Nope, outside of the pre-order helmets and CoV Collector's Edition Arachnos cape, those pieces are limited to the first slot only.

Looks like those helmets are pretty cheap once i21 is out. If I recall they're 600 or 800 whatevers.
Since I want that helm in other costumes, they got my money/tokens/whatever.
I believe the helmets were being sold separately, not all for one. Just like the other costume sets seem to be chopped up.

Maybe we'll get all our costume parts across all slots at some point. My gal is not herself without that helmet.
What with there now being 10 possible costume slots, does this mean that VEATs can unlock the 4 normal ones for levelling and now edit the extra one for turning in Halloween salvage? And what happens if you then unlock the 5 buyable slots?
@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.
You get 10 slots.

10, you say? Thanks.

So, if you buy 5 costume slots, create a VEAT, do the L10, L20, and L30 costume slot missions, and turn in Halloween salvage for a 10th costume, then there is no benefit to doing the L40 costume slot mission?

Why would you need to get it back, since you never lose it? You can switch back to it at any time (outside of the costume change cooldown, which is 30 seconds IIRC) either using the menu option or the costume change chat command.

You can't for example get to make another VEAT costume after the first one. Example you wanted one without the cape and another with the the cape.

Indeed, but that is a different issue from having your original VEAT costume returned/getting it back. It would be nice to have the pieces available, though. Heck, I'd be happy to be able to colour more than just the lights on the Special Helmets version of the Arachnos helmets.

It's possible. If so, the original post is poorly worded. I find it equally likely that everyone else overlooked a simpler issue - that the OP was unaware of being able to change costumes anywhere other than a tailor interface. The initial post makes more sense if that is the issue.

No no .. look Do the mission at level 10 and get costume #2, then do the costume missions at 20, 30 and 40..and turn in your Halloween salvage. you now have 6 slots open for free.. Now go buy 4 (not five) slots .. why waste the points!

It's a pretty common question: why can't I still use my crab gloves in my 2nd costume slot? (for instance) The fact that there isn't an answer beyond "just because" means people rarely figure out the reasoning on their own.

Yes, that's a common question. Which is why I'm not surprised that people would latch onto it despite the fact that it's only a minor statement in the original post, probably arrived at while dealing with the main issue stated in the thread title and first sentence which everyone else apparently overlooked. I'm not blaming them for overlooking the main issue, as that commonly happens when a common problem is brought up alongside another issue or issues.

The OP seems to have had their question answered though. What do you think they are asking that isn't addressed? Is it more likely that everyone else is confused and you are the only sane person or the other way round?

Yes, 6 slots open for free... but that simply means that of the 5 slots I paid for (I do have other toons besides VEATS), one of them is inaccessible on my VEAT.|

So, since I HAVE already purchased 5 slots, and my VEAT has already turned in Halloween Salvage and unlocked the L10, L20, and L30 costume slots (making 10 the total number of slots I currently have), is there any benefit for that toon to doing the L40 costume slot mission?
In theory, if it works like it used to, you'd get an invisible costume slot #11 that copies whatever is in slot 2 when you get it that can't be edited because it doesn't shop up on the iinterfaces, but you can get to with the /cc command.
Is there anyway to get the original VEAT costume back outside of wearing it when you create a new costume slot. Can't find any of the pieces in the menus.
