[bluefish]

Sorry, I pass on SOGA .. I personally think those models look silly .. i will stick to the current models as long as SOE allows me to. <P></P>

[Demodicus]

<P>Hey when i go to the Options menu no SOGA stuff shows up.Is it on test servers only or something?</P>

[Raage]

y'know, I see peeps posting SOGA models on test that have gear...Is there a way to "buff" yer toon up to a certain lvl like on the EQ1 test server?

[shirka]

erhmm...n00b question...what's SOGA? <p></p>

[Prothos]

Its the asian look.  Some people prefer it some donot.  To be honest I am not sure I am digging it.  But hey we will see worth a try. <P></P>

[Nemi]

<FONT color=#ffff00>The wood elf models are way cooler, hope the dark elf ones are too. The current dark elf models suck.</FONT>

[Nemesis465]

This is how I intend me to look in the SOGA world. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <img src="http://img498.imageshack.us/img498/291/mewee7iy.jpg"><div></div>

[WanderingWo]

If nothing else it will be fun to have some variety to mix things up.

[yodamite]

This will be available in LU#16.

[Aduvar]

<DIV>What do the frogloks look like with this change?</DIV>

[x0rtrun]

Frogloks look the same. They did not change the monster/animal races. (except ogres) <div></div>

[Zilqamr]

<P>So they didnt change kerra???</P> <P>aww man</P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

[stgninja]

I remember reading about this stuff ages ago and I personally like the new look. 

[Reposa]

Here's my SOGA pics.. First, normal Led.. <img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b318/Reposado/Led.jpg"> Now... SOGA Led.. <img src="http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b318/Reposado/Led.jpg"> <3 SOGA <div></div>

[Gaige]

You are pretty much the ugliest Kerra I've ever seen.

[Reposa]

Ugly?  Maybe.  Emo? No. <div></div>

[henn]

Led u look like something form planet of the ape's

[geospa]

personally .. i think this is the best thing that's ever happened to EQ2 ... loved the way FFXI characters looked ... i might actually zoom in and look at what i'm fighting <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <div></div>

[Cusashorn]

<P>I gotta hand it to you Gaige. You actually managed to make yourself look good for once.</P> <P> </P> <P>Don't know why you posted the pic of that Maj'Dul female at the Qeynos docks though. They haven't been changed.</P>

[Harpax]

<DIV>Are you able to customize your toon once SOGA comes out, or are you basically just converted to what your choices would be sorta like what happens with racial illusions?</DIV>

[Gaige]

You'll be able to customize them.

[Xxooo-Coav]

and us Iksar are left out in the cold on this one..  = /

[fre'do]

dont forget the rats and the trolls too.

[Jezekie]

<span><blockquote><hr>Xxooo-Coav wrote:and us Iksar are left out in the cold on this one..  = / <div></div><hr></blockquote>And that's a good thing too, I dread to think about what iksars would look SOGA-fied, Godzillaish monster, naw. I like how they are looking now.</span><div></div>

[Gaige]

Run, its Godzilla!~

[Lunah]

<P>Xxooo,</P> <P>Iksar are finally getting their scale pattern variety, on test atm only new iksar can get it. But they posted existing characters will get to choose from the new patterns soon as well. At least it is something for the Iksar. :smileywink:</P>

[zabor]

[Gaige]

Ah, seems like a button will be on character select between LU16 and LU17 to change your appearance.

[fre'do]

<DIV>SOGA is mad emo, and emo is bad </DIV>

[x0rtrun]

Personally i think you shoulda kept your original soga-fied character. That dude looked EVIL. <div></div>

[Harpax]

<DIV>Looks like you can only convert your character once?</DIV>

[x0rtrun]

At this point yes. but i think in a hotfix they'll add an in-game option to customize as much as you want until lu17, but that's not for certain. <div></div>
