I would love to see a function to right-click and split armor skins to buy whichever
part I want seperately. Possibly for 150 gems per piece.

Why? Because it’s more friendly for everyone who just wants a piece or 2 from a specific set. While full sets sold will decrease, sales of pieces seperately would increase from both the rich and the poor. And making it a bit more costly to buy the pieces seperately would create some sort of balance, but yet more efficient if you just want 3 parts and don’t wish to spend 800 for the whole set, meanwhile being rewarded with a bonus for buying the complete set.

Great idea. Maybe they would actually do it if there was a sliding price schedule, similar to the way Dungeon Armor is priced (in tokens):

Full set 800 gems

Helm 150
Shoulders 150
Chest 300
Gloves 150
Legs 200
Boots 150

The 6-pieces would cost 1100 if purchased separately. Chest and Legs, generally the most visible and sought-after pieces, would cost 500.

Makes total sense to me.

I probabl still would have bought the complete viper set, as the only item I don’t care for right now is the boots, but I would have loved to have the choice.

I could also have bought just the gloves and shoulders (that I use on my main) and the top, skirt and possibly eye thing would have followed later for my alt, resulting in me spending MORE than 800 gems.

And, scenario three, if I run around in my new viper (or partly viper) outfit a lot, I might find that I really, erally like those glovesm and want to pick up additional pieces for my alts, but I am unlikely to spend the whole 800 gems a second time around.
