    PSA - appearance mods for completionists

    Completionists will want to create a new character and level them up until you get the high end gear. Why? Because there are appearance mods for the low-end versions:



    That's the starter backpack you get at L1

    ROFL. I forgot about the almighty uncomfortable backpack.

    Wait ... does unlocking a Transmog with one character unlock it for all characters?

    "Appearance mods unlocked on one character will be accessible across all your Agents, so make sure you log-in to each of your characters after TU11 to unlock all the gear-looks that you already possess in your stash and inventories." ... "Appearance Mods will be available to all players at all levels when TU11 launches. Characters new and old, standard and Hardcore, will all have access to the library of all gear appearances."

    Guess it's a decent time to finally give hardcore a try.

    Time to start leveling up a 2nd character, then.

    Anyone tested this on PTS? Do you just deconstruct the item or what?!

    Haven't tested it on the PTS, but I imagine there would be an option to add the look of the item into transmog library destroying the item in the process I'd wager, but it should be a separate option than just straight out deconstructing it I believe.

    You CAN destroy the item if you want, but it is not needed to build the library. Once you loot an item after TU11 launches the skin is PERMANENTLY added to the library, so even if you deconstruct an item you still have that visual forever. The only caveat is it only works on items you looted after TU11 goes live. So if you have an item now on the live server you want the look for, do NOT destroy that item until after TU11 goes live. Anything not in your stash or inventory when TU11 goes live will not count toward Transmog.

    On that note, if you have an open character slot, do NOT start that character until after TU11 launches. That way you can get everything on that character in your library right from the get-go.

    no, it should be a auto unlock if already at 40. why should I have to delete one to get something added late in the game

    You might be able to argue the gear your character starts with should be an exception, but the game hasn't (I hope) kept track of everything else you picked up on the way to L40.
