Seducer Set (not what I was expecting)

I was under the impression the Seducer Set (and other sets) had a very cool and different look to them from regular crafted gear.
Yet, after waiting through the ludicrously long "research" times, I find the Seducer gear looks no different from "normal" crafted gear.

My disappointment is legendary.

    You craft sets for the five piece bonus, not the looks.

    Your disappointment may abate somewhat when you can cast spells constantly without running out of Magicka.

    Agreed, the set is worth the effort for the boosts, I was simply hoping for a cool new look.
    Something to show off the fact that I suffered and persevered to create the set

    All crafted items look different based on the style stone that you used to create it. Is that what you mean?

    Well I think the fact you can craft gear in thousands of combinations, let alone dye them in millions of combinations, makes up for the fact that each crafted set doesn't look exactly the same.

    It's far more refreshing to see people wearing what they want to look like, rather than what they have to look like to get a set bonus.

    No Danny, I understand the Styles.

    I saw pics online of some really sweet Seducer gear, but maybe they were Photoshopped images. Or beta, who knows.

    the difference in look isn't the set it is more of the style you crafted it in. Don't forget to add color to boost the look

    The picture your talking about is probably the "dark seducer" outfit

    Or it could be just crafted in a motif that you don't have. If you link the pic, I would help figure that out

    What? You can craft this set in any style (of course, you will need to learn the motif first).
    Crafted sets actually provide you a lot of freedom appearance-wise, unlike dropped ones.
    I guess you just werent paying attention and crafted it with the basic race style.

    It's not craftable. It's a costume you unlock at higher levels. So you can wear it whenever once you unlock it

    You can actually design an unique look for every crafted set you've got.
    And imo, this is much better than wearing freaking Xivkyn SPC set without being able to change it.

    My main crafter is 3 months in now, and still only just getting to 6 traits on most items.

    Incidentally, the OP could get a look similar to that from the Xivkyn heavy chest with other Xivkyn pieces. Motifs are very cheap (500 gold) right now here on the EU, don't know about other servers.

    Sounds like someone fundamentally doesn't understand the crafting system in ESO.
