New Armor Cosmetic System

  • Your character’s armor cosmetic appearance is now completely controlled by the costume tab and not by your functional/gear armor. We have separated these two things completely to make it easier for you to customize your appearance and to support future plans for a wide variety of cosmetic options that would have created confusing conflicts otherwise.

  • Weapons and offhands perform the same as before as far as visual appearance. Visually you appear with your actual wielded weapons/offhands/shields unless you override that with a costume option.

  • All costume items you had equipped on any costume pages have been removed and sent to your reward inventory.

  • All cosmetic shoulders, arms/gloves, and boot items no longer exist. All of these cosmetic slots are controlled through the body/suit piece and then toggling/selecting which additional slots to display.

  • Cosmetic armor is now controlled through two pieces: helmet and body (which controls all the other body locations).
