Do you guys think that this will be part of the actual Tiers of armor or an accessory/trophy for doing a quest?
If it is a trophy do you think that regarding of where you put it on your character it will have the Lion's head off the shoulder or over the helmet and so on?

I think it should be a trophy.
And you get to choose were the lions head is.

why should it have to stay fixed?could it not be moved around for different bonus ?
e.g over the head for ranged protection and slung back for close combat ?
after all the law says that they use the cloak to protect against ranged fire while on the move and when in combat it is flung over the shoulder for better manouverability.....obv with visual representations :)
what ya think?

It wouldn't be fair if it was a trophy, because you always have to wear the cloak, and you would then have less trophy slots then everyone else.
Now i see them doing it too ways. one way being every tier the cloak is positioned differently on your back or where ever.
The other way and the more logical one (IMO) and i think they are probably going to do it this was, which is you choose where you want your cloak to be in the beginning of the game or in character creation, and it stays like that throughout the game.

I for one would love the cloak to be over the helmet like the avatar or over the shoulder like Korhil's mini.

I'm hoping for the ability to tweak appearance at the start of each tier - the first two Shadow Warrior concepts (1 (http://mythicmktg.fileburst.com/war/us/media/images/careers/swr_01.jpg), 2 (http://mythicmktg.fileburst.com/war/us/media/images/careers/swr_02.jpg)) show an alternative head model, so perhaps if my hopes are founded it's going to be possible to choose how the lion cloak would be worn every tier. This would allow the cloak to get more options and look cooler without having to be set in stone at level one. This would avoid the use of a trophy slot (totally unfair) and mean that you can dictate your appearance at each stage rather than from a blind decision at the beginning. Unless they let us see all the stages of development based on our choice at creation - though that'd kinda wreck the suprise...

Looking forward to see what they do for this too, there's very little that's as iconic as the white lion's cloak, so I really hope they don't disappoint.

Tier 1= Kitten skin on your head
Tier 2= Cat skin on your shoulder
Tier 3= White lion as a cloak
Tier4= Multiple WL skins all over your body so you are very hot.

I think if you wear a white lion cloak, your white lion pet should "mysteriously" disappear forever. Where do you think the pelt comes from? Trees?
Ps. I'd dye my white lion cloak pink. :rolleyes:

If a white lion has a pet, it's typically because they killed and skinned its mother, then raised the cub as their companion.

Oh great, I already have my pet's backstory all planned, in true lame traditional fantasy lore:
"You were living peacefully as a young cub with your family when an evil elf came into your territory, slew your family right before your eyes, and captured you. He skun your father and now wears him as a trophy before you as a reminder of what will happen should you ever disobey your master. The image of this elf slaughtering your family, the glee it took from their suffering and the sound of their meows as they were cut down without mercy haunts you. Yet you bide your time, growing stronger and accepting this slavery awaiting the chance to one day avenge your family and free yourself from your evil master."

Man, you are just chock full of good, helpful ideas arent you?
Warhammer IS traditional fantasy lore. If its lame, why are you here again? You list yourself as an archmage fan but then you go about making multiple posts blasting another high elf class? Am I seeing this right? The purpose of that being?
