[Suggestion] Added Wardrobe Option

The customization allowed by the wardrobe is awesome to say the least, while it is almost a standard of most games of GW2’s caliber. My ONLY gripe about the wardrobe is that I can’t bind a cosmetic to a slot, as opposed to each item I choose to wear for the stats.

Could there be an option in the wardrobe to spend ~5 – 10 transmutation charges and bind a cosmetic to a slot instead of an item? I would gladly pay that to look cool. The entire thing about end-game oriented gearing and having to pay per item is that you can’t look decent until max level.

I get that I shouldn’t care about my look/style until max level, but why not lock it away until max level. I feel like most features are locked until a certain level anyway. (Which is kind of ridiculous, I have talked to friends that ‘moved on’ from this game and don’t remember a gated experience with many of the features that are now gated. (PvP, skill slots, introduction to game mechanics, etc…))

There should be a middle ground for the wardrobe so players do not have only one option to look the way they would like in a game that offers so much character customization.

Limiting a player to a transmutation charge per upgrade could turn players away. While this isn’t a huge part of the player base, there will be players that enjoy the cosmetic parts of the game more than others and if you limit their options, you forego any cosmetic purchases via the gem store. There are other games that don’t bind per item, or if they do, it is a very trivial amount of currency such as the Waypoints in GW2.
