I dont know if I missed this question or response somewhere, but will we be able to skin say an ES robe to look like plate? Or an EV/AR helm to look like EV helm etc? Or must they be an exact match both hybrid and pure?
Do I need to buy more of these to use more skinned items at the same time?
Can I use and one handed skin on a one handed weapon?
Like use a wand skin for a sword?
... We have listened to the feedback from the community members who felt that they don't fit into our world. The footprints are not the first step in a slippery slope - they're as far as we're willing to go. I'm sorry to everyone who was upset by them, that wasn't the intention.
We're very aware that many company logos wouldn't fit in the PoE game world. We've turned down offers from a lot of companies because what they asked for would upset us as gamers. Razer is different for a few reasons. Their logo fits well with the game world and their company culture is very similar to ours. I spent some time with their CEO earlier this year - he is a true gamer and an awesome guy. The software that is being promoted is actually useful for playing PoE, because we don't have voice chat built into the client at this stage.
Partnerships like this (where we can find ones that don't hurt the game) are really important for the future of PoE. I share just as much concern as you do about bad partnerships hurting the game, and will make sure that doesn't happen.

We've officially started the spiral down into the toilet.
And no I'm not talking about the Razer sponsorship, I'm talking about how you continue to let the game be in the state that it is in. Essentially, not a fun game you can just hop into. It's a game where you have to learn every single in-and-out and then try your best every second you're playing to avoid bug after bug after desync after bug after desync after shitty skill.
Unless some drastic changes happen, this game isn't going to last you the 5+ acts you want it to.
I would rather pay more for a skin transfer that is reusable than a bunch of cheap one time only mtx. Just thinking about for leveling purposes you will need to change gear all the time and it wouldn't be worth using one every time you found an upgrade.
Right now if you want to try wings or serated mowhawk on a helm and don't like the look, when you reclaim it would you just lose another skin transfer as well?
It would be better if each skin transfer just kept the same skin but that skin could be reusable.
Edit: The fact that I have to decide whether I should shell out real money every time I get an upgrade leaves a bad taste, similar to D3 RMAH.
I'll have to purchase the skin transfers sparingly instead of getting as many as I actually wanted (1 for every awesome looking unique)

I'd suggest not purchasing this MTX until you reach a point where you'll be wearing the armor you're in for a bit of time.
