DON'T limit the Transmog System...

To Armor type...

Most of the MMOs out there that has a Transmog system at place usually limit it to Armor type ( Light Medium heavy )

what i mean by this is Heavy armor only can be Transmoged with another Heavy armor and light armor with light etcetc...

DON'T put a limit like that in this game pls..... Let us Transmog freely in this game our armor pieces...

no.

100% agree on this one. We already have exactly this in the form of costumes and disguises. There is zero gameplay reason to limit it.

I agree and would add that we should also not be limited by armor level, so you could make a cp160 piece of armor look like the lvl 10 version if you want.

I hadn't really given the heavy to light to medium appearance possibilities much thought, but THIS ^ so much!

I Personally don't like majority of the Medium armor look in the game but i love allot of the Heavy Armors....

but as a Stamina DPS im forced into medium and because of that forced into Costumes if i don't want my eyes to burn while playing....

There are costume armours for heaven, medium and light, eg Breton knights, nord scouts and mage robes so limiting the transmog system makes no sense. In pvp you have no way of knowing what armour they are wearing visually until you ty and kill them. Personally I don’t mind as long as I can use lower level styles for weapons, just let me get rid of that aweful rd colour

Agreed, my transmog consists of light armor that looks like medium armor

But arbitrary and unnecessary limits are kinda ZOS's thing...

Gotta think brand identity here.

In the meantime, can we access our guild banks from our guild house, and can our merchant repair?

CardboardedBox

I want level ranks available as well, since most of the race sets have different appearances at different levels.

i don't know....i get where youre coming from and you are absolutly right in terms of costumes...it just doesn't sit right with me in terms of lore and immersion....

Then you have to start worrying far ealier. You can't see my backbar weapon when I'm on frontbar. You can't even see most skills due to ani cancelling. You can't see if I'm a vampire when I put on a servant's costume. Etc.

I still want to make this Yew Order of the Hour bow at CP160:

Kind of like when ZOS saw all those people who told them that they hated being able to hold their bow attacks because their arms were getting tired.

emilyhyoyeon

yeah I don't think there should be limits on this kind of cosmetic stuff

jcaceresw

I agree. I believe the new system should allow us to:

a) downgrade the armor piece type (convert a heavy to a medium or light one, not vice versa)
b) change the armor style (convert a light style to medium or heavy armor style and vice versa. imho, medium and heavy styles have much more visual attractive than light armor in most motifs)
c) change the weapon style
d) for both weapon and armor pieces allow us to select lower level styles (example: make a CP160 breton chest piece to look as a lvl1 one)
e) monster helms only can be downgraded like in point a)
f) probably, each conversion must consume the new stone and the desired style item or leave as transmutation works currently (just the stone gets consumed, no trait gem required)
g) And please, no account bound limit on the new stones and allow us to be bankable. That the reason I never intended to try to get the new transmute stones because it ruins my desire to have fun. Notice they still are bound just allow it to be bankable.

luen79rwb17_ESO

Hmm might be a cool idea but something I definately want to see with transmog is the ability to transmog gear into lower tier styles. I just love low level breton light style for example!

well not sure if it would be good, heavy armor should look heavy, medium should look as medium weight armor, light as light


transmog should be about being able to change the motif (appearance) of the armor/weapons, not its weight

I rather hope, that the "transmog crystals" will not be capped to 100 as the re-trait crystals

Cinbri

I hope it will be made in some kind of costumes - you wear your transmog armor and it can hide tabard.

"Heaven" armors best in slot.

@aliyavana

I showed it in my Restyling Masterpost, you're even the most recent comment on that thread! Here's one costume that you can use that's Medium Armor.



But you can wear that costume and actually be using light, heavy, or a completely different set of medium armor. Or you might not be wearing any armor at all! So since we can already do this, we may as well maximize customization by letting us do this for "transmog" as well.
