Breakfast Topic: What overcloak designs would you like to see?

Posted Feb 25th 2010 8:00AM by Matt Low

We found out on Tuesday of the new ability to toggle customized overcloaks that replace the look of your cloak (but leaves the stats intact). As a dwarf priest, I would proudly wear the Ironforge colours of gold and red. But I wouldn't have a problem wearing something else that looks as slick as say the insignias of the Argent Crusade. From a guild perspective, I think the guild tabards in game are okay. The problem with tabards? My beard covers it up. I know for other classes and races, the tabard has that "tucked in" look. Many comments from the overcloak post mentioned overcloaks with guild tabard designs on them. Not a bad idea and that is something I hope we'll get to see.

Now I have to ask, what cloak designs are you looking forward to wearing?

This is a centre of tolerance! We don't kick people to the kerb or bung them in gaol for spelling! We only do that if they're of the wrong faction!

Sorry Canada, the UK, and other users of proper English. We'll take care of him.

Oi, Canadians also spell colour with a U. Personally, and this is because I'm bias, I prefer the U spelling.

Clydtsdk-Rivendare Feb 25th 2010 3:31PM

The "u" spelling makes no sense to me. It's pronounced "CUHL-ur", not "cuhl-OR" or w/e.

Then again, I'm just one of them American hicks.

YEEHAW! LOK'TAR!

Its not the British spelling, it is the English spelling. Things like honour, valour, armour, colour, favourite, etc... Are only spelled without a U in America. Which is why I would really like Blizzard to allow me to toggle the in game spelling to proper English, 'Merikan is a pet peeve of mine.

Actually Clydtsdk-Rivendare, without a 'U' there would be a major emphasis on the first O sound, just as without a 'U' valour would have a major emphasis on the A. Essentially you are looking at words that ought to be pronounced Cuhl-er and Vahl-er into Cohl-or and Vayl-or.

This change will not impact me. To quote Edna 'E' Mode of The Incredibles, "No capes!"

"Do you remember Thunderhead? Tall, storm powers? Nice man, good with kids. November 15th of '58! All was well, another day saved, when... his cape snagged on a missile fin! Stratogale! April 23rd, '57! Cape caught in a jet turbine! Metaman, express elevator! Dynaguy, snagged on takeoff! Splashdown, sucked into a vortex!"
