Original Post

Hey all,

To try and gather everyone's feedback on the comp cape rework stream I'm creating this post.

Please give us constructive feedback that will help us when it comes to looking at the capes once more, before we poll them to you!

Hi guys,

Just to clarify once more, these are all variations of the Tier 1 Capes, where the exception is the Lore Cape which is T3 (Since Quest Cape is T1 and Master Quest Cape is T2).

This hopefully gives you a bit of insight as to how the base capes will look, and you can imagine how the next tiers will look with additional minor 'upgrades'.

I really liked the cape designs. Pleasantly surprised to see capes other than comp being recolourable.

However, it still feels like you guys are not getting the 'anti-group' sentiments. It's not about the difficulty of the bosses, it's about the fact that we are held back from game progression by a factor we cannot control: other people. Group PvM especially is a requirement of navigating discords and such, or having the right friends, rather than testing OUR PvM skill.

You guys constantly talk about "hard group PvM" and mention things like Telos as being issues too; while these are an issue to some, I agree, the biggest, by far, issue is and has always been, ever since Day 0 when Reaper was announced, the group aspect. Please, stop talking about it as if everyone that wants "Group" removed also wants "Difficulty" removed, we don't. I think if there was more understanding of this, some of the conversation might be more civil.

We were rushing through so we had time for the art, but in the very first stream we did on this I clarified this exact distinction. What's important to recognise though is what I said on this stream: different people think different issues are the important one. Group reqs is an important issue, but not the only one.

Did I miss something? Are the areas and activity capes scrapped?

These are categories within the comp cape, but we never planned to make capes for them.
