Difference between revisions of "Costume"

Navigation

Click on the costume name or visual example to navigate to individual costume pages with more information about how to get them and other useful things.

To clarify: in the "slot" column of this list, "helmet" means "helmet costume" and "armor" means "armor costume." Costumes cannot be equipped as actual gear, but gear can be equipped as costumes.

Finding Things

If the costume has an icon in the "name" column, you will be directed to a page with more information about that single costume. If the name doesn't have an icon, then there are more color variations of that costume than shown, with the "visual" column displaying an example (some bending of this organization explained below) and you will be directed to a page with a list of variations at the bottom.

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 is in the list according to the first date of release (Hunter's), even though the Surge and others were 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. These sets may or may not be official sets.

If the sorting seems to be behaving oddly after you've sorted multiple columns, that's normal. The table is attempting to remember your previous sorting, but this can be weird sometimes. Simply refresh the page to reset the table.

Organization

A costume will get its own slot in this list as well as its own page if it qualifies for all three of the following:

1) It has its own description that is even slightly different than other descriptions of similar costumes

2) It has a different type (a.k.a form, shape) or unusual coloration compared to other similar costumes

3) It is in a very distinct Group

Otherwise, it is slotted into a relevant list on the relevant page.

The current exception to this is the Jack o' Bombhead Mask, because the rest of the bombhead masks considered together make #2 difficult to keep consistent.

This makes this list different than other lists like the Accessory list, but that's fine - different types of items have different properties with lots of different kinds of associated information. Accessories don't have as much information in-game as costumes and other items do, so it's easier to put more accessories onto a single page. This isn't prudent when an item has more information.

If a costume seems "unique" in form and/or group, leave the data entry a blank. There needs to be more than one kind of that sort of categorization to warrant a group or form to be sortable.
