Default Armor Preview Box
Similar to the Dye Preview box, we should be allowed to preview our armor we are going to craft (or not) on our character. I cannot tell you how many times I've wasted 15k+ to buy a piece of armor to find out it looked HIDEOUS. Yes, there is a screenshot request thread, but I don't want to spend weeks to find out how it looks, to not even have the dye right, ect.

Thoughts? Ideas?

This has been suggested countless times. Also a way was found where you can see how armour would look on your character. It involves getting a friend with the armour you want to preview to trade you his armour, and then you try to dye it and the preview of the armour will come up on your character.

Yea, too bad wiki doesn't have an exact replica of your character, hair, ect.

IIRC gender and class were irrelevant... the dye preview automatically switches it over to the correct class and whatnot, just like the HoM did once that went account wide.

Most of the clipping issues are noted on the wiki page, though, which is better than nothing.

Still, this would be a nice feature, and even though it's been here numerous times, /signed again

Helix, please search before you post ideas. While you're at it, learn how to post too. I'm tired of deleting your posts.
