Not sure if this would deserve its own thread, but meh.

Customizability!

The BG we saw on the pictures is wearing a dark blue kheitan, fading into purple at the bottom. His armour is what seems to be brass-coloured.

Now, what are we looking at in terms of customization here. I'd like for the robe colour to be different, where you can buy/loot various different styles and colours. Maybe even dye, like in LOTRO. As for the armour, same, really. Though I doubt that'll be possible, I'd definately have my armour gold-laquered, same as my minis.

As for the various tiers, that's really the main thing here. What will he look like at Tier 1, and at Tier 4? I think it's safe to assume the one we've seen:

Picture 1 (http://www.enl.party-site.at/gc-coverage/22.jpg) and Picture 2 (http://www.enl.party-site.at/gc-coverage/16.jpg)

is a high Tier, since the armour and equipment is so stylish. I'm a lot more curious as to what a low level would look like. Discuss.

Less amounts of plate coverage, smaller/less spikes. Probably different coloration. Stuff like that would be what you could expect at lower levels.

I remember from DAoC that you could buy dyes of all kinds of colors and shades, and in Guild Wars you could mix them to get certain colors. Or quite simply put in a dye vendor with a spectrum box that you could choose w/e color you want. If they include either of those along with the ability to select specific parts of armor it would be great.

All of this in addition to the ability to include trophies and such on your armor I think there will be plently of customizability

Hmm, hadn't really thought of that.
I would assume they'll start out with very run of the mill armor lacking crests, insignias, the cloth coat and very little on the spikes and a basic halberd without much length or jaggedness. As they advance in tier they would game more crests, more insignias, more ornate and spikey armor and a halberd that looks increasingly jagged and evil looking.

At the final tier they would look very much like the concept artwork, but with high elf heads impaled on their armor spikes with other such trophies befitting such a ruthless warrior. Or atleast, I can hope...

I imagine to start off with they'll look like the TT Dark Elf Spearmen models.
