    It was suggested alot of times before. And since I love the personalized character aspect of RPG's, I would like to see this implemented.

    - Basically, transferring the visual appearance of one item to another of the same type.

    It can be it the form of a consumable "tool" that is bought with ander.

    Is a win win implementation,

    So, please BigPoint...

    I'll add: a green/magic/pink/legendary/unique can have it's appearence changed only in another green/magic/pink/legendary/unique.

    Sorry, but I see no purpose in that limitation whatsoever.

    Transmogrification is already on their to do list, but the way things are going... you'll never see it happen.

    Okay!
    I hate the way some items look like, and I wish that I could change their looks with some other ones.
    At lvl 50 you have only 2 types of equipment categories... For DK: Titan and Warlord. And crafting gives you the Warlord skin only.
    I've currently got use to them, but I'd still love it if I could change the appearance of some items.

    Another two main examples on why this is a good idea:

    1 - There are a lot of good looking unique and legendary high and low lvl items, that designers spent time, sweat and personal imagination, just to become obsolete at lvl 50 because of their stats / lvl / etc...

    It would be an implementation that I believe will also put a smile on their face.

    2 - End-Game motivation. Imagine those uniques that almost never drop and when they do, we don't use them because the stats don't suit us.
    Now we have a purpose, to use their design on our favorite legendary/unique item that we actually use.

    Don't let this die here...

    You've said it yourself - has been suggested many times, and as bLaind said, it's on their to-do list, but I also wouldn't count on it. There are far more critical things needed for this to be a priority (though they still somehow only deliver cr*p nobody wants - not even minor, but wanted things like this).
    Well, if you want to make a green look like an unique... means you have the unique, so why use the green? Then, since you have both, why would you want to make a higher item look lower rank/colour? IDK, but to me, it'd be a little iffy, so it needs some planning, restrictions, limitations of some sort (it's not like people don't judge via looks, so how this would blend into the game could be a tad complicated). Also, could prove confusing for newcomers, so maybe higher-level should be required, minimal cost (in coins rather than Ander, preferably).

    Hey there guys,

    It was their plan to add that thing in the game. I do remember that! Even, if you pay attention to social media platforms, they made a poll there. Anyhow, perhaps, they had something new (and/or better) to do in the game and they moved it to 2nd plan.

    This has been suggested plenty of times in the past, but we will keep sending that in our weekly reports.

    Cheers :)

    That was May 4th, 2016.
    I also think this could slowly be moving to the top of the list now, together with hudlocking and a more visible mouse pointer, maybe...
    What about renewing the community feature survey? :)

    @UndergroundKiller: As long as you can dye non-unique items in any colour (as it is right now), they cannot be told apart anyway. And many legendaries are better than most uniques. So i don't think there's a need to limit transmogrification - you can safely assume your opponent or team member is wearing either a legendary item OR a unique that is actually better.

    When they implement this ... there will be no limitations whatsoever.
    You can use your helmet skin for your weapon.
    I would like seeing myself ... shooting with a head in my hands. :D

    Why transfer? I don't get it. :)
    I think I would like a new tab "Skin" or "Appearance" in inventory. There are helmet, pauldrons, torso, gloves, boots, 1H weapon and shield / 2H weapon slots. Players just drag the gears they like to SHOW into these slots. Maybe additional option is needed for no helmet showing, bare hand, barefoot. Rendering priority is costume > "Skin" tab > equipments. Just an idea.

    I would like to buy some nice looking weapons and armors from merchant.

    Thanks!
