QoL Request - Dual Spec Loadout (Especially for Console)

Feljax

As the title suggests, I think we're long overdue for a dual spec option. I'm NOT talking about switching between a stamina and magicka build as I don't believe the devs would want that since attribute changes are locked behind a gold wall. But I think it would be beneficial (especially on console, I'm guessing there are addons on PC that do at least some of this) to have an option to save a couple of different setups within the same attribute build. For example, as it stands now on console, whenever I need to switch between my stamina solo build and my stamina PvP build, I need to spend several minutes scrolling through menus and then going through load screens to switch mundus boons.

I envision the option to set up two specs for a one click switch from one spec to another where you could save the following:

• Gear
• Skills (NOT different morphs than what you already have, though)
• Mundus Boon

Certain restrictions would need to be put in place such as no switching while in combat, no switching once you've entered a BG etc. Just a few examples where this would be useful: PvE Trial build vs. Solo build. PvE Healer build vs. magicka DPS build. PvP Cyrodiil vs. PvP BG build etc.

Also (and totally unrelated), for the love of all that's holy please allow us to hide hip plates, crotch flaps, and shoulders in the outfit station.

I do not think Zenimax will allow the automation of changing Mundus. I understand there have been exploits concerning Mundus stone buffs and for that very reason, I expect we will always have to interact with the stones to change them.

Yeah loadouts have been asked for since day 1 & to my knowledge zos has never even acknowledged it. PC players definitely have addons for it & it allows much more than you're asking for

Heck, I'm ok if they decide for everything else but the mundus.

I know several players that switched from console to PC for this very reason. We do have addons that solve this and many other quality of life features. The lack of addons on console is why many made the switch.

Perhaps it is time to join the side of enlightenment.

Haha! As nice as that would be, I (like many others I'm sure) am stuck with console for the foreseeable future.

Yes, I would like to have gear sets tied to outfit slots so you can change them that way. I have suggested it before but the complaint was outfits are just for changing your look.

It would be an easy way to be able to change your gear instantly wherever you are. I don’t care about looks, I want functionality. I switch between thieving gear and dps gear daily now and it’s a pain to do it one piece at a time in the inventory menu.

The gear sets are different styles by default so I can tell which is equipped just by looking at my character.

I thought of adding the option to tie an outfit to the loadout but I figured, the more you ask for, the less they're likely to do any of it...
