Guild Capes - Guild Wars Forums

I've just arrived to Lion's Arch, and i've seen people wearing capes with background patterns that aren't even available at the cape-designer-man. How, where and when is this possible?

Furthermore > Is it possible to edit your cape design for.. perhaps a smaller amount of money?

Is it even possible to redo your cape in ANY way? I'm not the guild leader, so how should i know?

CatsPaw · May 20, 2005, 07:40 PM // 19:40

There are alot of different ways to do your cape.... and your cape can be changed, just cost mucha money.

Inhuman · May 21, 2005, 09:25 AM // 09:25

Ok thanks.. But i also asked if you, in a later part of the game, get access to different patterns?

Phantium · May 21, 2005, 03:06 PM // 15:06

Oh come on, it's only 2 platinum coins to change your cape.

No you don't get access to different patterns later in the game.

You can redo your cape but it's the same amount of money.

I heard, that there is a way to unlock 2 more Emblems, so this isn`t true?

Saridley Kronah · May 22, 2005, 10:48 AM // 10:48

Not true

Inhuman · May 22, 2005, 01:52 PM // 13:52

You MUST be lying, because i have seen a few guilds with capes that really are unmakable at the standard Guild Emblemers. Actually; the Guild Emblemers in Lion's Arch and Ascalon City DO diverge, as i remember it. So if there are a third or fourth emblemer somewhere, perhaps that is where they have made it?

psygnosis · May 22, 2005, 08:56 PM // 20:56

Maybe in the Underworld, hm? :/

Sure Mr. Smartypants, if you want to call me a liar then go for it.

You know the one thing I hate seeing on a forum is stuff like that. Inhuman
you have to keep in mind that when people post a reply their reply is based on their experience and knowledge of the game. Calling people names is simply unnecessary.

Take care everyone.

Peace

Edit: BTW Phantium nice to know that I can re-do my Guild Cape if I want to. But if I do the other members will have to cough up the 2p cause I payed the full cost of the 1st one hehe.

Leventh · May 23, 2005, 07:02 AM // 07:02

have never.. ever.. seen an unremakable cape.

Silvanos · May 23, 2005, 11:04 AM // 11:04

Inhuman sorry to say there are no hidden designs or emblems and such. Maybe they look different is because due to a difference in colors it brings out a certain part of the design. Like my flame design with small golden dragon. Being so bright there is a clearly visible line straight up through the center. Im sure this will answer your question.

Hehehe, come to speak of it I've changed my guild cape over 10 times and i coughed it up all myself. That's 20 plat.

DigitalX · May 23, 2005, 01:48 PM // 13:48

actually come to think of it, the guild design that i put on my guild capes, i've never seen ANYONE else using it... atleast not since the April BWE... I haven't checked to see if its available at the guild emblemers, but either it isn't anymore, or just no one likes it ^_^ but I could be wrong... I use that upward flame design, not the flames around the edges thing... thats used too much lol

Should've taken a SS of it...otherwise hard to tell who is the lyer here

S{R}Raptor · May 23, 2005, 10:26 PM // 22:26

Um can you make your own guild emblem and use it on the capes,or is that not possible at all?

The IOU · May 23, 2005, 10:33 PM // 22:33

It's not possible...

S{R}Raptor · May 23, 2005, 10:36 PM // 22:36

Darn you would think that would be avialable in this type of game. O well thanks for the info.

nechronius · May 23, 2005, 11:16 PM // 23:16

Are you SURE you're just not using the cape design controls to their fullest?

On part of the interface there's two sets of side arrows: "< >" and "<< >>" and what I didn't realize was that each represented a separate cape function. At first I thought that maybe the "<< >>" meant scrolling to the top and bottom of the logo list rather an in increments like "< >" do, but it turned out that the "<< >>" actually controlled the secondary background color/design.

Hmm... I could be wrong about what the two sets of arrows actually do, but I just recall specifically that I didn't realize they were completely different.

There's literaly billions, if not trillions, of possible cape design combinations if you use the designer to its fullest extent. Sure some of the combinations are virtually undetectable (like a slightly darker shade of color) but it's still there.

You have to strictly control certain aspects of the game to make sure that it stays "Rated E for Everyone," or at least family friendly.

I'm sure they'll have another logo design contest at some point in the future. When that comes up, make sure you submit your original designs.
