Once you have a nice selection of costumes going, finding the exact pieces you want in your illusionist menu can be kind tedious. The following changes should make it easier:
Sort items alphabetically, not by level. Illusionist items haven’t been level locked for a long time.
Use an items base name withour Elite, Empowered or Mythical added. Items that look the same aren’t repeated, but they get added to the Illusionist with the name you first acquired them, so having to search for them later can be annoying.
curious how sorting by alphabet is more helpful than level? (or helpful at all?) - wouldn’t that just require you know the exact name of the item you want to transmog, in which case it’s a more detailed information “storage”/memory required than rough level estimate?
^and if so couldn’t that just be solved by allowing us to manual search/have a search bar like stash and blacksmith does
^^ something i feel like we should have had for a while/stands out a bit since we have search options “everywhere” else by now
I know most items by name, yes. I don’t know what level requirement the first of a MI had when I first found it. Having them searchable by name would also work, but in general, the level is a pretty useless information, considering that MIs and even some unique items exist in multiple versions.
Invisible weapons and shield might be problematic, but invisible options for all other slots would be nice. It’s just that gloves are the armor piece were I found all options less visually pleasing for certain outfits than no gloves at all. And for body armor, there are outfits that are “less” than no armor.
Personally I think shields and off-hands should share illusions. Most of the time the shield selections don’t look great with what I’m trying to do and instead maybe an off-hand would match better. I wouldn’t be bothered if it didn’t look like a shield on my character anyways!
