Now costumes Were intentionally put to look good, or where a "costume" in your "costume" slot and still able to wear your gear, to look "stylish" and still be badass. Royal set (i pick royal because its the first to have combat stats) Take away from the original idea of "costumes" I would wear royal set because it gives me combat stats that overall make me stronger, but i would wear ninja because i look awesome. Now in a decision like this royal set wins because it helps you ninja just makes you look cool but isnt that what costumes are for? I dont want royal set, or the idea behind it to be nerfed but i do ask a alternative for something like this.. My suggestion is that we cut the bonus on the set and collecting the medallions gives you a free royal set (no stat bonus) and a Royal Gem Royal gem will have the same stats as the royal set and have the same properties, example no trading it,account bound. Once inside a certain iteam it cannot be removed. Tell me what you guys think and i'll go in further detail if necessary.

First you need to decide whether the royal stat to be apply to costume section only or accessible for anything. The way I see your thought was to have the gems and able to put into another costume (ie ninja set) but still able to have the royal stat with the look of ninja. But with Albe post, he wanted to have it as a piece of jewelry which kinda eliminate the "bonus" purposes of collecting the full costume.

Well my idea was be able to put it as the costume set cause then the gem in the earring type thing wouldnt be worth farming bosses for hours. The idea is to have the costume set bonus andbeing able to put it into your costume chest.

If that's the case, wouldn't it be little to unfair for those already have set bonuses? For example, all lucky spin set have drop and Exp bonus and now plus the AP bonus, kinda overkill.

Well they could use those drop bonus and xp bonuses still with this medal, it only goes into the chest of the "Set" Though the king sets bonus will be removed (still given WITH the medal)

[HellGuardian]

Like I said, it seem and sound unfair for those that able to have all the bonuses. What about a summon like the metal Moldie that gave you AP buff?

What all of the bonuses???

[HellGuardian]

The combination of Exp drops and AP and crit.

Hi There

I think the idea of a Royal Jewellery Set is feasable as long as it is account bound and not tradable.
But for the "Royal Gems" idea, it does not seem to be a good idea since players can put gems into
costumes and other jewellery and trade it.

IMHO, the developers did not give game balance much thought at all when they introduced the
"King Costume set" to the game.

Another solution would be to reward us with a Passive Skill.

Phish had suggested this, and he also brought up the fact that if more costumes are going to be released, we'll have stacked bonuses.

My opinion: make a Passive Skill as a reward, and just disable it whenever a new costume with new Stats gets released. Or cut the previous bonus by 50%, or make it 3% ap 1% crit. Idk.

Well the Gem would only work as a costume slot thing. it needs to be a chest IN the costume slot.

Yea this will probably work, but yea the stacked bonuses by cause a problem

Personally I would want them to remove all bonuses from COSTUMES. If they want to add bonuses it should be time-limited and only bonuses like slightly more exp/drop.

Costumes were meant to make you have your own look so you wouldn't look the same as, for instance, everyother Raider out there. Now they are making people all wear the same things again. It's lame.

[TankJr]

the passiv skill reward is the best opinion

but they should do it like that way:

we get a royal set

with the royal set wearing u get the passiv skill

--> but how u can prefent us wearing the set on an other char on the same account and get the passiv skill again?

do it like that way: we get a royal set which has an attribute which enable us to take the passiv skill

after we got the passiv skill the royal set with the attribute will be removed and we will be rewarded with a new royal set without the attribute

and the new royal set without the attribute could be made tradeable, too

Well this is content for us, and i like the idea of working hard to gain something that helps us. But the fact that they took the whole idea of a "costume" Really is just disappointing everybody in rose ina couple of weeks is going to look exactly the same, for that it shouldnt even be called a "costume slot" is should be called "Royal set slot"!

[CaNehDa]

I think upon obtaining the costume, the additional stats should be awarded to every char on that account, the costume have no added bonus.

I don't think this should happen until much latter, I think first thing that needs to be changed is making it a req to farm the 4rth grade medallions, this is the best "quest" on rose atm, and I just feel like to many people are obtaining the costume too easily.

Needing the Ulverik medal will make things a whole lot more challenging, and fun.

Should also increase the value of costume tenfold.
- Would also add a whole new low level bracket. - That people would want to have and make chars for.
- Could also make gravity profit as people may all start to refine more gear, as a new level bracket now would have a highly desirable reason to make new chars.
-It would kind of be like introducing "new gear" in a sense people would want this gear, but at the same time, the gear already exists in game, and wont kill all the people that just recently refined all their lvl 200 gear to (15)

This.

Never going to happen but it would be the second most intelligent thing to do, the first being to not introduce bonus stats on costumes in the 1st place.

Indeed this!

I am actually really pissed about the king sets and santa suits giving all kinds of stat bonuses. When they first introduced the costume system I knew it wouldn't take long before it would be ruined by exactly this kind of thing.

There is only one reason people haven't made a bigger deal out of this than it is, and that is because they spent the time and zulie getting the sets. Give them compensation for getting the sets, remove the set bonuses from costumes, and never ever make this mistake again, is what I think!
