FASHION AND OUTFITS
FASHION AND OUTFITS
ESO Fashion and Outfits are a very important part of most ESO players. Not for nothing does ESO have hundreds of Motif Styles and Costumes, which players can acquire through various methods. For this, the choice of mount and non-combat pets is also very important and may decide on a character's RP background or the story in your head, connecting to them on a personal level.
It's the variety which makes players want to accumulate as many different pets, costumes or motifs as possible, and even if anyone can purchase or find them, the dyes give it an entirely different appearance all-together again, for the true ESO fashion endgame.
