Thanks for posting the pics and sticking with your promise to do so this week! Great job!Though, how will a skullcap bandana fit on my spikey-headed Iksar bruiser?Thoral, 54 Bruiser, Mistmoore

vinterskugge · 09-01-2006, 11:38 PM

The bard-only Nightchord Cap currently uses the Swashbuckler graphic. Will it now take either the troubador or dirge graphic, or are we stuck looking like rogues?

*tries to stifles the giggles*

We're men, we're men in tights. We roam around the forest looking for fights. We're men, we're men in tights. We rob from the rich and give to the poor, that's right! We may look like sissies, but watch what you say or else we'll put out your lights! We're men, we're men in tights, Always on guard defending the people's rights. [Dance number, chorus line style] We're men, MANLY men, we're men in tights. Yeah! We roam around the forest looking for fights. We're men, we're men in tights. We rob from the rich and give to the poor, that's right! We may look like pansies, but don't get us wrong or else we'll put out your lights. We're men, we're men in tights (TIGHT tights), Always on guard defending the people's rights. When you're in a fix just call for the men in tights! We're butch.

[Removed for Content] so true... can this hat get reskinned and given to Rangers? I think that would be more appropriateI just dont see this being a troub hat.....

I'm still trying to figure out what the dirge hat is all about...

Pucswift · 09-02-2006, 12:36 AM

Anyone else think the Troub looks like George W?

Exactly. The developer's and art team just dont know how to make bards a unique class.

Pins · 09-02-2006, 01:08 AM

So, from what it looks like.Bruiser = TMNT, Assassin = Shredder.

Azarphan · 09-02-2006, 01:15 AM

Dare I say it. Two things come to mind.

"You walka right side SAFE! you walka Leff Side Safe you walka center, Pretty soon Squish just like grape!"

"Wax ONNN! Wax OFFF!!"

Message Edited by Bobbiac on 09-01-200604:24 PM

Well ... confirmation would be nice ... but most of them can easily be figured out ...

Assassins = "Ninja"
Bruiser = "Bruce Lee"
Dirge = Fergie! ...

I've always wondered if the creator of that hat had a crush on Fergie of Black Eyed Peas; she wears alot of Berets / She even has a Hairstyle that looks like she is wearing one. And, her voice has been known to break glass .. so viola! Dirge! (banshee)

Troubador = Singing Rangers .. lol .. It's funny! I can't stop the song from playing in my head!!
Defiler = Animal Trophy *shrug*

.. Though, I think they should have added some particle effects to the eyes .. would have made it more "possessed".

Ranger = Hood.

Oh! come on .. how many Ranger-wanna-be's (myself inc) have watched LoTR over and over again and wanted that cool cloak of Aragon? From the 1st Movie. Where he is hidden in the shadows and looks so sexy .. err .. mysterious and rough and .. *pants* .. uh .. yeah ..

Inquisitor = Roman Catholic, anyone?
Templar = It's the Clerical / Scribe hat from way back when .. It really was a holy hat .. really ..
Beserker = Viking Warriors ..duh !
Brigand = lol .. this one is a stretch but the Hamburgler does steal hamburgers ...
Swashbuckler = Flashy Pirate Hat; which can easily be mistaken for a "[Removed for Content]" hat but with more class ..
Pointy Hat = Wizard!

Larcain · 09-02-2006, 01:18 AM

Not only can a defiler SUMMON a dog, they can wear it as a hat.

That's one way to make sure your pet is always with you.

Azarphan · 09-02-2006, 01:20 AM

Yeah no kidding If I was that dog when I heard the summon call I would be like Heck no I don't want to end up like the last one he summoned. A hat!

The summoned wolf *is* the one on the head. The summoned wolf is DEAD!

That's what the wolf gets for trying to bite the hand that feed it ...

chopped up and made into a helm and bound for all eternity to obey his master/mistress.

Larcain · 09-02-2006, 01:29 AM

LOL!! "Now, where did I put that dog....?"

AGG!!! I'm stuck in this joke mode!!!

For some reason, I get this idea of a "far side" caption:

"Bill, the defiler had the odd feeling he was being watched"

jadkins555 · 09-02-2006, 01:54 AM

I *really* like the Assassin hat.

Azarphan · 09-02-2006, 02:09 AM

I agree, it is very cool looking.

Bahann · 09-02-2006, 02:23 AM

Problem I have with hats that shows hair... most of the time that peice of hair that is attached to the new hat... it's not the same color as my own char.It would be nice if hats that reveal hair were maid to let the hair show (at least partially) and for those who have spiked mohak hair... well i'm sorry if you put a hat on your hair it'll get flat SMILEY

Cow Slayer · 09-02-2006, 03:09 AM

y no change to the sk helm i like the way it looks like but i dont like having it between necro and sks think they could change either sks or necros to makes us look diff.

Patience!

Classes still in the "shared" category:

Coercer (I think they are going to be rolling dice to see who gets the "quilted helm" )
Conjuror
Fury
Illusionist (I think they are going to be rolling dice to see who gets the "quilted helm" )
Mystic (though, "I" think they will get the bear helm)
Necromancer
Shadowknight (though, "I" think they should get the Skull Helm)
Warden
Warlock
Wizard (though, "I" HOPE they get the pointy hat)

10 out of 24 .. not bad. *shrug*

Recla2 · 09-02-2006, 03:47 AM

Ah the Defiler Dog.I'm not sure if it's better or worse than the Warden/Furywearing a Teddy Bear Hat. My daughter has pajamas with a teddy bear that look just like it.ReclaLevel 70 Warden UNREST

Yep, and really, they only have six more hats to do. So they only have to put out one, maybe two, more batches of class hats to finish the whole thing

What does the Fury hat look like?

Fury hat isn't out yet. The placeholder ( the "dead bear" ) helm is being shared by Furies, Mystics & Warden
