Gearing up

Does anyone else have a minor case of OCD when it comes to gearing up their army? I refuse to upgrade one of my toons gear unless I have enough for everyone so as to ensure the 'uniform' look of all my toons. Any suggestions, anecdotes, etc?

That's why I like quest, crafted, and instance boss drops. Repeatable loot. :)

*nod* Makes sense. I can't wait to get to level 10 so I can boost my toons through VC and start getting boss drops. Although I probably won't be equipping the gear until the last of the toons gets the drop :P

OCD is nice, but at some point you're going to want to take whatever will benefit the TEAM more, not just the eye-candy. :)

I wish I could but I'd sooner delete the toons than let them come to that point. I guess I should have mentioned; I do have a severe case of OCD so I can't quite help it. I've deleted toons on my account because the slots didn't line up(ie., bank alt on 1 account so that toon was a spot further down than the other accounts...)

I don't mind in gearing up my main first. He is their leader so its cool if he looks different then the other 3. But I will not put the gear on the other 3 without them all having it.

Ya, gearing up the main of the group doesn't bother me TOO much...I like to sometimes make their skin colour a little different also but generally having the /follow'ers look different drives me nuts.

Is this a pure "similar attire" thing, or are you trying to balance the group, stat wise? I bring it up because if its the later, rarely will a "normal" group have identical toons (even if they have the same classes), and they can perform exceptionally well.

Purely for similar attire...my OCD makes gearing up 4 toons at once rather challenging...

For my 3 mages, they don't have to wear the same attire.

Anytime there's new gear, I see who can benefit. Then I see who can benefit the most while trying to keep the general important stats within each other.

My girls are a bunch of lootwhores. Aebra doesn't use KTM and only cares about +dmg gear. Aedra wants to hit 375 enchanting, so she DEs anything that's left on the boss for more than about 5 seconds. Aeera is emo and will take stuff that she doesn't really need and then vendor it, and Aecra just ninjas things to piss the others off. Aeara has a major case of main-tank-entitlement-syndrome and takes pretty much anything she can equip.

So I try to keep them uniform, but it's tough with the clashing personalities.

Item Rack (addon) + Tuxedo suit (tailoring) : Activate Event (About Town) = Uniform Dress Code! :D
