What people think? Skins that can be unlocked at Rewards NPC or by identing the item in PvE, Then crafted for your PvP chars

System of making weapon can stay same but have a drop box in each box that you highlight for wepon type eg sword, staff, daggers than from the drop box you can pick skin you want.

This is more cosmetic to me as most PvP'ers look the same have the PvP Sword and PvP Shield and one in 5 chance they have the same PvP armor but giving the skin option would stop people looking exactly the same and would make battles less like Age of Empires where they all using same skin

Hope you like idea

This suggestion has poor timing.

Currently there is a way to get PvE skins on PvP characters, and that's by playing in the Automated Tournaments to get Reward Points and then spending them. This was added in an update yesterday, May 24th. You get one point for a win, plus additional points if you place in the top 16 for your bracket in HvH games. You get three points for a GvG win.

10 points will get you one piece of armor for one character. If that character is deleted, so is the armor you bought. This, of course, directly conflicts with the ability for a PvP character to re-roll in a moment's notice. I consider this system in that it removes the ability to re-roll, and it removes the ability to switch primary professions if you have only one PvP character slot.

Sadly, there have been a few indications that this new system is going to stay as-is. The only way to get new PvP skins is through winning ATS games (which I agree with), and then the rewards are only character-based (which I disagree with).

Yes i'm talking about making the unlocks account based like the skills and runes
Who keeps PvP chars that long?

I don't see why we can't make these skins unlocked with Balth faction. It's a reward system that's already in place. The tournaments, at 1 point per win, are already grindable if one has enough patience.
