This table is generally sorted by Order of Release. Other color variations released "later" do not factor into the DoR order - only the first form made available does. For example: "hunter" and "surge" Fur Caps just fall under Fur Cap, and Fur Cap stays where it was in the list according to the first date of release (Hunter's), even though the Surge was released after Hunter. Within-groups, items are listed helmet first, then armor, so that the table sort of shows them as a "set" when sorted with the Group column.

Accessories don't have as much information in-game as costumes do, so it's easier to put more accessories onto a single page. This isn't prudent when an item has more information.

Revision as of 21:28, 22 January 2015

A Costume is an aesthetic item. It does not have combat statistics like Helmets, Armor, or other gear. Most are randomly obtained from Prize Boxes.

List

Editor Note Below is an elaborate sortable list. This show/hide contains information about how to use the list efficiently.

Notes

Arsenal icon for costumes.

Once a Costume is bound it cannot be unbound.

Currently, costumes only come in the form of "helmet" or "armor."

Costume items can be "equipped as helmet costume" or "equipped as armor costume" from your arsenal - they're in the ArsenalTab-Costume.png arsenal tab. Armor and helmets with combat statistics can be equipped as costumes from their own arsenal tabs (if they are equipped as costumes, they don't factor into your combat abilities). Costumes have no effect on your abilities in the field. Like armors and helms, many of them have accessory slots. Logically, no expiring costume has accessory slots.

Costumes are often released in commemoration of an event or promotion. Some of them expire (because celebrations come and go), but most of them last forever. There are many costume sets as well as single "hats" and "suits" and so on. Many costumes come in collections of varying colors, such as the Field Cap, or "forms," such as the Scale Helm vs. the Iron Dragon Helm. It can be difficult to find what you're looking for due to this variety, or if you're not sure what something is called, so there are a few pages that organize what's available - navigate to the "See Also" section of this page for links.
