Please bring back these cosmetic armors

[Eternity25]

I know it's been requested in the past so I'd like to make the suggestion again.

Please bring back the Spiral 1 Cosmetic Armor Kits as Cosmetic Armors in the Gray/Lavender and Gray/Pale Blue Spiral 1 combinations. Those were the most popular and had one of the most attractive cosmetic designs for female characters. They would be a top seller in the cosmetic gear section of the DDO Store.

Examples:

Female:

Spiral 1 Gray/Pale Blue Heavy Armor



Spiral 1 Gray/Lavender Heavy Armor

I think that in general if they would invest some time in cosmetics, armor dyes etc it would be a big succes. Have separate slots for helmets and goggles, cape slot etc etc. In every game I played people buy cosmetics like crazy.

we could still use a dimensional cosmetic inventory closet..

a tab on the character inventory.. template based on the cuti-pet inventory..
stop using up inventory tabs for cosmetics and have them as account accessible on the fly.
we have hireling folders, cosmetic pets in a separate storage, but not cosmetics....

Then we could buy many more and add to the closet without screwing up valuable inventory space....
I've had to add another character slot and TR'd it just to have a TR cache for cosmetics due to space limitations..... its not how cosmetics should be...

for instance.. I did these cosmetics for the weapon auras since no one else had at the time..



and just like that 13 inventory spaces lost to cosmetics for a two hander weapon..
which.. made DDO money ... for the glamering and the aura...
let alone all the other cosmetics I have purchased over the years..
or the ones I would purchase if I had the space..

Another example of cosmetics done right is how they're done on LOTRO side.

They did a great job for cosmetics over there.

I'd +1 you for that effort but apparently I have to spread around more before I'm allowed.

Hehheh. I always feel so dirty when it tells me that.

I agree if they would bring back these cosmetics in particular I would purchase the lavender light armor, and lavender light skirted, and turquoise robe all without accessories covering up the original and lovely design. So at least 3x purchases.

Personally, I also desperately want them to bring back Violet and Sea Green Beast, I liked the heavy and medium skirted varieties. There was also a Spider Style that never got pictured on the wiki. With the advent of dragonborn I'm thinking Red Leaf would also look very attractive on a red or black scaled character.

As I understand it these cosmetics were originally coded as potions of some kind and they've said its not cost effective to convert them to the new BTA cosmetics. I'm having difficulty wrapping my head around that though because presumably the art files should be available and accessible somewhere. If its so time consuming making them into the new cosmetics why can't they attach the appearance files to new items and let us Mirror them?

Why not post images of the so far unconverted cosmetics and let us vote for the ones we want to purchase? Then they would have a rough idea what they could make the most profit from and we would get some new cosmetics.
