Allow Costume Pieces to be used in our Custom Outfits

I never plan on buying another costume again now that the outfit system is out and I would rather look unique from everyone else than a static outfit. The only thing about costumes that I like is that they reign supreme when it comes to civilian clothing. The noble suit in particular has my favorite coat in the game. I would like it if this coat was available to be used in my steampunk outfit as a chestpiece but sadly it is stuck to a costume. If you would like to get this ones revenue and perhaps many others who have ditched costumes in favor of unique outfits, please consider adding costume pieces of the various costumes in the game such as the noble suit into the outfit system under the clothing classification (which has the prisoners rags and future undaunted styles)

Above is the sections a costume can be divided into for use in the outfit system.

Above is the clothing section that prisoners rags and undaunted set appearances go, would be nice to see costume pieces go in this catagory.

Above i was going for a Steampunk Look, a coat would help achieve that desired look I want.

    Oh, i'm pretty sure it's planned, from the start. We'll have costumes pieces made of pre-existing costumes for use in the outfit system. They'll be sold separately for crowns.

    I see what you're saying and definitely support it in general, but for this one particular use case I think that would be hella complicated. Are you saying you'd want just the overcoat part of the outfit? I would figure that would have to be tied to the chestpiece.

    I hope they go and add those pieces retroactively for all the costumes we have bought in the past. I know many of us bought costumes in order to hide our gear before outfits were created. @ZOS_GinaBruno any chance you can bring this up to your art team?

    that's what I mean, the chest piece would be the coat. outfits also tend to have the best boots and some unique looking armor.

    not everyone understands the steampunk aesthetic which I was utilizing from clockwork. If you don't like a particular thing it would help if you pointed out what you didn't like instead of being vague

    If you've bought a guar mount already and they release yet another skin of the same guar mount you have to pay for it again.
    I don't see why they'd do things differently with costumes and outfit parts made from them - and I'm pretty sure many people will buy. Again.

    Hmm. I could see this being difficult - or at least a good bit of work - since there's a number of costumes that don't quite fit into the armor locations cleanly (some of the dresses, for instance).

    Personally, I'd like them to get the rest of the rare/drop armors (Encasement of Anguish, etc) & the looted civilian clothes into the system first.

    If it allows you to be more creative with your characters and have more fun then this one approves whole heartedly .

    Agreed, it does increase the potential creativeness and customization of the Outfit System ... something ZOS has embraced in the recent past.

    I hope zos sees this opportunity to unite the outfit system with the costumes.

    Would be nice if outfit could overwrite costumes. Than when we buy costumes - we could use outfit to synnergize with costume and change parts. Everyone wear same costumes but anyone could make their costume to look unique and differently.

    I just would like this feature and wish the art department prioritized its implementation.
