Read NecroReapers thread. That explains everything
Not to stray too far off topic but the 71 cap is now the Hawaiian helm instead of a volcano? I've read they implemented a new elite vanity helm but I still see the volcano in game. Could someone clear me up on which is awarded for what?
The volcano was given as the 71 reward before the Hawaiian helm. Several days later, sts designed a new helm because the volcano was "ugly" and replaced it as the 71 cap reward. The people who got their volcanoes kept them and received the new helm too
Soon the volcano will be like one of the coolest items to have since so few people have it (like droid)
actually, not many people wore CoP at all when it came out. it wasnt a vanity and a headpiece that completed set was preferred.Quote:

Yeah, it's related to culture, but it's a video game, not history class. I thought the whole point of playing games was to avoid school? I'm not saying we still can't learn, and part of these games' purposes are to educate us, but I'd chose a good looking item to better my experience versus a forced history lesson. The Volcanut would've went amazing with future updates, at least that's what I think. The new helm, not so much.
Thats the way I feel about it too! That is exactly the story. Im still hoping they re-release it later, it sounded like they have ideas for it. I give all the credit to players who went for the cap as fast as possible in the first day or second. They have the recognition & both of the helms. I should of went in hardcore & would have had it in like 2 or 3 days...ugh!Quote:

In fact, I thought the original helm was not the volcano and that they created the volcano because people complained about the other one.
Anyways back to Devil's advocate. Would it be possible still to remake it? Just for discussion sake. I mean even if it's crazy with all the history, what if the vast majority of people still hate it? Isn't the point to make a vanity that people will want?
Technoemail said they probably bring it back maybe..but making it unique is cool to
I think the feather "Mohawk" is a bit big, and it looks pretty goofy. Later on, though, people will think it's cool, and it screams "Elite!" to anyone who sees it.
If I had my way, I'd make the Mohawk thinner and curve closer to the helm in the back than the front. Hopefully it would look more like the actual Hawaiian headdress.
I kind of hope they do it like elite vanity sets. Like the 56, 61, and 66 are one set and the next three elite vanities become a set. Each giving their own bonus maybe. It'd be interesting.
didn't we had a bunch of those discussions yet??? I think we can leave it like that.
I think that all elite gear should be made to wear together...keep adding on for one mega gear. The more you can gather the better. That would really show respect to the people who have been here for a long time.
He's right:)Quote:

Lol, I DID read it, and it does a good job of explaining what it is. I'm just saying it just doesn't really look like what it is supposed to be. Tell me the truth, does it look more like the Hawaiian chief helm, or a greenish spartan helmet?Quote:

From the responses I've gotten back, I think there are people who do agree it doesn't look as good as it could, but not enough people care either way, or they are enamored enough with the story behind it, they do not care.
Personally, I'm happy to keep rockin' my level 56, 61 and 66 vanity gear cuz it looks 100x better anyway ;)
My view on the 71 vanity is it just doesn't look elite. The way they designed it has a weird matte finish and is big while the one in necros thread looks very elite and you would want to wear it as it is in the pictures he provides.
Just a level 66 point of view. A set bonus really can't make it look cooler. The CoP just looked really elite and many at high levels still wear it and those who didn't get it are beating them selves up because it is that cool looking.
I will like something like this lol

IMO a good vanity helm (or any vanity item) is one that matches well with other equipment you have. So far this vanity helm doesn't seem to match any of the Humania gear or any other gear. I could be wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Humania crafted sets having the same color scheme, and if that turns out to be true, then I think everyone will like it.
And that is how I feel in Star Legends. The first few caps we had gave us little to nothing except the 21 cap which only gave players access to crafted weapons. I'm grateful to get anything from STS. I would've thought the volcanut hastle would teach people to just be glad for what they have because complaining can just make it worse.Quote:
