    I'm a returning player and have forgotten alot of things, so please forgive me if I made any mistakes. Before I left a few years back, I was really looking forward to making a properly scrolled Stonetooth as my endgame weapon. But at the time, my life got very busy and I was pretty burnt out from the leech-selling (which felt like a necessity due to lower population at the time) and difficulty in organizing enough people for the harder boss runs. So I left before being able to accomplish this goal of mine.

    Now that I'm back, Im thrilled that Pink Bean has finally been released! However, for better or worse, we now have Timeless Weapons as our BIS now. Then it dawned on me, doesnt that mean I can never enjoy the beauty of the ST sword while doing challenging content anymore (since DPS matters)?

    I was thinking wouldnt it be cool if we could use regular weapons/ equips as skins for other weapons? E.g. I'd invest in making a good Timeless Nibleheim but have it look like a Stonetooth instead. That way we can enjoy the looks of some of the regular weaps/ equips we like without compromising our character stats.

    I'm not familiar with coding/ game design etc. so Im not sure how complex it is, nor do I know if it's smethg in the works. The item could be just be an NX consumable (or even a donor item) where you can select the weapon of your choice, and it'll create a duplicate NX cosmetic copy; so you can put it on like you would for other regular NX cosmetics.

    What do you guys think? I personally think it'd be great to see this. But if you disagree, please lemme know why, maybe I can better appreciate the way things are right now!

    I think it's great, but it basically doubles the weapon assets we have, unless there's some sort of workaround. I'd certainly love to see it

    firstly, welcome back mate.

    I've actually been on other servers where non nx weapons/armors could be worn over on top of the stats / main weapon that folks are using. This method is somewhat related to client side edits and requires 2 pages of Equipment tab (E) with 1 showcasing the stats gear and the other, the cash side (so whichever equip u would like to wear to showcase would be equipped here). This method however, i have very low hopes of it happening here, also would present many glitches and bugs, such as if you were using a 2H weapon, it must be coded in a way to allow the NX page of equip to only allow for either 1. All weapon type or 2. 2H only. The other method is thru the original maple's "Anvil" system, but this was way later and I'm not sure if the team would be willing to backport this onto the server. Hope this helps :)

    Hahaha true, more inventory space is always welcomed! I'm not as worried about this since I dont think we have that many good looking non-NX skins we'd like to carry around, but that's just me haha I think people that play FashionStory probably carry a lot of diff outfits anyways xD

    Thanks! Oic, I think the Anvil method seems more feasible because like you mentioned, probs has less bugs/ glitches. I'd really love to see it tho! Hope this catches the attention of some staff members ;)

    Maybe making level, type and class locked NX items would be the way if this were ever implemented? I honestly would think it's cool to add most non-NX items as cash items, level, type and class locked, but I do understand that this would probably be a ton of work.
    Level and class locked because I personally don't think it fits seeing a level 10 thief or whatever with a Stonetooth and level 110 archer equips.
