🧙 Transmogrification

Change the look of your gear without losing its stats. 🗡🗡️

1. Craft a rune. Surround a tool, weapon, or armor piece with an Echo Shard to craft a Transmogrification Rune of the item.
2. Apply it. Put the rune in the smithing table's left slot and the item you want to reskin in the middle slot. The result keeps all of its original stats, durability, enchantments, and name.

• Undoing a Transmog: Apply an item's own appearance rune to itself to revert it to its regular appearance.

• A rune only works on gear of the same kind: pickaxe runes on pickaxes, sword runes on swords, helmet runes on helmets, and so on. Spears and armor work the same way. A rune made from a plain Stick can only be applied to swords.

• Transmogrified gear show (Transmogrified to X) in their tooltips.

• Set enableTransmogrification to false in simpleqol_config.json to turn the feature off. Existing runes and already-transmogrified gear are unaffected, this only prevents new ones from being made.
