What are some other cosmetic options we could have? I was thinking capes and banners that players can carry on their back (see picture below). Or maybe group leaders could carry a banner/standard? We could customize them with symbols, colors, and shapes either similar to Diablo 3 or diverse as the CoD icon creation (lol).
The flag bosses in imperial city sewers have those banners on their backs that look pretty cool. Could add that as an alternate option to tabbards, or evens make more options to customize tabbards.
I'm curious to know why. This is my first MMO.
Would banners be included in that "no capes" rule?
The banner idea is a kinda cool idea. It would be great for PvP to show guilds kinda like a battle standard.
But......
On to capes.. This has been a discussion since launch.
Short Answer... They won't work. ZoS had a "Bretons Hero" costume, ( like the one on the video trailer), and it was horrible.
The "Cape" clipped to the legs and was very static.
Apparently the game mechanics won't allow it to work right.
Go to search and look up ALL the tons of previous "Cape" threads for a better idea of why and to see video clips of how bad the cape did look.
Hope this helps...
