Hildy and Torchy were at Icon tonight, getting their capes.
As I was exiting, I noticed someone with a local tell, “Type /cov 1 for cov costume parts.”
And Margie went back in, typed that command (“/cov 1”), clicked on Icon … and had access to villainous costume parts.
Interesting …
(There are, we note, some very cool Villain capes. Including “Feathers,” which Avo should very much look into.)
UPDATE: Why, yes, that is Fazenda with real fishnet stockings. And a top hat. Yay!
Done! I made extensive changes to Avo’s costume, and the fee of I1,410,000 was waived. When I finished, I saw that I had 8 free costume changes remaining. How the…???
Fazenda was online when I started my tailor session, and I was going to show you the new costume, but she was logged out. Then, of course, I saw the pic of her when I came here to post. Guess we were both up to the same thing this morning! 🙂
The Devs have given players a ‘free’ costume for each number of costumes you have, twice now that I know of. Once for the Christmas season and another for the Valentines day stuff.(Toga)
These stack apparently. I am guessing they added more with the availability of the villain costuming options as well. ( Which means Sword potentially has 12 free costumes.)
Think I’m going to have to look the new options over sometime.
I don’t think this has been specifically announced as of yet.
But, yes, costume respecs stack, so if you haven’t done many, you probably have multiple ones free. That worked well for Torchy (who I had to go back in to fix after I inadvertently clicked on “Next”).
Quoth Cuppajo:
Wow. I knew that hanging out with villains could tarnish the nobility of heroes, but to learn that even just wearing their costumes could corrupt you … hmmmmm …
In all seriousness, be careful about this. I probably won’t be doing anything with it (further), but I’m glad I did it with Fazenda, whose costume was the most lacking.
You maywish to post the WARNING as a second update.
Costume Curiosities, the Sequel
CuppaJo on the resolution to the CoV costume thang: The /cov command is being removed on Test today, Live tomorrow. More warnings about how it could screw your toon up to use it (though the Dev response was low-key enough…
