Suggestion: Dim Tree Armor/Blackstar Armor/Red Nose Armor conversion into [Honor] Armor piece
With the introduction of Fallen God Armor, Dim Tree as a costume and other end game chest pieces have been made unobtainable by people who progress their gear to the next best slot, since the decision was made to extract the caphras out of said armors without penalty for players who were over the C10 mark. This has made these armor pieces virtually obsoluete for anyone who is pushing to the next level of gear. I suggest that the items be made as a costume that can be wearable like the green/blue armors that have been converted into [Honor] pieces. Dim Tree Spirit's Armor for example is a full body costume that a lot of veteran players have worn as a costume since the armor was released, and many people have been sad at the prospect of not being able to use such an iconic outfit anymore.
Having these armors fade away as people further upgrade their gear is a sad way for these costume pieces to not be usable anymore. To better build on this, the main quest line gives you "[Honor] Armor" of various pieces of sets throughout the story, this could also be applied to with [Honor] Dim Tree Armor, [Honor] Red Nose Armor, or [Honor] Blackstar Armor through the Odylita quest line, or a sub quest that you get from "Dorin Morgrim" where you show him your Fallen God Armor and in return you receive the armor you had converted as an [Honor] Dim Tree Armor, [Honor] Red Nose Armor, or [Honor] Blackstar Armor.
Example of said [Honor] Armors
I agree, there should be a way to obtain a skin of the dim armor or at least be able to pick the apperance of it and apply it to dead god.
There's a similar feature we have for our pets, where when you combine 2 of them you can pick between the apperance of one or the other. We need something like this for armors in this game.
How about a black spirit gift of sorts...
Once you extract an armor piece with more than c10 level of chaphras, the black spirit gives a gift of [honor] version of the piece.
This would circumvent the whole creation and location binding of new dailogue options with other NPC's.
