If a transmog/wardrobe system existed, what restrictions should be put in place?

Some of you might not care, but clearly this is a widely requested feature as this type of thread pops up almost everyday. I am a min maxer but I also care for my looks. Min maxers are punished with ugly sets like grothgar or for example argonian styles dropped items and in order to avoid looking at an unpleasant armor set many choose to opt out by using a costume. Many may feel that if transmog should ever exist than monster sets shouldn't be able to be transmogged but yet you can already hide your monster sets with costumes so that restriction would be redundant. Some people might not like it if armor types by weight appearance were transportable to other weights regardless of weight so say making a medium chestpiece look like a light chest piece but in limiting it to only medium to medium you kill variety in customizations and you can already disguise your characters in heavy and medium costume (armored knights and stealthy rogue pack) and would lock heavy and medium users from using a sweet light item like light ebony helms. While it makes sense to not allow a bow to look like a staff for obvious gameplay reasons some people might not like other people trandmogging their one handed axes and daggers into swords and differ only if you use the blade and blunt passive and I myself hate using an axe and dagger and would like to transmog them into beautiful swords Instead. Some people including me would prefer for vma weapons to not be transmoggable since they provide a huge gameplay advantage and should be forced to be visable in cyrodil ONLY. In pve having transmog vma weapons wouldn't harm anyone. So your thoughts?

I like transmog, I want a loose restrictive system that makes it so you can transmog any armor weight to another by visuals and be able to transmog any 2 hander melee into another 2 handed melee and any dw weapon type into another.

I'd like a heavily restrictive transmog system where medium can only be transformed to medium armor, no light armor looking like heavy armor, and absolutely no ability to transmog monster sets and cms weapons

    Changing medium to light etc, shouldn't be a thing. That's a little silly honestly.
    Otherwise, no restrictions other than crafting/motif/skill/in-game progress related ones.
    If you can be anything, be kind.

    But you can already use heavy breton armor as a costume, medium dunmer and breton too, light argonian armor etc, and costumes are civilian clothing anyway so does it really matter? Like ebony to heavy ebony don't look to different and that light helmet looks sweet

    We would have no idea what restrictions would be put in place other than the armor weight will still look like the same weight. Really just pointless speculation since Devs have given no indication what it would look like since all they have said is no to the idea.

    This.

    They really should add a 10th trait with the reward being that you can now alter gear to any learned style.

    I feel the monster sets should be left alone. I embrace their ugliness :)

    Therein lies the continued use for costumes, making both systems; transmog and costumes, still have value.

    Makes too much sense, so we'll never see it lol!

    Truth is we won't get this because the system, as-is, forces purchases of Crown store costumes!

    I would like to have the ability to merge two items together. Would have to be same type of weapon (sword for a sword) and same quality. Basically the merge would destroy one weapon putting its racial style on the other weapon. With armor the restriction would be same equipment slot.

    You could get a crafter to create the weapon/armor that will be destroyed in the process.

    I would be okay with needing a master crafter to be able to produce the piece about to be destroyed and it taking a certain stone or something to do so. Maybe a trait that makes it able to be merged?

    This would make crafting viable and shouldn't make merging overly expensive nor hard to get the extra piece needed.
    and then the parrot said, "must be the water mines green too."

    Honestly, I'd prefer a "cosmetic slots" system - where you have a second tab of equipment slots, and the stuff you put in there, you get the visuals of.

    On the one hand, it wouldn't destroy items like a merge/transmog system would (removing bloat from the economy), but it would encourage people to farm/craft more gear to fill those visual slots. Plus, you could use items for visuals that don't have a motif/crafted version available. (Encasement of Anguish, for example)

    i think it beeds to be somthing within crafting. Require you to know the motif and allow you to have a crafter upgrade it for you through a special trade window.

    Also just for simplicity sake make it only change light to light, heavy to heavy for appearance...

    I REALLY want this...my favorite costume has the stupidest looking helm. So id love for my skoria shoulders to be changed to nord style to compensate XD
