I agree completely. I have no idea why the original town clothes became a tonic instead of an outfit. I know it’s not possible to keep them as separate pieces to mix-and-match but considering there was a complete set it should be easy to combine them into an outfit like they did with the pirate and chef costumes. (And we know from the wedding outfit they can have ones which change based on your race and sex so that’s not a problem either.)
Like you I thought it would be a perfect ‘starter outfit’ and may actually lead to more gem store sales. At the moment you can completely ignore the outfit tab unless you’ve already bought one, or you got the free one for having an account before Play-for-Free was introduced. But if new players (and everyone else) got a free outfit to start with, like we used to with town clothes, and were told about it when they first unlock outfits, it would give them a reason to go into the tab and experiment with the functionality and then they’d be more likely to buy others.
But also I just miss my town clothes. I used to use them regularly (I even had a keybind set to switch between them) and ever since the wardrobe update the tonics have been sat in my private guild bank, because they’re not worth using and not even worth selling.

No, we don’t all miss it; the old system was really awful in my opinion. The only thing I miss is that they never added some of the old skins to the wardrobe.
The new system is easier-to-use, easier (for me) to obtain charges for swapping, and is account-wide, permanently (instead of temporary and character-bound).
I also like the outfit system: when I’m leveling a character, I don’t have to transmute to maintain the look just because I get new gear.

Levelling? You mean click on 80 ToK right?

They should be converted into outfits already. They are rigged, scaled, textured, coloring masks are there. Old default town clothes could be an outfit unlocked at cc, rest of the tonics, well why not tradeable unlockables.

No, that’s not what I mean.
