I used to be fine with one outfit per character. If they needed to wear something different, I could just write it into a post. At some not-too-long-ago point, that changed. Now I'm all MUST HAVE MORE OUTFITS.
The AH has been kind of dry lately, so I downloaded the WoW model viewer and poked through things. Before too long, I had 20 or so "shirts" that I was interested in. Pants, boots, and belts could be done on some later date.
It's really a pain that you can't tell what quests you have or haven't yet done, but in this case, my 'questing as little as possible' really worked out -- every quest I wanted stuff from I hadn't done yet! I did a couple of seriously long quest chains in Outlands (including one I needed to solo a dungeon! I know, Outlands, but it wasn't something non-PvE me had done before).
Unfortunately I had to learn a hard truth: Even with all of WoW's graphics set to the highest settings, the in-game models in no way match the model viewer. Sharp colors, wonderful details, brightness, so much was lost in-game. Not to mention how area lighting effects things!
I have one more shirt I can go after tomorrow, and two I want crafted, assuming I can round up the expensive mats and can find some LW who knows the (rare? comes from odd rep) pattern.
Then, with the half-dozen new shirts in hand, I combed the AH for pants and shoes... and came up with nothing. Ugh.
And after all this running around? I decided that it makes sense for Keen to not have beautiful, perfectly matching things -- he comes from the street, he's pretty darned poor, a nice shirt and whatever pants/shoes he usually wears makes more sense!
Related to all this, his date with Grr was very sweet. Grr picked the spot this time, that mushroom circle where the animals come to watch the little dragons. Unfortunately the event didn't happen while we were there, but it was still a nice spot. Keen picks the next spot, and I already know where it will be. Heeheehee.
