Should outfitters break in battle?
I wish outfitter items broke in battle like regular clothing does...you can't see if your armor is broken unless you press alt and look at your avatar icon. Would be much nicer if you just saw broken armor so you would know you have to repair. Also, it's very romantic to see your character all beaten up while she's kicking butt on a giant, scary monster.

But that would require a ton of work probably, because they would have to make a broken version of the outfit too.
Now, a more interesting option would be if you could set normal armor to appear broken even if it is fully repaired....would be really nice with the succubus armor set for starters. Sometimes when the host DCs, you re-enter the dungeon with your armor visually broken, but stat wise is still fully repaired, so tis definately possible to have some kind of toggle.
But that would depend on derpcat making the effort to do it, so...
at least have an option for it
but updating avatars would seems low on the priority list for devcat
Its not like anyone bothers repairing armor outside of long dungeons anyway. Holding the environment key does bring up the paper doll so you can use it ot quickly check armor dura if necessary.
Updating avatars to have a broken version is probably not even on their priority list, as they would have to code the outfits to check for armor dura and break accordingly. The current system where the outfits just override everything is easy and generates massive profits for minimal work.
