A cosmetic item refers to items, usually associated with armor, in which can either be worn in the appropriate equipment slot or used to transmogrify other items of the same type. Cosmetic items ignore the armor types such as cloth, leather, mail and plate.
Prior to the creation of the cosmetic armor type, many items were used for cosmetic appearances and often used for roleplay. These items are known as vanity items, many of which have been turned into "cosmetic items" since Legion.
Notes
- Creating this type streamlined the addition of cosmetic items, rather than creating four items for each armor type to serve the same purpose.
- This occurred frequently in Mists of Pandaria with items such as: [Straw Hat], [Straw Hat], [Straw Hat], [Straw Hat].
- [Griftah's Authentic Troll Shoes] was the first cosmetic type of item to be added into World of Warcraft.
Patch changes
- Patch 9.1.5 (2021-11-02): Many cosmetic items are now consumable, teaching the relevant appearances immediately.
- Patch 9.0.2 (2020-11-17): Cosmetic tag color changed from white to pink and now displays a pink border on the item in the inventory. No longer considered an armor type.
- Patch 5.3.0 (2013-05-21): Cosmetic-type added.
