Feature: Vanity Armor Slots

Description:

Incorporate vanity armor slots in the game's inventory system, separate from the primary equipment slots. These slots allow players to equip cosmetic armor pieces, which have no impact on their character's stats or abilities. Vanity armor is purely for aesthetic purposes, enabling players to craft their unique appearance. These slots will essentially allows players to have the look of different armor sets, without actually using them.

Benefits:

Useful Fair Items: Many players complain about the lack of usefulness in some of the fair items, mostly about how their stats are outshone by other more common items. This leaves event items simply rotting away in a chest as players have no reason to use them.

Player Expression: Vanity armor slots provide a creative outlet for players to customize their character's appearance. This personalization fosters a stronger connection between players and their avatars.

Microtransactions and Monetization: The option to purchase cosmetics can serve as a revenue source for the game as it incentivizes players to buy event armor that will they will actually be able to see and use on a daily basis.

Community and Social Interaction: Vanity armor can spark conversations among players and encourage them to share their unique looks with the gaming community.

Longevity and Player Retention: Expanding cosmetic options can enhance the game's replayability as players continue to experiment with different styles and looks.

One of the best suggestions that for years devs overlook or become their least priority. Most RPG game has this options. Just make sure the vanity clothing is West world theme to be faithful to its concept as one of the best cowboy games

#

The mentioned Benefits of this feature is feasible and may attrack other players and retain players too.

Thank you for suggesting vanity armor slots. We'll forward this to our development team for review. We appreciate your input, and your ideas play a crucial role in shaping the game's future.meme_screaming_cowboy

Just in case OP didn’t intend this, I would add — make the event and native armour/gear, or possibly all gear, equippable as a vanity option. This way the player can choose what they look like with one set and how they are geared up with another.

This allows options like:

  1. Sneaking in gunslinger while appearing to wear Native American clothing and moccasins
  2. Fighting the fearsome gang in t5 sheriff armor while appearing to wear phantom rider set
  3. Defending Santa’s workshop in high level armor while appearing to wear Santa’s Elf event armor
  4. Wearing bearskin armor up north while appearing to wear t1 cloth shirt.
    Etc

Keep the micro transaction revenue stream noted above by making future vanity-only suits.

#

Devs would want to be careful how they implement so that the vanity slots, if using a set that has actual defense stats, could not be used as a “hidden” 4-slot armor inventory for another armor set to be used in canyon trials.

Hmm, that's nice

#

I'd love to see this change implemented but it probably won't happen. Devs probably want you to use the best looking set in combat, getting them destroyed, and having to buy another one.

#

Well, most of the changes are based on players feedback, and this suggestion might get consider since lot of us support it too, will see tho, you could be right, too

tranquil fox
#

I think it should be added as a feature to the armor workbench

#

The 4 slots should be there and if you want to change your appearance you have to swap them out at the table

@tranquil fox
So in description you are saying that they can add ✌️skins✌️and change fair items into them,too so we can kinda change the look of our armor

#

Did I get you right?

tranquil fox
#

Yes

#

I really want this to be added to the game

Where would we find the uh

#

Space

#

On our player

#

For these slots

#

It’s already crowded enough in my inventory UI lol

#

With armor and rings and weapons

tranquil fox
#

Probably another menu

#

Or make it slots that are available only at the armor workbench, that way players cant just carry another set of armor with them at all times

#

It should also only show when you have another piece of armor on, that way you can still tell when your armor breaks

#

Good ideas

Many suggestions were already implemented by devs...hope this will be next

#

Skins are best thing to sell but should be cool enough to overshadow existing Armor design(it maybe just ornament overlay) and should be only accessible to paid player

Did someone say super ultra vip new perks?

Maybe devs dont know how to monetize the cosmetic features of this game. Or to make the code is more costly than they can gain from it.

@viral charm

storm shoal
#

True

#

Many events armors are just in the closet

Those wont be sitting in closet forever if they were skins

#

100% love this idea! Make it happen dev’s!

patent marten
#

Imagine having that as a skin

#

And wear it anywhere

mellow junco
#

It looks cool, unfortunately no one really use them so know one buys them either

#

Speaking of that i wish we can hide hats

#

I suggested that many times

#

What's the point of selecting hair if its always hidden

@tranquil fox
I think it's an interesting idea, especially for vain players. In my personal opinion, I would prefer if the developers spent more time fixing the game's bugs.

#

I wouldn't be tempted to buy those vanity suits anyway, since my phone's settings are designed for durability, and I have the graphics set to minimum.

#

Which prevents me from seeing other players the way they are dressed.

@arctic vapor Could you forward this popular suggestion to the devs?

It's just weird how games like POE make money off cosmetics and storage expansion whereas WS sells all kind of stuff except those two🤷

There are also clothes that you can only get by buying them with real money.
