One of the things I was not a fan of in FFXIV is that I could join a group with a tank that was dressed up like they were the Los Pollos Hermanos mascot in a full chicken costume, and it was so common for someone in any raid to be wearing some absurd get-up like this that I just kinda assumed this was a FFXIV thing and sucked some mild copium.
Anyway, while immersion breaking is a bit of a meme (even though it does exist and I think the widespread availability of this ridiculous get-up definately broke some previously unbroken ceiling for it), let’s just settle on my point being this: Clanking around as a Warlock in transmog plate is a bridge too far… but a Warrior can tank in Murloc Pajamas? With something like this in the game, do not tell me it makes sense to keep armor restrictions in Transmog.
Again, don’t partake. You will survive others having fun dressing however they want. You already can have an orc in a dress tanking. Or a tauren in a bikini. It’s time has come. Remove the restrictions outside of class sets.
Again, that doesn’t matter. I will have to look at a bunch of classes that don’t make any sense. It’s not like that today. The time will never come.
Would love to see this, especially since it would help reduce some of the sting of not being able to play my desired race/class combo. Now really, I’d like to even see class armor restrictions removed… but I know that’s asking for a bit more than most people would be comfortable with. But really, given that most class armor has off-set versions available nowadays anyway, I don’t think it’d be a huge stretch.
Thing is, we already have off-set pieces and I can look like a different class already. They also lifted restrictions on the Trading Post class “sets.”
I think we’re moving towards “no class restrictions” already. So I wouldn’t mind going the whole way and removing armor type restrictions either.
This definitely isn’t a Death Knight, but this is the entire off-set from Mythic Nighthold.
