    I almost bought this one today because I thought it looked pretty good. I am not a big fan of skull helmets which is why I ultimately didn't buy it, but I think it is one of the better designs for costumes so far.

    If they release a remix of it where the feathers are more of a hairpiece without the mask I will probably buy that version.

    I think ZOS must be working with some 50+ year old designers who need the boot.

    Helm looks like feathers to me and very cool exept covering the face. Have not bought the costume, but I might have caved in if the helmet was open or the outfit came with options for both open and closed ones... Now that hats are possible, why not do such costumes= costume plus 2 hats pack in future, hint ;)?
    Now the price feels quite steep for 1 outfit where I would never wear the helm .
    Helmet reminds me of a seasonal reward in Diablo 3, sigh, loved that feathered helm there too exept that it covered face with an ugly sceletal thingy :)

    Yes, available for FOUR DAYS only.

    Think I will wait until crown boxes as they mentioned limited time stuff will be in them and at a cheaper rate.

    I think they just put out the breton costume just so people could say:

    "I mean, compared to the breton costume it's not even that bad."

    Yeah, I'm not a fan of the feathered helmet on this, but without it I think the costume looks great -- I tried it on the PTS, so I already know what it looks like on my characters. Picking this up as soon as I get home.

    Looks much better without it. But I think the helmet is the point of the costume. Wish it was designed better or just replaced with a design that works :)

    Besides that, they've already said they cannot create 'moving' animations because of the game engine, which is why we don't have cloaks and capes.

    You do realize that the Crown Boxes cost 400 Crowns and will NOT guarantee receiving anything specific. So you may well end up paying 4000 Crown for a 1200 costume... or more.

    Gee, and here I thought the point of the costume was to finally have a costume that's fully bare-chested... at least that is what I think is the point of the costume and the reason I bought it.

    I honestly don't mind those things... because they offer 'some' armor and I like gauntlets, so this design works well overall IMO.

    Not a fan of the helmet either. Thought it was something like horse hair, but feathers makes sense...I guess. o.0 A hood would have been much better. I like the costume together with the occult symbols body art.

    Also...Why no hoods yets for hat category???

    Can somebody show a picture of the costume recolored. It seems to have a very dull foundation, the kind that doesn't absorb colors very well.

    Good point... I'm sure they'll be adding more hats... with the coolest ones no doubt heading for the lottery boxes. I'm not a fan of headwear anyway, but always wear the hood when I'm playing sneaky, the complete Assassin's League Medium armor set is an awesome work of art.

    I think the 1500 started with the OP's opening comment and people just kept using it, but it is actually 1200 Crown as noted by others.

    1200 crowns is still 500 too much...1 costume should be 500 crowns, 700 tops.

    Well, technically it's 720 Crowns if you buy them with Crowns you bought on sale. ;)

    Since when do ANY costumes have moment? They don't, and never will as stated by ZOS numerous times when people asked about moving capes and cloaks.
    I'm pretty sure the armor flaps that people so despise have movement.

    We can't have capes yet hair, flaps, tails, long grass, trees can move and bounce with us just fine I call lazy
