Sy_Accursed Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I really don't like the cosmetic override. I prefer actual items so much more. Why exactly?Cosmetic overrides balance the concept of fashionscaping and items that look good and show what you want to show with the ability to use actual decent items. So many cosmetic items get cast away as useless simply because there's only a narrow band of training in which you can use cosmetic items and sacrificing armour/useful items for cosmetic has always been a ba idea. With overrides you get to use the perfect setup AND have the looks to fashionscape or show off an allegiance or w/e. No downside really. 1 Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urza285 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Since we are on the topic... The biggest downside is being limited to one DKB per worn slot. And frankly that's BIG (except for maybe max and comp capes). 1 Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!

Sy_Accursed Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 That is true that SUUUCCCKS, but that's not so much a flaw on cosmetic overrides themselves. That's a flaw of the system to convert normal items to cosmetics. I kinda wonder if the bringing weapon keepsake boxes is gonna fix that a bit, like as a hidden extra. Afterall if we can only have 1 weapon it'd be weird since weapons can only override their own type of weapon. 1 Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum_Myr Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 It's fine as long as the override doesn't take the DKB slot... Really, we should be able to store more than 1 item per slot (so that we can swap between)... 1 Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a bare min we should have mh/oh/2h slash, stab, crush, thrown. And then crossbow, bow, stave, book and wand.And even that would be a laxing of the rules since atm in melee it's more precise (eg rapier for rapier, whip for whip, axe for axe) 1 Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Really looking forward to overrides. As above, I hope they don't screw it up. I mean, what are they going to do for dual-wielding? Especially for some things that don't have an off-hand because they just haven't been looked at since EoC, rather than because there can't be one? Case in point: I would love to keepsake Dominion Crossbow, but it's 1H without an off-hand variant. Or possibly the mace from Crucible, which is also 1h with no off-hand. If we can only have ONE weapon keepsaked I will rage hard. And if they don't allow more keepsakes for each worn slot with this update, I'll rage minimally about that too. I still want to keepsake my horns. I've basically been saving my last chunk of runecoins from gold membership on the small hope that they'll allow all of this.

Is Dardan now an official source then?[/hide]Works for me, and it's a well known fact he has contact with jmods, so there's not much reason to doubt. Near enough the whole community has been aware of the issue (to avoid defining it as a bug/glitch) for months. One "famous" player vaguely eluding to be it being fixed "soon" is worthless. It's about time that Jagex fixed it, but Dardan being on terms with JMods, who would happily divulge when they are going to nerf a particularly popular weapon (which would lead to the rise of offhand drygores, granting Dardan and those he trusted , the opportunity to make some easy gp) seems a wee bit far-fetched (and slightly corrupt?).Forgive me for being sceptical, but if they do happen to nerf EE (and EEE) with the next update, then this is naught but a coincidence. 1 | | | A Blog to Bathtubs for BeginnersQuest Cape | 99 Defence Achieved 11-Jul-2011 17:41 | 99 Prayer 11-Jul-2012 | 99 Constitution 02-Aug-201299 Attack 31/10/2012 | 99 Dungeoneering 31/10/2012 | 99 Strength 31/10/2012 | 99 Magic 2/12/201299 Range 16/12/2012 | 99 Herblore 25/12/2012 | 99 Summoning 4/1/2013 | 99 Firemaking 6/3/201399 Farming 10/4/2013 | 99 Slayer 11/7/2013 | 99 Fletching 21/8/2013 | 99 Smithing 22/8/2013 99 Crafting 19/12/2013 | 99 Cooking 15/1/2014 | 99 Agility 25/1/2014 | 99 Thieving 01/02/201499 Construction 21/04/2014 | 99 Woodcutting 04/03/2014 | 99 Fishing 17/04/2014 | 99 Mining 23/07/201599 Divination 27/07/2015 | 99 Runecrafting 20/08/2015 | 99 Hunter 20/08/2015 | Maxed 20/08/2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At minimum the weapons would have to have same speed. Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
