Why did bungie not implement vanity slots yet?

As seen in the video(by Willisgaming), a big part of the destiny community would love transmogrification What I have noticed in destiny is the lack of customisation. We have all these awesome year one crucible armor sets, raid sets, Iron banner sets and much more. Those who held on to their VoG titan set will know what I'm talking about. [b]It's a shame that we can't wear the stuff we like anymore.[/b] Okay, we all have to move on, but wouldn't you just love to run around in that pair of boots you never dismantled? If only you could use your raid boots' stats and light, but use your year one boots' "look". Transmogrification would make that possible, it is something we see many games, such like world of warcaft and runescape (if you still play that). [b]It works in those games, but how do we implement it into destiny?[/b] Maybe we can add an additional page in our inventory. We scroll one down to our shaders and emblems, and then we have the option to scroll one more down. this page will exist of your guardian and his/her armor (no subclasses, weapons, ghosts or artifacts) Only the gear that can be used as a vanity item. In this screen you see all your gear just like in your original starting screen. Only thing you don't see is your equiped armor. Now you can equip any armor of your inventory in this vanity screen. It will basicly cover up your actual armor with the armor you prefer, while still you still have the highest light/best stats possible [b]But I have dismatled my year one gear already...[/b] Well, as many of you guardians know we have legacy strikes in destiny. These strikes are lvl 20 strikes that mostly have no use to us year 2 players. Bungie could change the loot-table of these strikes so they can drop any year 1 legendary armor piece (including Iron banner and other events such like Queen's Wrath). So there will be no legendary engrams, just year one armor and blue engrams. Even the name of the strike playlist "legacy" fits in with this idea. If the legacy strikes are not an option, then an entirely new playlist called: "Vanity strikes" can solve the problem as well. [b]So in short[/b]: If tranmogrification would be added into the game, we would have more customisation and more diversity within destiny. In order to obtain this year 1 armor that many of us have dismantled, we grind out the legacy strike playlist (or vanity) and get it to drop. Then we go to our inventory and equip it in our vanity slots. Let me know what you guys think, would you like transmogrification being added to destiny? Why or why not? Any ideas or improvements are welcome! Let's hope bungie implements a similair system into destiny in the future :D (I'm not a native english speaker, so excuse me for my grammar etc.) I hope the text wasn't to boring to read, or to long :P -Bearegond [u](Note: exotics can not be hidden from opponents, so if you wear exotic armor, it wil show it anyway)[/u] [b]Thanks for the comments guys, didn't think about this in the first place.[/b]

  • This would be an amazing addition to the game. However, it doesnt have anything to do with the weapon meta, eververse, or crucible so it will never be implemented sadly. That is what they changed this game into. It was supposed to be an open world fpsrpg but, it's all about PvP now and not even a good one at that. Like one of the other posts said below the only way they'll add somthing to the game is through more people blowing this up on the forums or a drop in players. So let's blow up this idea so we can finally be able to actually customize the way we want to look.
