Which Cape looks more appealing to you? - Guild Wars Forums

Age · Aug 10, 2005, 08:39 PM // 20:39

I would like your advice on which cape looks more appealing to get new members as some have left.There are others tht aren't online for a weeks or a month.Please let me know thanks.

Umm...I like the 1st one, but I'd prefer something other than the green flames. Flames are way overdone in this game and usually attract the adolescent "these flames are kewl!" 12 year olds. If you are reaching for 12 year olds, then it is fine, but if your target is an older audience, stick to a more "classic" look.

Yellow_lid · Aug 10, 2005, 11:43 PM // 23:43

I like the first one, (and I'm not a 12yr old.)

Experiment_Jon · Aug 11, 2005, 12:20 AM // 00:20

Definatly the 1st one...thats pretty cool.

derrtyboy69 · Aug 11, 2005, 12:28 AM // 00:28

dont go with the first one. it seem like every noob guild just HAS to have the sword with flames. i would go with the second to be a little original

Marc Grahamsworth · Aug 11, 2005, 01:09 AM // 01:09

First one looks better IMHO - however, if you think a cape is going to help you get new members, remember that the fashion conscious amongst the players will have different coloured outfits and will try and colour-coordinate their outfits with the capes (to make a long story short, you can't please everybody).

DarkParrot · Aug 11, 2005, 02:23 AM // 02:23

2nd one, too many people have swords on their capes

ExplosiveBadger · Aug 11, 2005, 02:42 AM // 02:42

2nd one looks badass! you guys are nuts.

It's simple and the whole sword and flames is so overdone.

Divine Elemental · Aug 11, 2005, 03:10 AM // 03:10

2nd one
yea s stated
1st one is too comon

inspectreo · Aug 11, 2005, 05:53 AM // 05:53

Its not about whats common it's about what you personally like. I happen to like the first design better, but the color needs adjustments. Unless you don't like it when things are too common then go for the second one. It has nice colors.

Experiment_Jon · Aug 11, 2005, 06:42 AM // 06:42

Hmm, i've never seen too many of the first one. My old guild cape was far over used.

Red background, yellow flames, gold pheonix. I saw like a billion of them daily. It was bad...IDK, I haven't seen many lepurchaun colored capes, so I guess his is a bit original.

d4nowar · Aug 11, 2005, 08:13 AM // 08:13

Second one, but it looks like that person already has it...

Most common cape ever: Flames, sword, tattered bottom.

Charcoal Ann · Aug 11, 2005, 08:20 AM // 08:20

i like the second one

my favourite of all time is the beer keg on a plain white background...

βlitzkrieg · Aug 12, 2005, 10:50 AM // 10:50

Second one.

Weezer_Blue · Aug 14, 2005, 06:57 AM // 06:57

Neither. I like the first one, but that sword emblem is so overused that it's no longer cool. I don't like the boar head on the second.

Age · Aug 14, 2005, 11:56 PM // 23:56

Well if no 2 looks good what would be better than the boars head if that is what that is any suggestions.Thanks

Here are sample of emblems.http://www.guildwars.com/gallery/emblems/default.html

The Arcade Fire · Aug 16, 2005, 03:48 PM // 15:48

Definitely the second one if I see another cape with the sword/flames I think I may vomit

Emulated · Aug 18, 2005, 11:04 PM // 23:04

I like the first one. But I would defintley choose a different one over both of those.

Anya · Aug 18, 2005, 11:40 PM // 23:40

I like the second one, but I would get rid of the fleur (little symbol on the bottom) and use a different main symbol.

one of these maybe?

it really depends on what you like and what your guild is about.

I don't think your cape is going to make a huge difference with your people staying problem though.

#2.
The first one is already seen everywhere - and it's really not that interesting to begin with.
The second is more elegant - but I'd change the color of the emblem for more contrast.
