Almost since Nagafen's launch I have used an illusion as my primay appearance. With GU52 illusions are now randomized with each cast. There is a current thread complaining about this on the official forums.

I am now stuck with original unwanted racial look or having a new appearance each time I log in.

Why would they do that? Seems like it would be something that would be an easy fix. Who would complain about something like that that has no effect on stats what so ever?

That's a weird change to the game, not really sure who would benefit from it, although it sort of makes it more hardcore since if you want that appearance you need to roll the exact race to get it. But since the game has some good racials already to encourage people to pick different classes it seems unnecessary, plus it means you need to log in multiple times to look the preferred way, and all the collections are worth the same then (if I understand where you get the illusion appearance from correctly).

Still, fortunately I rolled a Froglok anyway so have no need for the illusion forms ;)

An update I read here, it sounds like its getting fixed, although in a different way then just rolling back to the way it was before, it sounds like a good implementation now since people have opt for either the random illusion or to pick a particular one.

Quote:
Illusions Driving You Crazy? - A change was made in GU52 that racial illusions pick a random appearance each time they are displayed. This applies to guild hall NPCs as well. Even the devs are annoyed at this change, so are investigating a Magic Mirror house item to set your illusion appearances, and a similar mechanism for guild hall NPCs. Also, some folks make frequent use of different illusions. Look for an Illusion Manager window.
