1. Regarding the "collared cloak":
Our guild was trying to reskin to collared cloak on alb (similar to the one you can get on hib when completing the classic quest), however several members were unable to reskin it. I think this is a very benign change that would help with classic aesthetics. My goal is to make the game look as classic as possible. I love the classic reskins and think there should be more emphasis on them.
2. Regarding everybody running around with TOA/Champ Reskins:
This ruins the classic environment. I'm fine with them being implemented but I think the price should be MUCH higher in terms of feathers/bps. As it stands with the RvR task system, its very easy to get 10k BPs. I would make it 30k Bps or 50k feathers. Make the players that have these changes really work for them, because after all, we are playing a CLASSIC server and everybody running around with reskins looks so WOW-like that it can ruin your experience of classic daoc (Yes, it matters).
3. Offer class-specific epic armor reskins:
I would make one reskin where you can change your armor pieces to the reskin of your class' original epic armor. In classic RvR, it was always nice identifying players based on their epic armor. This is a core feature of the classic experience however people dont use epic armor because its obviously inferior to SC'd gear. I would humbly suggest offering class-specific epic armor reskins so that people can have their SC but make it look like their epic set. I would go as far as to make these epic armor reskins the cheapest so that people can "pimp" themselves early on but still appear to be wearing their epic set. This makes the classic feel better.
