    Last I checked. Steel is free... Unless you're impatient

    I'm sitting on 53k and I don't nearly play as much as regulars

    By impatient you mean could've had a college degree?

That is why the price for changing the appearance is high.

    I'll be sure to note the feedback down though and pass it along for the team to look at though.
    I wouldn't mind the event stuff costing more than the standard stuff we have available. I just didn't expect such a huge gap. Especially considering how much it already costs to bring something from really low tier to an epic tier piece. These prices themselves wouldn't even be so bad if our standard steel gain per day was even close to half of what one full transmog set costs at epic tier. The reasoning behind the pricing isn't my issue. it's the values themselves.

    53k is nothing. I was sitting on about 40k around season 3? or slightly before it. That's because I never bought things. If you have 53k sitting around you either don't buy many executions/emotes/effects or you only play a small amount of heros.

    I complete all the orders I can from duel pretty much everytime they refresh. I spent almost half this games life span looking like a day 1 player. Accusing me of being impatient to excuse these gross prices is hilarious.

    The prices are quite standard - if you unlocked the gear at your current rarity. Otherwise there is a fee that costs a lot of steel for the visual swap. The price should remain the same throughout, or the 'lower rarity' fee should be minimal; much less than it is now.

    I definitely get that and over the course of the day there's been some similar things said. The price of changing the look to an event item is especially startling if you looted the set at a lower rarity, as the pricing would have been based around the rarity tier it was looted. I'm making sure to collect every bit of feedback on it to get over to the team.

    Just make it flat-rate. 500 Steel, hell even 200-250 Steel. It'll be so much more reasonable, it'll encourage players to experiment with their looks, it'll drive Steel Pack sales for the fashion enthusiasts.

    To re-iterate a point I made months ago; There's an ever increasing number of options for us to spend Steel on, but for over a year now there's been zero boosts to Steel income. These two concepts need to follow each other to some degree in order for players to be able to keep up with the increasing number of choices presented to them.

    Haven't been on today so I haven't sampled this myself but holy heck that sounds like a big let down. 1k steel per event gear piece cosmetic is ridiculous! I thought 1k to refine a gear piece was overboard but this one takes the full cake home and copulates with it.

    Please tell me we're at least still able to loot event gear at Legendary tier if our hero is at Rep 8 or above.

    Can confirm. Have two pieces for my PK so far (Rep 19).

    Thank God I can finally delete the Demon Crush set off my Conqueror. It was an eye sore but I am a collector of all things Conqueror.
