Video guide: Working with wardrobe

Rate:

{[["☆","★"]]}

This is the third part of the very beginner's tutorial to LoTRO cosmetic system.

Working with wardrobe

This guide covers:

• How to access the wardrobe
• Storing item's appearance in the wardrobe
• Using items stored in wardrobe for creating an outfit
• Filtering items in wardrobe, searching for items
• How to cosmetically equip armour you cannot wear (heavy armour for light classes)

Important note: In 2:00 of this video, I mention equipping Ettenmoors armour you don't have rank for via wardrobe. This is still possible if you already have the PvMP armour in your inventory (nothing changed in wardrobe restrictions). However. since Update 5, you won't be able to barter for these items (without proper class or rank) - refer to this article for more information.

Please, let me know what do you think of this video, any feedback (negative or positive) is very appreciated!

Video guide: Previewing armour's appearance

{[["☆","★"]]}

For a long time I've been worried that I don't have any good "hands on" guides for LoTRO cosmetic system on my blog. I was thinking how to fix this, but I was too lazy to make a detailed written guides for all the aspects of cosmetics. I also knew it would be difficult to explain some very basic stuff without showing the "clicking" to outfitting beginners. 

And then I got an idea - let's make video guides! This is the first and the very basic of them, focused on previewing armour pieces in the dressing room.

Previewing armour's appearance

This short guide covers:

• Previewing items from quest window or inventory
• Working with dressing room
• Linking items to chat

And now, I really need your feedback! Do you like the form of the video? The background music? Could I do anything to make it easier to understand? And furthermore, what questions would you like to have covered in upcoming video guides? So far, I was thinking about following topics:

• Using cosmetic slots
• Working with wardrobe
• Using dyes
• Installing B.D.R.X. skin ("big dressing room")
• Outfitting tips for all races
• Outfitting tips for different occasions

Most of these topics will probably be split into several videos, as I would like to keep those 2-3 minutes short.
