Alternate cape types
I notice that all the capes are basicly the same shape, it is cool to make your own symbol and all, I realy dig it.
I'm interested in more customization options though, not just cape emblem, but cape type or other cape like back pieces would be nice, either as alternate cape designs or as rank affiliation in ones guild.
Making a cape that totaly drapes over the shoulders would be a bit cumbersome if it interfered with the hands, but it would be cool if there were capes that had shoulder rest, or raised capes (kind of hard to explain) something like a cape that hangs from raised shoulder pads. Other designs could include a split (like thin banners hanging from each shoulder) or a single banner hanging from one shoulder, or a low hanging mid section cape.
This could be an option for either guild design or have different type of capes assigned to different ranking members by the guild leader.
Any how, I thought it would be cool if there were several different kinds of capes, it would help distinguish guilds and add alot more personality and originality to guilds or ranks. As for the emblem, the color patterns could be compressed wile the emblem could be shrunk and set in a small section of the cape (banner, scarf, or whatever).
Just an idea, something I would like to see in an expansion, it is always nice to have something new or exclusive along with an expansion.

I would also like to see the cape as a toggleable item, or as you have said a scraf, tattoo or something as well.
Since I hate the way capes look... they look cool of Warriors, but rubbish on Elemenalists such as myself.

I was about to make this suggestion, then realized I already had. And instead of making another thread on it I figured I would just bump this.
I still want more cape designs, of the 100s of armors they are adding in each chapter, it would be way more enjoyable if they added new kinds of capes.
Capes should still have the same colors and emblems that each guild designates, but players should have a variety of capes, and players should be able to pick their personal cape type instead of a stamp all for the guild.
Alot of characters don't look good with capes, not the capes we have, and many more would look better with different kinds of capes. I repeat my idea for more cape types, capes were one of the attraction points of the game, what good is it now if everyone has a cape of nearly the same fashion and they are so bland and uncustomized that the most popular feature is to remove it.
Instead of Guild rank capes, I think personally chosen capes would be better, there are soon to be 10 classes in the game, and only 2 of them look simular, the capes don't look right on many of them, and much better ones could be made for all of them, I sincerely wish that this was improved, of all the armors and weapons they are adding to refresh the game, none of them would be more enjoyable and impressive as new types and kinds of capes and banners to wear on your back which are personally selectable. And as seperatly purchased items they can also work as a simple vanity gold sink for people who simply want to look better, with several new kinds of capes and a few better variations of each with higher cost.
