Overview[edit]

The term "cosmetic" refers to only the appearance, not the function, of any item.

A character can show or hide the appearance of their armor, headware, goggles and cloak they are wearing. Named items have a fixed appearance, while randomly generated items will have an appearance assigned from a fixed pool of appearances (with some limitations).

Cosmetic Items allow one to customize the look of your characters armor, weapons, shields, cloak / back, hair, eyes.

These may be obtained from many sources: Mirror of Glamering, Quest rewards, Event rewards, Gold Daily Dice, purchase from the DDO Store, Ultimate and Collector's editions of expansion packs. or from certain NPCs.

Their are a few cosmetic items which have clicky type enchantments, otherwise all cosmetic items can not have any enchantments added to them. Any enchantments that were added by player or developer should be considered a bug and can be removed at any time with or without notice.

There are also various Mounts and Creature companions that have no effect on game play (except Mounts and there speed bonus) that can accompany your character.

UI[edit]

(mouse-hover for pop-up)

To turn visibility on/off, open the Inventory screen, and click in the appropriate area - the head to cycle through helmet, goggles, both, or none, the body for armor/robe, and the knees for cloaks.

(Note that randomly generated cloaks that were looted previous to Update 40 (Oct 3, '18) will not have any cosmetic appearance attached to them, so will not be visible.)

There are also many items that are purely cosmetic, that can be placed in a "cosmetic slot" found in Inventory, below the above image, whose appearance will show regardless of what gear you are wearing. The appearance of these items can be turned on/off similarly to the above. These purely cosmetic items are expanded to include weapons.

Cosmetic slots[edit]

Cosmetic inventory slot Equips to: (from cosmetic description) Item type allowed
Cosmetic Headwear Cosmetic Headwear Helmets, Goggles (One or the other but not both at the same time)

Cosmetic feats[edit]

Cosmetic Eyes, Footprints and Wings, such as Eyes of the Reaper and some special event rewards, are coded in game as Feats and accessed via the Feat UI and hotbar activation. These do not use slots on the inventory, but you are only allowed to have one feat of each type active at once.

You can use the chat window to type in commands that can effect your cosmetics without using the inventory screen or are exclusive to the chat window.
