Please make old unlocks (suchs as previous variants of reaper bones cannons) selectable in ships customization. I still have Renowned Reaper Cannons equiped, however after I select the new variant Notorious Reaper Cannnons, it vanishes (the renowned ones) from the list making them unselectable. As matter of fact I can't select any other of the previous unlocks as they got replaced with the latest one. Please do consider making this an option.
Accessible old unlocks from emissary
I too would like to see something like this implemented, understanding some limitations.
Currently, promotion title-based unlocks with multiple cosmetic levels (another example being the Order of Souls lantern) can't be rolled back, and this can enable players to 'prove' that they have only unlocked e.g. level 35 in a particular faction. I don't really see socially what benefit this could have, and seeing as these textures are always downloaded for everyone anyway, I too think it would be nice to roll back to a cleaner look for some promotion-based cosmetics.
I don't mean to disparage design decisions by the way, I just personally prefer the cleaner look of the reaper cannons (using the same example as Tomik provided) - I find the red glowing script is maybe a bit messy visually (could just be the particular way I'm wired though)! ;)

example is the title unlocks from emissary where you can use previously earned ones (instead of having only the latest unlock avaiable) - so the point of this is to make cosmetics you also gain via ranking to be able select previously earned rewards rather than latest variant you get
Ironically if you equip the top end emissary cosmetics your ship becomes increasingly useless, especially the cannons.
The top end Reapers emissary items are useless, the cannons don't aim well and the bright glowing wheel makes it hard to see.
Best cannons for aiming are the cheapest, plainest cannons IMHO.
@tomik-007
Yeah, as you say, the title selection menu will show all ranks of progression paths, so in a sense, it is possible...
Whilst I think it would be cluttered to include lines of cosmetic variants under their own tile in the selection menu (e.g. 5 different OoS lanterns in equipment chest), I do think that this is a possible UI improvement to be looked at in future, maybe adding a dropdown style selector on that item's tile, similar to an implementation that already exists for cosmetics in another wildly popular multiplayer game... ;)The whole inventory system needs an overhaul eventually, because its extremely dated, and having dozens of tabs with little order makes little sense. A new system could also make it so if you choose an item with a variant, it opens up a sub page right under it to choose which variant you want to make this possible.
@goldsmen My personal fav to hate is the trinkets vendor, really, 30 plus pages of things I can't buy?
@goldsmen to be honest, even emporium could use search function at least or filters to search for specific names/items

On my ship I just change the hull, figurehead and those the different coloured plain sails lol, always looks better than the over the top cosmetics that end up hindering the player lol
@foambreaker Yep, 100% - a 'show available for purchase' filter might be handy there (specifically with trinkets), if not already existent in this view.
