Gear slots

We wanted to create something that would handle a couple of different roles, with obviously your equipment slots for what we call a "paper doll", which is that display of your character. Eventually it won't just be a image of your character, we hope to have the 3D character and be able to rotate around, look at what you're wearing. And then we wanted to support a couple of different features here, with some base stats; the equipment, which will show what equipment you have available to quick swap, so you don't have to have your inventory and the screen open; detailed stats for those people who want to get into all of the details; and then of course gear sets. So this is going to be able to swap to your sets of gear quickly; and being able to save different loadouts.^[21] – Colby Marchi

官方正考慮加入玩家自製圖像的匯入功能。^[38] 此前未曾有這樣的考慮。^[39]

將會有在線的遊戲管理員監管這些圖像。上傳不適當內容的玩家帳號將會受到處罰。^[40]

I know previously we had spoken about not allowing custom user images in the game, however I think we're leaning more now in the direction of allowing for custom user images. Absolutely well what it will be is the fact that we're a subscription game and if you want to jeopardize your account by doing the wrong thing with regards to custom users [images] then by all means you may do so and we'll have stringent practices in place to prevent that from actually being an issue.^[38] – Steven Sharif

With regards to this UCC question, I think when you have an active an active GM team that you are you have directed to care take the product you're going to mitigate a lot of that functionality you don't want to see out of this custom image system. People who look to let's say meme the system are going to be met with the type of enforcement that they don't want to have on their account; and being a subscription-based product and being a risk versus reward and maybe a more old-school approach to character development and progression I think they're gonna take a significant risk in doing things that we don't want them to do, which will result in the jeopardy of their account. So I think that is not going to deter a hundred percent of things- I don't think you ever can deter a hundred percent of things unless we go away from custom images- but I think that we can achieve some parity of essentially enforcement versus infraction ratio that's going to be liveable for everybody.^[40] – Steven Sharif

Crowdfunding guild rewards

Guild themed character cloaks were cosmetic rewards for backing at the Leader of Men level or higher in the Kickstarter and 夏季众筹 campaigns.^[44]

Guild cloaks can not be applied over costumes.^[9]

Guild cloaks will work the same way that accessory appearances from the cosmetic packs work, in that they are applied to the item and take over that appearance. They can not be applied over costumes. ^[9] – Cody Peterson

Kickstarter/夏季众筹 guild rewards^[45] are assigned to a guild by the owner of the reward.^[46]

Once assigned, the reward becomes an asset of that guild.^[46]
Guild members that leave the guild no longer have access to the unique items of that guild.^[46]
