100480-costumes-cant-use-higher-level-piece-for-looks-unless

== Content ==
			
So... I am an Esper, level 21. Light armour is my class. I bought a level 34 Light armour chest piece. I can not use it for my costume. I don't care about stats or equipping it, I -only- want the look of the piece. It seems I can't.
 
Either this is a bug or...
 
I can however use a level 34 heavy or medium armour piece as my costume look.
 
Now, either one or the other is a bug. Does anyone know which? Because it neither are bugs, that's sort of stupid...

			I must say this confuses me. None of my characters can use any armor that has a level requeriment higher than their current level. However, I know a friend of mine equipped higher level armor without any problem. Maybe this is a bug only suffered by light armor users. Though I'd say it is really an advantage and how the system should work by default. There's no good reason to stop us from using higher level items in our costumes; specially considering we are still paying for them at the same price than if we were the correct level.

			Don't think it's a bug. It was allowed at some point but was changed. Your esper can use heavy armor as costumes, but the level restrictions remain.	
----
			Please note that some gear says something among the lines of "Base Level: 45" (for example) and is stat wise identical to a level 45 piece but has no level requirement and usually is gotten from quests.

			I used a level 34 heavy and 34 medium for looks and I'm a level 21 Esper. Are you saying that's a bug because it'd make sense. I really wish a higher up or dev could confirm all this crud because I paid 30 gold for a different light armour that is also 34. I LOVE the look, paid the 30 gold but can't use the look for my costume? That's messed up...

			No, there's a difference between 'required level' and 'base level'. It's on the tooltip.	
----
			So there's no way for me to use the appearance of the level 34 piece on my level 21? Seems sort of weird I could use heavy or medium of level 34..

			Weird, works for me using higher level pieces to costume. Well did, havent tried it since because I havent found a better look. And I am talking about my esper.
