I'm not against the idea. I know we have our own "taste". It's just that it diminishes the concept of the "costume" that in order to gain the bonuses stats, this wardrobe should be worn. What do you think?
I understand your idea completely. In the first place however, "costumes" should only purely be for aesthetics/visual purposes, not for stat wars. Sure, if the devs want to add stats to costumes to justify the premium price, I don't really mind. The fine line on costumes and equipment should be drawn nonetheless. In the current case, costumes are already being treated as an equipment and not as something for aesthetics.
