"potion now released, active "features" on live shard deemed not a bug, please enjoy the following:

1: special hue 1258 persisting on transmogged selected/highlighted quest items

2: blessed status retained on destination object as well as source so can bless Prized items that were originally not intended to be able to be blessed (previousely could not use an item or clothing bless deed on them), also can bless hats for free where previously either a clothing bless deed or item bless deed would be required by transmogging onto free blessed nictitating lenses that you can claim every 30 days from Trinsic docks.

3: can alter transmogged nictitating lenses from human to gargoyle allowing gargish captain john's hat and any other human hat that was previously not able to be altered to gargoyle.
(attempting a direct human to gargoyle transmog you receive the following message:
"you may not set source and destination objects of different race requirements.")



(unable to tranmog some veil-like items including 'mask of khal ankhur' not specified in store description)




#5
So the mask can not turn into a wizard hat? Is that so there would be no way a gargoyle can wear two of them? 

So there is a way for gargs to get more things now.

I need to hurry home to make me some cool headgear!

This allows you to dye items you could not dye before.

@Yoshi can you repair the pumpkin hat and stuff like that?
#6
if you want to mog mace and shield glasses to plate helm.  you need non magical plate helm, take it npc mage guildmaster and pay to get make it mage armor.  i fortified it to 255 just to be safe.
#7
Ah so it doesn't use the base material property it also would use the mage property.

Then take off the mage property but the helm is still medable right?
#8
"ofcourse not"
#9
#10
all is well 

#12
Want to transmog my Norse Helm Mace & Shield variant onto a Bone Helm. That possible?
#13
That should work if the mace and shield is not medable...  But I think the glasses version are medable.

I'm looking to get rid of a bone helm and make it something that lets the hair show.

The lens and circlets are medable tho...
#14

If it does not work.  You could try the trick above.  Get a plain bone helm and go turn it medable. Then convert.

The potions are on TC.
#15
It's funny. All these new tools come out at a point when I've finally become pretty comfortable with how my characters look. Oh well.
#16
Ya I was fine but I like the pumpkin Helmet and got to get rid of the Hunters headdress that made me look like a bug with antennae.
#17

Ya you cant remove mage armor from something you turned into Lens.  Darn.  Nothing for Non med that lets you show your hair.

I am having some issue with a Head Slot Trans Mog.  Perhaps someone could help? 

I have a Captain John's Hat.  I would like to Transmog to a Plate Helm (or Norse Helm). 

I got a plain Plate Helm with only resists and 5 Stam.  Wouldn't work.  Converted it to Mage Armor.  Wouldn't work.   Tried magical objects even though it states it wouldn't work in the description.  Tried crafted piece off VS with nothing by resists on it (no mage armor).  Still didn't work.

I keep getting one of the two issues:
"The destination item must be free of any magical properties."
OR
"Both source and destination objects must allow the use of the meditation skill (medable) or both block the meditation skill (non-medable)." 

Is this there any work around to make this particular Transmog possible? 

This seems far more restrictive and difficult than necessary.

   buy the type of  helmet you want to transmog into from an npc, then add mage-armor to the helmet.  it'll work.



#20
Yup. Or craft one from iron and add mage The 5 stamina is a magical property. 
#21

Shouldn't this read differently?  
Mystic Kasa?
#22
Thanks for the advice - it worked using a crafted helm with no mods and adding Mage Armor after.

No, The name stays the same.  The purple words tells you what type armor it was.

That is in case you want to use a special named item.  You do not want to lose the name.
#24
“Pawain is incorrect, I’ll assume David did not transmog a coif onto a coif, it should indeed read Mystic Kasa, try logging out and in and check what it reads”

Show some of yours.

It keeps the name of the item and the purple is what type of armor was used (for head gear).  It does not change the name of the item.

My Parrot is called a Hawkwinds Robe. The Blackthorn Robe items are bugged but the rest keep the original items name.

All my items kept the original name and show the original item type (for Hats)




#26
As you can see, I’m wearing a kasa but both lines of text say chainmail coif, which was the origin item was. Logging out / closing everything and reopening did not change the names for me. Still double coif. 
#27
“If the source object has a unique name then it will be transferred, but it’s not supposed to transfer the “coif” part, only the description is supposed to be transferred, but it seems this is not working as intended”
#28
I just looked at my original items I made on TC.  They all kept the name of the item. An arcane deermask on a chefs hat says arcane deermask.  The transmog tag wasn't there yet.

So the Devs saw this from the first day. So it must have been intended.


It also transfers the maker of the items name to the target, if there was one.
#29
I strongly feel what I’m experiencing is not intended. Basically, I bought a kasa from an npc then transferred my coif’s properties to it. “Kasa” should be mentioned in the description since that is what it is. Right?

Or at least it should just say “Transmogrified” and that’s it. 
#30

"This example shows that correctly only the descriptive element of the name (Spined) has been transferred, it seems this description is correct when there is no magical name present, the system seems unable to distinguish between loot/reforge generated named magic items and true named artifacts, looking back on images posted during test phase, this issue was present on TC however not specifically brought to the devs attention, (however there are many issues that went unresolved through the test process)"
#31
I hate the look of the helmet in CC for the Darden's Armor so I transmog'd that to a Tricorn hat for my Pirate Lord necro-archer. The 4pc Dardens set has great mods and can be complemented by gloves and gorget and jewels to make a specialized suit.

#32
When it is named like that it will confuse someone. They see the glasses and wonder how you were able to make them from leather or at all.

That is why I have thought the naming was correct. Only headwear has the more descriptive purple words. The name should stay and the purple words say transmogrified on to Kasa for the original example.

Or the intended function should have been to keep the original name such as Allen's Parrot. And make the purple words behave like they do now.

But only the devs know what they intended. 

Also they should have modified all existing headwear to have resist stats so we could use the store items for transmogrification.  We can use the store robes.
#33
I opine the item name should reflect what it currently is, if it's a helmet or glasses.

The original name is already mentioned in the purple words below.

Why is there a need to have same name repeated twice, e.g. coif, when the item is actually a kasa.

Somehow I feel bitter taste for this transmog function, it's like "half working".
