Swap base suit of loadout without resetting cosmetics

Raxxla also plays a role in several conspiracy theories, most of which attest that it has already been discovered by some kind of sinister cabal (or sole tyrant), which has leveraged its power to establish covert dominance over humanity.

I don't recall a way to do that, I just created a new loadout with the better suit and the weapons and cosmetics from the old one as onfoot gear can be in multiple loadouts at the same time.

I started deleting old loadouts after I got to a full screen of them, then I started naming them after what was in them rather than something 'cute'.

Whatever the truth of the matter, one thing remains irrefutable: the legend of Raxxla continues to inspire explorers and conspiracy theorists to this day.

That only really works though once you have all the Grades you want; for example, if I only have G1 and buy a G2, I have to re-apply all cosmetics. Same for G3.

It works just fine while you are upgrading it just isn’t final.
However as I change cosmetics from time to time because I feel like it I don’t see having to re-apply them as an issue more of an opportunity.

"Oh, they're out there alright. I've never met them, but I know they're out there. Think about how well known the stories are. Now think about how easy it would be for some two-bit band of hucksters to pass themselves off as the Dark Wheel and start trading on their reputation. Doesn't happen, does it? Not for long, anyway. Whenever someone tries to usurp the Dark Wheel name, sooner or later they get quietly shut down. And that's how I know."

Indeed, perhaps it is fair to say only a fraction of players would find such an option useful, however I haven't used materials to upgrade anything from G1 to G3, I merely purchased them.

Likewise, my on foot activities don’t require anything more than shop bought which saves me from a whole load of material chasing and engineering unlocks.
