Dev Discussion #35 - Character Inspection

We have not received permission from Noaani to share the quoted post.

Class, yes, but weapon and armor? Not if they are wearing a cosmetic. BDO's weapons are separated by class so the main meaningful distinction have subtler key playstyle differences that usually hint heavily at their build if you somehow found out. Same with their armor.

This issue is resolved by Intrepid having sound cosmetic implementation relative to this issue (no bow skins on swords) and having the ability to inspect people's cosmetics and transmogs. You don't have to go deeper than that. Make cosmetic and 'what slots are transmog' inspectable without consent and the general details of your build optional by request. A pretty fair and simple balance between the two.
