Too bad for them, they're stuck with an ugly set, or even uglier shite that never matches.
A tier set isn't appealing to everyone look-wise, and it's impossible to make it so. Transmog is a godsent, so people can wear the gear they need to wear to be better, and not look godawful by force. Fashion is an extremely high selling point for games. Ask Warframe and League.
