Just like you did with the new VOH items. They’re locked, say where/how to get them, but are still previewable in real time and can be mixed and matched with other stuff. This is perfect!!! And needs to be extended to ALL shop & findable items in the game.
The shop in particular does a terrible job of previewing what the items actually look like and you can’t tell where one ends and the other begins or what the “hidden” parts look like. You can’t tell what they will look like paired up with other items, or what the colors look like or if there are any visual glitches which some outfits have. Many tops come with built in bottoms so you can’t even tell if it’s a shirt or a fullbody outfit or where the sleeves and gloves change. You’re basically buying blind, hoping for the best and there is no way to refund if you don’t like what it ends up being.
Will also make hunting down mounts or gear you have yet to find more intuitive. Wow already does this for a long time, and now VOH too it seems, so I hope it gets implemented to everything soon.
