Okay so I may just be going off here, or maybe it's already in the game and I just haven't found out how to do it yet but please! If it's not please add style locking to Wildstar.
 
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about here's a little example; So you get some nice gear together and it has some pretty good stats, you pop it all on and wow! You look like a total badass! The only problem? You find a new piece of gear that makes your current one look like it should be worn by the children of one of the starting enemies (Malfunctioning Medbots and Dominion Monstrosities to be exact) but as soon as you equip it you're going to loose a piece of that badass appearance you've always wanted to keep. Now trust me here I hate to bring other games into this but do any of you remember playing DC Universe online?
 
Now before you decide I need to be killed for "Soiling the Wildstar Forums with another games name" remember this is just an example. Anyways I digress, remember in DCUO when you could equip a piece of gear and then it's style would be added to your collection? Why doesn't Wildstar? I'd love to be able to keep a hold of my Warrior's one sleeves chest armor and his medium tier fingerless gloves! Now I said this before but maybe I'm just being stupid and this is already in the game, if it is tell me please..oh and don't say that it's to do with costumes because so far none of that has been working for me..trust me..I spent about an hour along with two gold and thirty-two silver trying. 
 
Leave your comments below and tell me what you guys think. Thanks for taking the time to read this I'll see you all on Nexus, take care!

			Ahmmm since you're not using the item as stat gear, why not slap it onto a costume slot?!?!

			OP is not talking about the costume slots (which we get 6 of) He's talking about where you can equip ANY piece of gear at ANY time and NOT change the character's current style(look). without having to go to Protostar npc to make changes. Though I am quite sure that Protostar would protest this type of change in the game...for money!	
----
			well, what you are asking for is EXACTLY what costumes provide, shuffle through the guides on the forum, there surely is something that explains it thoroughly

Oh. Dream on, OP. The npc locked costumes change is what lead me to write my signature. 
That is a hopeless cause. We tried to get them to change their minds but people having extra inventory slots as the costume slots bothered them too much to let us have costuming on the fly.

Oh I've tried, like I said two gold and thirty-two silver later and nothing!

I don't know why you shouldn't be able to swap that old item into costume slot 1 with nothing else, when you go talk to the npc.
 
If you are complaining that you have to talk to the npc, I understand. If you're complaining that it's extra effort to go put the old item into costume, I understand.

If you're complaining about anything that has to do with costumes and dyes, I understand.

Ain't that the truth? But hey, even costumes and dyes have to be hardcore, by hardcore meaning inconvenient.
Because you need to walk in snow up the hill to change your undies!
Oops, you can't do that. But you can have some clone pervert undress and dress you. Woo-hoo.

Um...
 
Don't know what to say. This is exactly what costumes do, and costumes do not cost money.

switching costume peices doesn't cost money. Dye application does.. but only if you finalize it. I'm not seeing how you'd waste money unless you got click happy.
 
Care to elaborate how you wasted money on the costume system? 
 
The longest I've ever looked... off .. because I had to equip a new item and ruin my asthetic was a day. Mainly because I was in a groove and leveling and didn't want to stop at an appearance modificator or return to my main city. Once I hit 50 the longest I've had to wait was 20 minutes (housing cooldown). Go to my house, take a port to the farside biome from the fabkit, take the ship to thayd. 30 seconds.. back at a modificator.
