Listen up Sts I'm giving you an idea to make money. I call it the "vanity converter"

Ever had an awesome item that you wish you could wear the whole game? Maybe you're crazy about that death armor! Or you you simply love your earth shield! Now you can!

Fiesty Frederick (a bear) has come to make your wishes come true! Take any item you own, bring it to him and for a measly 2 platinum you can convert that item to vanity! Be careful though, once converted your item will loose all of its stats!

Lemme know what you guys think!

In full support of this idea! The group runs would be awesome, everyone would have their own identities! STS do this!!!

Finally I would be able to use a gun over a bow. (How in the world does a bow have more damage?)

Nice idea, unfortunately I see them adding it for 50+ plat

Or a vanity creator - Make your own custom vanity in game :).

- Could combine different styles of gear to make a very odd looking vanity, and you would control the colors, or "extended" perks for platinum. Maybe like the Omni helm, have some super vanity option for 500 plat.

No THAT'S something I WOULD pay 2 plat for!!!!!!!!!!

Skeletonlord
12-17-2011, 04:25 PM
This is an awesome idea MM! You could buy a vanity for plat at the booth as well. Just choose the vanity you want and each one has a plat price ranging from 2 to 5 plat each. I call it the Vanity Vendor!

You mean i can take a cuddle me frost and make it a vanity?! +99999999999999999999999! :D

At first I was trying to figure out why STS would never do this like most other suggestion threads... Then I realized how awesome this is. I have to say a mystery helmet would look awesome as a vanity.

Dang thanks guys! At this point I am REALLY hoping they implement it and for a fair platinum price.

Fao
12-18-2011, 09:54 AM
I have no idea how you came up with that idea but if they make it come true we will thank you for the rest of your gameplay!

I think this is a very good idea. In other games I have played you could equip items in an appearance section or an active section....the appearance being the item shown unless nothing there then it defaults to the active item........then we would all look more unique and give more reason for collecting some lower level items

MightyMicah
12-18-2011, 08:42 PM
Exactly my thoughts! This might help friends at different level still wanna play with each other in hopes of getting drops that can be converted to vanity.

Now I really want to grind in Mt. Fang wearing full vanity Forest Haven stuff..

Nice, but not 2 plat.

You can't even buy vanity items in store for 2 plat.

I see this as a 200 plat ish thing.... (since the bats are 150 plat.. wtf price.)

Buubuuftw
12-22-2011, 05:16 PM
+infinite! Someone pm a dev about this! I'd be decked out in Mystery Armor and Onyx Helms!

Beanmachine
12-22-2011, 09:02 PM
I've been thinking about this too, but I feel STS won't charge 2 plat per item, probably be like 10-20, because nobody would buy their vanities in store.

Redbridge
12-22-2011, 09:10 PM
WOAH!! Why has nobody ever suggested that before? (or have they)

This would be very very cool... and solves the customisable (a little restricted) issue.

Maybe a Gold or Plat version, all the models are there. I don't know coding but how much work would this take to code something that would facilitate a 'vanity convertor' machine....

Would love to hear a dev's opinion on this one...

There used to be some 2 plat ones and slowly risen to 5-10. Now I don't agree with the the 200 plat thing *ahem*rich/poor gap*ahem*. That is a bit overpriced.

12-22-2011, 09:28 PM
Hopefully they'd make it something like five to ten plat and not two hundred. If they do this

nmyxspaceship
12-22-2011, 10:00 PM
Amaaaazing idea! It would be foolish if the devs do not implement this...

I would say 2 plat is low also, but i think 20 plat would be fair to players and devs.

Ooo i can see my bear in that eq armor now!!

MightyMicah

Awesome guys, awesome. Btw I chose 2 platinum because it seems the most reasonable, at least for helms. After all by making a cheaper way to get a vanity helm, it raises the rareness of the vanities in the store, and I believe it would raise overall sales from store vanities because people would want more unique vanities. Maybe not...but maybe ;)

WORST idea ever.*turns back to screen*. OMG!!!! best idea ever!!!STS will probably make you allowed to convert two things a month, or make it cost more plat.

12-24-2011, 11:01 AM
I kept avoiding this thread because I thought it'd say, 100k for 100 plat or something.

Awesome idea!!!! I love it <3

I imagine making this happen would require making the item database twice as large since every item would then have to be added as a xyz "vanity" item. This is most likely why this will not come to fruition.

I love the idea though!

MightyMicah
12-28-2011, 02:25 AM
Actually, I don't think that's quite how it works. I'm no expert, but it would seem to be more of a "molding" of an already existing code, rather than a completely new code with simply the same ingame looks.

This is a great idea!!! It would give value to those cool looking items that we no longer equip.

Wow.. Great idea.. This would help hide the ugly armor :p

For a 200$ per month subscription fee you get unlimited conversions. Probably, anyway

I dislike the idea of 250 plat -.- it should most defiantly be 2 plat

But what if a lvl 6 got lvl 40 armour and converted it would that make the higher lvls mad because ur only a lvl 6, and look like a lvl 40?

True but then ppl would look the same

Mighty? I have probably just gained the most respect for you. This is literally the best, yet most easiest idea to implement and use.

Keep the level req the item had and ditch the stats and attribute req?

MightyMicah
01-08-2012, 08:45 PM
@dugantale, as far as I see it this will not be a problem in the least. Why? Because not all 40s will wear 40 gear and not all 6s will wear 40 gear. No one will "look the same" everyone will look different...? Lol of course it is imo

@Xghostzx well thanks :)

@Mysticaldream wouldn't that kind of defeat the purpose? O.o

Xionskull
04-21-2012, 07:31 AM
Oops i didn't know there was a thread for this idea lol. I suggested that there maybe should be vanity "card. This card could be bought from a N.P.C your name sounded cool. It could be bought for 5 platinum, which is the regular price for most platinum items, and it could be turned back into your regular item for 2 platinum. If someone could not afford this it could be 50k.,, bla bla sorry I double posted I really didn't know this thread was here... Check out mine it has some more details "The Ultimate Vanity Suggestion"

Hey, would this apply to the plat armors at the plat store? Because I love the looks of green chiroptera armor, not so much red and orange.

I have to agree, this idea is totally worth being brought back to attention IMO. :)

Still the best Idea IMO since the main complaint is lack of customization at end game level. :)

MightyMicah

@Windwaiker yup, I was thinking any item at all except weapons of course. and thanks for necroing guys lol
