Why are ranbows the worst looking items in the gam
#32108 - 08/13/07 11:42 AM

Really, the rainbows i have gotten for mages are..well, DUMB.

I cant be the only one that feels this way... people look like CLOWNS. Its really not cool, or anything i would want to gain.. I need to look cooler, more powerful, not like i just came from a rodeo .

So, fighters with oversized pizza cutters and meat tenderizers are fine?

I think that some of the silliness is the point of the game. It makes fun of the midieval MMORPG genre.

I have yet to see a rainbow weap that I don't like. Heck... even some of the purps look great. I wouldn't mind seeing one that looks like a potato peeler or a length of pipe. As far as the clown look... it would be kinda neat to have the weap add to the look of some armor. How bout having the pixie duster combine with another piece of armor to make you look like a french maid? That would rock.

Oh... and looking "cool" is relative. What looks cool to one person may be looking like a fool to another. And I think this game combines both. To look cool you must look like a fool.

I kinda like most of the rainbows I've found.

Right now I have 2 Skullioisis'ssisis's pick's with cow heads or something on them, but they kinda go with my full set of lvl 100 Dark Plate:)
Also have a Moonglaze which is cool, have had My pretty Puncturer's before, Kings Plate, the Blue Sheer Protection, a Buffalo Bill's Suit, 2 or 3 Plate Piercers, Country Fried Amulet, Wring, Circus Ring, Lost and Found Ones:) and an assortment of others but the have all been fun to see:)

I cant speak on other items i haven't seen. Yeah, the g-tars and what not are fun, don't mind them.. But the mage outfit...OMG.

Just saying, the low level stuff looks kinda cool, but the high level rainbow items, at least mage clothing, look horrible, and go beyond simply silly or fun with the neon colors and clashing colors.

I think the names of the rainbow items are weird.
For example, Sissrat's cousin's brother's sister's aunt's father's sstaff.

1) they're supposed to be weird

2) I think this is a reference to a scene in Conan The Destroyer.

I enjoy the uniquely designed items, and honestly wished there were more.
