Ive been taking it easy but ive i had a nice drop ( lvl 22 sword)

I finally managed to put it on and it has the same skin as the lvl 2 sword.

everything seems to look the same no matter what lvl.
When you lvl i feel a big part of it is getting new items that look nice and it gives a fresh feel abotu the game and a feel good factor when your chcacter looks better.

But im not feeling it, although i love the game just i feel the programming skin wise has been wanting


Anyone else feel this way ?

Yeah everything seems to look the same (atleast all the axes I've got).

I guess it wasn't their biggest priority to get "fixed" in the release.

yeah i guess they did have other things to fix . but the question is...


Would you have waited 1 more month for release if they were to make the skins better and a few more things smoothed out . I think i would have done but i guess it will be something e can all look forward to although im getting old now so i dont think ill be making many characters in this game . i cant handle it :) i fall to sleep to easy .

Maybe, but it's not due to the skins (CTD).

Anyway I think it's great that you can dye stuff everywhere and cheap. This has gotten me to ignore the lack of different skins (shame about the weapons though).

Weapons looked the same in daoc for a long time as well - I suspect they'll change stuff like this in some of the upcoming patches depending on how many bug fixes they must make.

Not too concerned about it - it is rare that I notice the details on the swords and axes bashing my little wizard over the head. :D

I'm 24 and noticing a lot of new skins appearing. My WHs pistol has a little bayonet on it atm, was duel wielding a few lvls earlier and got a nice new rapier. Seen some chosen with awesome looking armour and cool glowy sowrds. SMs also have some great shields and armour.

Past lvl 18 or so things change more frequently as the lvls slow down.

Does it really matter that low rank gear doesn't have many skins? You should be going through different weapons/armour every few levels.

I'd be disappointed if high end gear looks the same, but I'm not too bothered about low levels.

I dont know, I am level 21 and my gear (being a mix of blue influence and green RVR items) has looked the same since I started getting it. Same staff, same helm, same robe. I redye my clothes about twice a day just to feel like I am looking new.

21, above people are saying it doesnt pick up til the 20's, thats *halfway* to the max level. Bit late for variation to start picking up. Far too late. Granted at level 10ish you are getting shoulders and helms to flesh out your char, but so far for me they have all been identical! Really, getting tired of the trident helm on my sorc now.

I'm in the 20s and since start of the game there has been a few skins for helms/weapons. Not a lot but a few.

Even still at this stage, I have a weapon for maybe half a day so the artwork doesn't really matter, End-game there are an awful lot of different skins.


Also, 20 may be half of 40 numerically, but in terms of time invested 20 is less than half way to 40. 20-40 the xp really slows down.

playing as a dark elf soceress I'm only up to about rank 6 on it and I have only had 2 staff's that looked the same all the others have been differant. but chances are they will put more work into higher rank items as they will be used for longer.

How long have you DAoC folks been running around wielding this silly ?-shaped staff during the early days of the game? The first sparkling staffs and swords were introduced *really* late.

I'm 13, and up to now, every staff alternated between the one tiny skull on the top, and the two tiny skulls on the top. The latest one is a kind of three pronged thing, which actually a mini rams skull or something, with horns.
Every other shaman I see seems to have this staff with a crescent moon on the top.

So that's four I've seen, for shaman :)

Two levels ago, it was 2 though.

Guess what, some guy got a new sword which looked far better than his mate's did with its shining blade inscribed with rune's and a glowing particle effect leaving smoke effects as he swished it around....and he said "Ha my swords better than yours" so his m8 complains to mythic Nerf that sword its better than mine....

reason why i bothered to right this crap?

STOP FKING MOANING ABOUT THE FKING GAME, ALMOST ALL OF YOUR POSTS ARE MOANING ABOUT SOMETHING OR OTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

post something positive for a change please :D
