couple bucks to have some custom-made costume slots.
    Ruze Aulus. Mayor of Dhalmora. Archer, hunter, assassin. Nightblade.
    Gral. Mountain Terror. Barbarian, marauder, murderer. Nightblade.
    Na'Djin. Knight-Blade. Knight, vanguard, defender. Nightblade.

    XBOX NA
    Ruze is a veteran of the PC Beta, lived through the year one drought, survived the buy-to-play conversion, and has stepped foot in the hells known as Craglorn. He mained a nightlbade when nightblades weren't good, and has never worn a robe. He converted from PC during the console betas, and hasn't regretted it a moment since.

    He'd rank ESO:TU (in it's current state) a 4.8 out of 5, loving the game almost entirely.

    This is an multiplayer game. I should be able to log in, join a dungeon, join a battleground, queue for a dolmen or world boss or delve, teleport in, play for 20 minutes, and not worry about getting kicked, failing to join, having perfect voice coms, or being unable to complete content because someone's lagging behind. Group Finder and matchmaking is broken. Take a note from Destiny and build a system that allows from drop-in/drop-out functionality and quick play.

    Fashion is considered one of if not the biggest optional markets on the planet..

    some people will spend thousands of w/e unit of currency just for a outfit they wear ONCE, with the rich doing so on a nearly daily basis.

    even the average joe will consider how something looks in addition to simple functionaility (workmen wont wear Pink Jeans etc)

    THERE IS MONEY TO BE MADE WITH THIS OPTION IN THE CROWN STORE!

    i will bring this up as many times as i need, and let the sheer awesomeness of the idea keep it alive as well untill we get some voiced opinion from ZOS.

    we all want custom costumes... why not put it in this way?

    This really is a great idea, and the first post proves why: no insult meant, but that outfit looks uninteresting to me completely, in fact I'd like to cover up armor like that with some costume so I don't have to look at it. (Again, no offense to op, I'm sure you would find my costume idea boring/repugnant/stupid/lame.)
    Edit: to clarify the point I'm making, one person's "boring" is another's "awesome", which is why your crown store will never succeed like it should unless you are offering us creative freedom in it. ZOS' idea of appealing/cool/fun will only draw a purchase from a small percentage, but enabling us to make our own appealing/cool/fun costume will draw a purchase from everyone who would want a costume.

    probably that getup gets as many "thats cool" and "what is that outfit" as well as people who tell me flatout they dont like it.

    tho the people who dont like it being the rarer of the two it serves its point in this topic as a clear showcase of what players can make with their gear for unique looks which might not be item effective (tho the sets used in that picture i use to tank Scantum Ophidia with)

    i personally would love the option to make Imperial Royal Guard armor a custom costume.

    Full Imperial Heavy armor with Julianos White for the main, Akatosh Scales Gold for the trim, and a combo of white again with the head piece using a good red...

    Imperial_Watch_Armor.png


    you can get really close to that kind of thing in game...

    and of course, there are LOTS of lower level armor visuals that look fantastic that i would love to be able to freely mix and match into a custom costume.

    i honestly think this would sell really well alongside ZOSs "costume Packs".

    I'd pay real money to get extra "costume" slots that I could use to equip the stolen clothes I find since none of the crown store costumes are making me happy right now. Would also be nice to be able to hide other armor parts besides the helm (think shoulder pads here).
