Default Costume headgears in PvP

I suggests that the newly implemented costume head gears to be visible during PvP play. It presents no real problem to PvP play as it acts similarly to a Mo Zhing Mask or a Dread Mask, just with more variety.

Furthermore, considering the fact that festival hats were permitted before the update (with the added setback of the 0AL of course), I can't see a reason why this should not be an option.

Body costumes on the other hand, should remain the same. This is due to the fact it could be disruptive to competitive PvP play as it can hide physical character professions and teams wearing the same costume could potentially confuse another team.

Lastly, it would be nice to see some variety (and creativity) in head gear and armor combination during PvP =)

I'd at least like to see this return for festival arenas. Not so sure it matters for real PvP, but I wouldn't be against that happening either.

This is the reason I didn't buy the new outfits... I don't see why PvP players are excluded...

Game balance has greater issues than costume headgear.

I'm all for this. I was all for the useable masks with no negative effects in the first place, and have been for at least 3 years. Makes no sense to add a hugely wanted feature, and then disable it for not only normal pvp, but also(And most puzzlingly)for the games that are a feature of the events that the masks are from.

Arrow Allow festival headgear to be used in PVP?

How about allow festival headgear to be used in PVP? Treat it like common headgear.

yeah, the only reason they dont allow it in pvp is because "we cant distinguish an ele from a warrior"...common sense says click on your enemy and see the E/mo or W/A

Costumes I kind of understand, but head gear should be allowed.

I am neutral as far as allowing it in the real PvP of RA, GvG, HA, CA, etc., but it should at least be allowable in arenas such as Dragon Arena or Snowball.

Also, costumes are a flat "no" for real PvP, but are maybe acceptable in some festival arenas. You run the risk of running into the same "I don't know what kind of character that is just by looking at it" problem in Snowball.

/agree, but I would laugh my ass off if I went against a group of 8 other players wearing big ridiculous lion masks dyed in a sequence like a rainbow
