Anyone heard anything about our class hat? Not saying I don't like the skellie helm, but still its not uniwue and I want to give the graphic back to the SKs it belongs to...

Speak for yourself. I like the helm and really don't want to give SOE the chance to give us something stupid I'd have to hide.

I agree Evhallion, although you don't have to change the look of your class hat if you don't want to (it's a turn in if i remember correctly). Having said that, does anyone know if the fabled class hat from Slavering Alzid can be turned in or will it be changed automatically?Zald, I'm sure one will be incoming soon, they seem to be changing 4 at a time and I guess because no one has been complaining about the look of our class hat we have been put to the back of the queue <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

Personally, I feel like robe wearers shouldnt be seen in something as big and metallic looking as the one we have. It looks like something that a plate class tank would wear (ie looks far too heavy). Personally I put my cloak hood up - far more in keeping with the class.

Well if they follow the system they did with dirges and templars then you can keep the old design OR trade in for the new.I haveHoolohPlague bearerDiabolisque skull masqueSo im happy to see a new style, ill just turn in my little used Hooloh hat. The Necro helm isnt identical to the SK helm, only a subtle difference but the horns are shaped differently. I like the current helm anyway so not too fussed, but would be interesting to see what they would pick instead.

We're not the last class. I can't remember who else doesn't have a unique one (I've never claimed an infallible memory), but it's not just us.

<P>I like this one just the way it is.</P> <P>Hopefully if they ever do choose to put one in, they will give us the option to keep the one we presently have, or switch to the new one for those that choose to do so.</P>

Ok.... you all are missing my point...I don't dislike the helm. I have 3 different class helms, its all good. My point is that this is the SK helm... and looks most appropriate for them. I don't want to be left with the "its good enough" helm thats obviously not unique and obviously not as well suited for a clothe wearing class.Yes, in all cases thus far, the classes that have gotten their unique hats late have been allowed to go back and switch to the new hat or stay with the original and I'd want it no other way for us.I just want a truely unique model for the class. Thats all. I at least want that option. If it sucked I wouldn't at all have a problem wearing the current helm and calling it a day.

i think it would be seriously awsome if we got a class hat that matched our necro avatars here on the forums. that would freakin rock.<div></div>

<DIV>I'm also of the opinion that it looks like a tank helmet rather than caster wear.  It's a matter of aestetic opinion, certainly.  I know if I ever get one I have no intention of letting it show if it stays like it does now.  The current one does look appropriately SK though.  Just waiting to see what the next one looks like here.</DIV>

<DIV>oo noes tinkering gnomes or some variant of curious lesser spotted pixie have had their way with our cloth! </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>... err!

i'll admit to us needing a new Hat. The hat we got now IS cool, but i don't wan to share it with a shadow knight. it kinda takes the uniqeness out of it. but i'm trying to figure out, what would be necro-ish and still cloth?<div></div>

Death's hood?  similar to the Grim Heretics.Or possibly a black hood with a white skull inside the hood ... where the shadow is.  that would look pretty [Removed for Content].   <div></div>

maybe a ghost helm? have the spectre hood, but make it ghost like. (not sure i'd like it for very long, but would be interesting. would suck for pvp though...but i really don't have to worry about that.)<div></div>

A crown with the same skeletal face attached to the front, but lose the full helm appearance. Maybe that isn't cloth either? But it sure sounds cool.I think necros must have a sort of god complex because they defy death, control undeath, and can become Lichs. Talk about power trippy. They seem like the kind of people who would wear crowns to the market while riding their Nightmare and looking down their nose at lesser classes. I am trying to think of what seems necromancery but is still cloth.<div></div>
