    Hopefully it will be like potions, you can buy or make

    I've worked on mmo games before and below is how I would do it

    First you need to create a transmogrification stone.

    You need to obtain a style materiel and a temper, the temper must be the same quality as the item in the same way as tempers are used in housing, this is a cosmetic thing after all

    So for example, to turn a green quality red mountain chest into the akaviri style you would need the gold scale style materiel and a green temper, or to turn a gold julianos staff from nord to stalrim you would need a gold temper and the stalrim itself, perhaps master crafters could make more than one using the same mats.

    The crown store could then get its cut by offering a universal transmogrification stone which would only require a style materiel, so you can get it in the store or in game. Implementation would be a matter of how to tell the game to draw from a diffrent file and use that to replace the one the item comes with.

    I hope they do something as I like many people are fussy about how the charecter looks, I don't grind dungeons as I just don't like how the dropped sets look and I'm not a fan of the current range of costumes, if I could alter the look I would be a lot more likely to go hunting for these items

    ^This^
    With one more requirement: only a Master Crafter can craft and use a transmogrification stone. And by that I mean lvl 50 in the craft, all traits known. All non-crafters can buy a Crown Transmogrification Stone in the store.
    Any other option means I wont spend another dime on this game, my patience has run out with the latest Morrowind and Crate Scam.

    It'll be both. There is gonna be an in game grind for the feature that requires consumable materials, and there will also be crown store supplements.

    No ETA for it, so my bet - it will be never implemented. ZOS said it is too complicated and they still work on it. I think the game will be dead before this work will be finished.

    TRANSMOG will be Crown Store Only
    After crown styles that require mimic stones, dye stamps, a lackluster 'barber shop', and lackluster housing, I don't know how anyone can be optimistic for style change as a free update.

    The more people want something, the more you're going to pay out the *** for it.
    That's why the Champion System nerf was free. Because only, like, four people would have actually paid money for that.

    Transmog will drive motif sales... it should be FREE.

    I don't think it'll happen at all, or at least, the way people want it to. It'll obviously be a crown store exclusive if it hits the game, and if it does then they'll probably either force you to buy a crown store motif or a 'turn x into y' sort of thing
    And so, Akatosh revealed himself to a young Gaben, and granted him purpose.
    "Grant them Steam sales," he commanded.
    And obey, he did.

    its a good idea putting it behind a paywall, more money for other content. Sub would be good, unlimited transmog. However make it available in the crown store for those that don't sub.

    Subscription and/or Crown Store-based. Especially Subscription-based. Very little doubt in my mind about that.

    Either way, I have costumes. If I have to pay more money for this simple feature I just won't.

    If changing the appearance of your gear is done any way OTHER than through the established crafting system, I'll consider it a colossal failure.

    I hope the do like blizzard did in WoW it was easy and clean thing and let everyone use it which i think ZoS should do as well

    This should have been a poll option, quite honestly.
    Even on the internet, clear communication is important; it can be the difference between "helping your Uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse"; the difference between "knowing your s***" and "knowing you're s***".

    I voted other because zeni never ceases to amaze me both positively and negatively speaking.
    They need to do like Rift.
    Sell the look of every armor in the game im the crown store sans certain raid and special armors. We can already by crafting motif ability for many armors from crown store.

    Second, allow us to change our armor for FREE. Meaning no real money or in game money. Rift lets you put on the look of any armor and weap youve ever owned on your account.

    Id be cool with the swtor or WoW style transmog systems too.

    I hate freebs who *** and moan about a game they dont contribute to,but transmog should be free for all.

    Transmog will bring great visual benefits to those who adore it and plenty should be available for non subs. Subs should have more options to have fun with.

    They already have ESO+ is the only way to dye your costumes. What's stopping them from making TRANSMOG ESO+ as well?

    I voted "TRANSMOG will be easily available for anyone (without DLC/Subscription) and NOT on the Crown Store".

    They will receive a tidal wave of criticism (both from this game's players and the MMO community in general) if they paywall this. I really doubt Zenimax is stupid enough to make that blunder. Although you never know.

    :D:D:D

    I know everything is paywalled in this game, but transmog is something literally every MMO on the market launches with. Paywalling such a basic feature would be PR suicide.

    You mean another PR suicide?

    Nah, people will moan about it for a week tops then quietly accept it just the way they've accepted everything else.

    This or possibly a Crown Store solution because of the well-known ZOS' greed. Can't really decide. Giving 65% vs 35% to the selected scenario.

    There's no way this kind of thing will be free. ZOS will do the same as they did with the costume dying. ESO+ members will probably have something similiar to the gear convertor(Morag Tong, Imperial)and non ESO+ members will have to buy some BS token from the Crown Store.
    If they do make it free(which they probably won't) then: Holy Sh*t ZOS, well done!

    Knowing ZOS it will first of take 3 to 4 years to introduce transmogrification. It will only be available to ESO+ who will then have an option to buy a transmogrification token from crown store at 4000 crowns per item of armor :)

    I can definitely see this as an ESO+ exclusive... just like costume dyeing.
