So, similar suggestions have been made to allow us to wear any item as a vanity item.

 

Here is a slight alteration of that idea, a paid for service that allows us to convert regular items into wearable vanity.

So, I have my occult set intact but would like to continue to display it. I travel to the Fashion Merchant and pay for a special type of thread spool (graded based on level etc: small gold thread spool 5G, regular gold thread spool 10G etc) Since my occult gear is level 20 I require 1 reg. spool for gloves, boots, helm, 2 for legs and 3 for chest (azraq would require the same corresponding number of small spools)

(This idea is based off of fusing gem process in case anyone points out the similarity :P )

 

Then I go to the converter and "craft" my bound vanity version of the original item. This way, any wearable piece of armor, can be made to vanity if the player likes it enough and it introduces a costly gold sink.

 

In this way you could also convert these items back to bound wearable armor items should you so chose to pay the same price to undo the process....  ;)  

 

 

Comments and feedback welcome to help refine the idea (as well as links to other topics if it has been posted somewhere else and I missed it along the way  :lol: )

It could be linked into the same building as this to improve storage of (bound) vanity items:

Price plan for the thread may be too high or too low depending on how you view it, but I think alot of players would go for it...

the idea isnt bad - but i doubt that if it comes to the game, that it will be gold based ... 

 

its pretty much a idea for new EP vanity items ... Like Path of Exile got it - Imprint Scrolls, where you can copy a look of an item and attach it to another.

 

If this service would be gold based i think most of the EP vanity items would loose their value.

It wouldnt necessarily have to be gold based, the spools could be EP based or more costly to preserve the value of shop bought vanity.

Plus it doesn't just apply to relic gear. You might love a particular drop from a low level mob and want to show off that item...
