Besides starting to actually ‘make’ more town clothing, all I want for Christmas is for Town Clothing and Armor (Weapon too, I suppose, hadn’t thought about that) to be handled like dyes.
1. Transmutation stone required to ‘learn’ the style, which is then stored (per character is fine, I’ll let them make me buy trans stones for each character, they have to make money some how) just like a dye.
2. Once you know the image, you apply it, just like a dye. I can change my armor every day of the week, or if I want a special look for taking a resource camp vs a keep, I can do it.
3. Stones still retain their other functionality, and are still one ‘avenue’ you can use to move a rune from one item to another, even without caring about the look.
That’s what I want for Christmas.
I don’t think I should spend $23,426.23 (<- hyperbole + sarcasm = clean energy) each month on Fine Continuum Transfunctioners (I mean, who can’t think of ‘Zoltan!’ whenever you hear Zhaitan?) if I wanted to change my armor on a whim.
And it’s not just the transmutation stones, think of how much you’d have to spend on all the bag space for all the outfits?
I’ve heard the idea of making a collection or wardrobe, and I don’t think it’s quite the same thing. I don’t want a place to store ‘real’ things. If I want different ‘physical’ sets of armor with different stats, that’s a different topic. If ya’ll wanna wardrobe for that, more power to you.
I’m just talking about the concept of making an armor skin or town clothing like a dye. For town clothing, you don’t actually ‘where’ anything, you just apply ‘style’ to each slot, like you’d dye something. For real armor, you apply a ‘style’ to each piece, like you’d dye it.
Mr. Santa, take us out of here. Engage.
