As title states, I’m using my crafting to make my exotics for stats, but I don’t like the way the set I’m crafting looks. Transmutation to the rescue! (I have all my level-80 worthy transmute stones ready to go)

Problem is, I don’t know of a great way to see ALL possible armor models in the game such that I could plan my look – I’d want to be able to pick & choose specific pieces from lots of different ‘sets’ or models that exist. Does anyone know of a resource to do this? Website? Phone app? Method in-game that’s surefire?

I forget where it is, but I just saw a thread with all exotic armors and looks. I would use the search topic for it.

The problem with such a search is that I’m looking for more than just exotics, and more than just sets.

For instance, say I really like a level 55 crafted helm (I’m making this up, but suppose) and a level 80 rare pants, and a level 75 masterwork shoulder, etc. I want to see what they all look like together without having to commit my (exceedingly rare and expensive) transmutation stones, and also without having to find each of these items in game and use the Preview feature.

Oh…. welllll. I’m sure there are more databases out there. At least the exotics one will help you get started

Yeah I appreciate that, thanks. I like some pieces of the exotic sets, and might use them here and there, but it gets expensive to make or buy TWO exotics just to get one. I’m broke and cheap, so, looking for the most efficient way to get what I want. 8 )

I checked in the PVP Locker and found the armour I liked.

I bought the lowest level I could on the TP. Transmuted and now I’m a happy warrior.

@ Kissy,

The PVP Locker has all armor models? What do you mean ‘bought the lowest level I could’?

I think it has most of the models but not the cultural sets or the dungeons . I bought level 50 of the set I liked because it was cheaper that the 80 and transmuted to my crafted stuff. The PVP locker also lets you preview all of the pieces so you can mix & match.

Wow, what a fantastic suggestion, I had no idea! I’ll be sure to try that.
