It's nice that the devs listened to the players that wanted something to put suits on to display them. It's not so nice that they ignored the second part of the request about being able to see the total stats of the suit.

They basically just gave us vendors that can't sell anything.

ya know what they SHOULD do.

they should keep them the way they are, but allow us to rename them (so we can put what suit is on them)

then they should do like they did with the hitching post and house teleporters..... there should be a HIGH END one available from either a 14 year vet reward or to buy it from the store that TOTALISES the suit for ya!
(like they do on test with your toon but EVERYTHING from resists to stats to LRC and LMC ect ect ect)

ohhhhh i should be in marketing!!!

Actually I demolished the house i think. Another possibility was that a co-owned char placed and it didn't belong to the owner so it wouldn't go into his pack.
This is the reason.

Definitely need to be able to rename the mannequin!

I do like them better then using a vendor for the fact that you can now display armor and not have to make your house public because of using vendors though... but if you can't rename them, I probably will stick with vendors since you really need that for a good display. Still a lovely item and kickin' that they actually listened to what we want.

I missed that tapestry so thanks for posting it cause it is very pretty! I need to get my ducks in a row so I'll be ready to x-trade for all the deeds I will need!!!

I have characters on Every shard ..... I am always willing to Xshard Trade... and if you are willing I'll add folk to my list of Trading friends and make as many characters as you need on whatever shard you like.... Save my own GL's.


But just PM me or whatever and I'll see how many I have on your shard.

YAY!! Finally we can put put all those suits of armor for the Wax museum and not spend a small fortune in Vendor fees!! Or worry about them falling if we forget to pay them. Also AWESOME for changing from PvM to PvP suits... I forsee a LOT of these in our future!!!

Edit: After testing more, hubby and I discovered that if you have a co-owner of your house that sets up a mannequin, If you re customize the house everything on the co owners mann pops into the owners pack, yes I understand most people don't just co-own anyone but I can also see where this could lead to problems. Just saying.

I just don't get it.

Has No use unless they make it workable by letting me see the stats.
This would make it a great tool for crafters!



To just display stuff... nehh

At least you can name a vendor " Easter Suit 2004 "
You can also customize a vendor more.
And who can't make enough gp quickly to pay for a house full of empty vendors for years at a time?


But, I still got last years reward tickets as I had no use for them.
It's tough to live in a house with no walls, ( looks like a Dock )
when the dev. keep wanting to give me stuff to hang on walls.

:confused:

I would like to be able to name and customize these (would vault them into star quality item!) but there are two bonuses to these...

1. You can place them in a private house and not have to turn it public to use vendors.
2. You don't have to use up your available vendors to display armor so if you do want to also have vendors you can display your armor and not suck up your vendor slots. This would be good for placing vendors on steps for ease of shopping while still being able to place armor display where you want it independent of vendor placement.

I see another advantage...

People will no longer "mistake" your display house as a vendor house.

How many times out looking for vendors you run across folk using vendors as display and are disappointed to find nothing for sale.



I very much like the idea of being about to "rename" them. I still say I would like to be able to dye them somehow. Just saying...

But I can see these being VERY popular. More so if you could get all the stats off them like you were looking at your own paperdoll...

But Beggars as they say can't be choosers...

Dying would be nice and hair of some kind. I wouldn't even care about changing the style or color if it came with a decent style and color ;) but a chrome dome on a female just looks wrong!

REALLY hope that the devs actually LOOK at what is being said from the people testing out the stuff on TC and change what needs changing to make these items sweet.

Amen.

The fact that on TC they have features that allow you to highlight yourself and see your HCI/DCI etc is EXACTLY what we want for the mannequins.

You should be able to highlight and see the full suit stats.

Now THAT would make it the best anny item ever. As it is - you are correct - vendors that can't sell.
