Extremely disappointed with Morag Tong convert gear option...

This was a patchwork feature to get to gear re-styling I was very much looking forward to except;

The list of things that will not convert is ridiclious:

Any unique item
Any named item
Quite a few if not all set times

I couldn't even convert a random staff of the sun, not named, not unique, and while I don't expect every style in the game to appeal to everyone the Breton style staff for my taste looks terrible.

I understand monster helms and shoulders, VMA and VDSA weapons, and maybe even very unique style items like the Lich staff style that only exists for one staff. If other then those and possibly a few other exceptions why are you dead set on giving the players so little control of how our players look outside of costumes which are by and large crown store purchases?

And even those won't cover up a hideous Breton style staff.

    The convert style option has been that way since launch with the Imperial Edition and Imperial Style conversion. It sucks but not really much you can do about it.

    It would seem a transmogrify system would have the same limits.

    Why don't peeps just ask for a crafting expansion to learn possibly sets to allow style crafting.

    Seems more reasonable or likely

    I expected that - it things were different, I -might- have been tempted to spend some more money to get this feature, but since I suspected it would have the exact same limitations as the imperial conversion system, making both quite useless for endgame gear, well...

    And a true transmogrification system without such limitations, that -can- change the style of set gear, would be a very welcome addition to ESO!
    And the best idea I found so far on that account is the "transformation stone" concept here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/340849/two-ideas-how-to-introduce-any-gear-in-any-style-functionality-into-eso-transmog/p1
    ...allowing master crafters to buy the ability to craft magical "transformation stones" for every motiv they know, thus raising the value of crafting And crown store bought motivs (see ZOS? there is -profit- to be made with this idea!), which then can be used by anyone to change any piece of gear to the style they are crafted for (so we'd have breton stones, dunmer stones, dwemer stones, etc.), and might be traded in every guild store...
    ...possibly also requiring a rare to farm base resource to craft said stone (something like nirncrux or perfect roe rare), which them also could be sold in the crown store for those with more money then patience (see ZOS? There's a second chance to make more profit here!)...

    Not just unique/named/set items, had a random chest that wouldn't convert. Not a set piece - didn't even have a trait - just wouldn't convert.
