I posted this on the beta tester forums, if anyone cares for this PLEASE help bump it. X_X Quote:

I foresee everyone raiding in Black Tuxedos with Pimp Canes, or tanks with fishing rods.
It's a nice idea, but there are a few downsides like mentioned above. |
I very highly doubt that this will ever happen, sorry OP. Blizzard has said in the past that they want armor, especially tier pieces, to be recognizable. This is also the reason they do not allow us to turn off shoulder graphics. If you're in ICC killing LK, it should LOOK like you're wearing epic armor to fight the final boss of the game, not look like you're wearing lederhosen from Brewfest. IMO it takes away from the "epic" feel of it all.

This is really far from the first time a suggestion for "stats from one set, appearance from another" outfitting has been made, and personally I embrace and support such suggestions wholeheartedly. Probably because all my current main characters are on role-playing realms, derp.
Variety in gear once you hit endgaming (which plenty of people tend to do within tops one month after the release of a new expansion) is just non-existant within classes. Even the more powerful non-set items you'd upgrade to now and again have the same appearance as the set item you upgraded from. It's like being part of the most extravagantly clothed militia ever formed. |
Many folks (especially those on Roleplaying servers, myself included) would love to see some sort of expanded horizon like the above proposed appearance tab, or an armor/clothes dyeing system.
I'd support this. Sadly, no beta key. No ability to post there. One thing that amuses me so far as Blizzard's homogenization of gear goes is when I was looking ahead at what sort of gear my Discipline/Shadow priest would be wearing. 2 different sets of gear, both with the same models and coloring. Specifically, Zabra's Cowl of Conquest and Zabra's Circlet of Conquest, but by no means limited to this. Anyone can choose to raid in a silly outfit if they so desire, they just won't be able to survive the encounter. Blizzard's character customization is rather lack-luster compared to some games and this would add some sort of depth to it without having to go the direction of cash shop (looking at Perfect World International for example). |
