    Angry Overachiever's helm

    I know a lot of complaints have come up because of the reward for capping rhino/vixen in 4 days, but really STS? When I stash helm and wear on my main it looks exactly like the promo code helm. I paid 1600 plat and spent 18 hours grinding for a promo helm that everyone got for free? I'll post picture to show. Hopefully its a glitch. If not can you please change I don't see why I can wear elite cap helm, but it has to not look like it... that is silly. Please fix thanks. I am also posting in bug section.

    I like that it only shows off for your rhino/fox, after all that's who achieved it. I doubt they wanted to make it so it could be worn on all the toons who could not have got it. That's just me tho

    Thanx for posting the pic of the helm, I was curious about seeing that since I failed lol to place myself. Even tho the prize wasn't amazing, you guys ripped it.

    Personally I wouldn't pay 1600 plat just to cap a fox/rhino and get a red version of a free vanity helm.

    Just my opinion

    wait, people also get to have a CAPPED FOX/RHINO player too. Isn't that the main reward for doing it? To have a player at the cap? The helmet should just be icing on the cake.

    It isn't though. I already have a few 76 toons. I wouldn't have done if not for the Helm. My guild tries to hold a standard of having some of the most elite members in all of alterra. So when STS issues a challenge like this we have to take it. Only reason I was the one in guild who decided to jump on the grenade was because I felt it would be worth it to have a very rare helm on my main that only a few others in game have. I collect items like that. Founders, Black Dragon sets, all discontinues, Dragon Egg shield, etc. And to make it turn blue is silly. I capped it and should be able to wear it on any toon without it looking like free promo helm.

    I didn't even know this was an available reward. I did it for the egg on my bear and would've done it for my rhino had I known that there was extra stats available.

    wait, there are stats with the helm? I thought Vanity items with stats was a no-go with STS anymore?

    I'm not sure if you all are aware... but in software... there are things called technical issues and bugs. There is actually a forum for these "technical issues and bugs" here. Instead of whining about how terrible and unfair it is... perhaps you should first tell them there is an issue. And maybe they will fix it.

    That's what STS was banking on.
