The hooded version is also Cloudmantle. It used to be an extremely rare drop from Helegrod in the pre-scaled version. It may be on the barter vendor now, but I'm not sure.Quote:

I strongly suspect this cloak is an extremely rare random world drop, so I've been examining every one I find in hopes of lucking out.
I did send the original poster of that screenshot a PM when I first saw it, but no reply; if his forum activity is any indication, maybe he has left the game. Perhaps this mystery will remain unsolved until he comes back and answers it for us...
Ive seen that before :DQuote:

Happy Friday everyone! I've been trying to make a Hill-man themed outfit, and thought I'd share the results. If you'd like to see more pics and the list of pieces, please click here. :)

I think my hobbit looks adorable in the Ajokoira outfit :) It also looks cool on my Elf but I prefer this more, it highlights how small and chubby hobbits are. The Lossoth steed from the Anniversary festival is also a nice addition to the outfit.
(the cloak is Ceremonial Cloak of Mammutti, can be bought in Forochel if you have enough rep)

That's not the one, I'm afraid... the Mordirith's Bane cloak looks like this:Quote:

C.T. here Starry, fine work as usual! Can't say I'm fond of the chestpiece (ditto for all Helegrod armor, basically), but you managed to find a good niche for it here. Hill-men, who'd have thought?Quote:

The Skirmish Cosmetics vendor will sell you the Well-worn Tunic and the Wash Day Dress, both pretty nice shabby stuff! The Well-worn Robe could be another option from the same vendor.Quote:

Does anyone have any ideas/links for cosmetic ideas for my dwarf RK? On my champ I like the ToO armor set cosmetics enough that I just wear those around, with no cloak and a crimson-dyed quiver.
For my RK...I just don't generally like the look of robes. I'm not usually huge on cloaks, either, so if there's some sort of backpack that might be more RK appropriate I'd be interested in that. I like the boar mask cosmetic, although I wish there was a way to get rid of that little pig nose thing up top as it makes an otherwise cool mask look sort of silly. For the rest of the outfit, I'm thinking maybe leather type stuff? I plan on making my hunter have the more tattered, woodland ranger type thing going on with greens and browns, so I'd prefer a more clean, esoteric sort of look for the RK. Black works for sure, but I don't really want to look too...burglarish, if that makes any sense. Right now I'm just rocking the darker ranger set from the Vol. III rewards, but I'm getting tired of it and you see a million hunters running around with these cosmetics anyway. I got the light-colored one on the RK to see how that'd look but it doesn't dye very well and has that gross pale green in places that you can't really do anything about.
So, suggestions welcome, but if it involves stuff that drops in old raids and whatnot it will likely be hard for me to obtain.
Why don't you check out the range of cosmetic Raid armour pieces that are now available at the Skirmish Camp cosmetics vendor? The Helegrod Runekeeper robe is great for a dwarf and has a beautiful adorned back that needs absolutely no cloak. You don't even really need shoulder guards. Try it on in the dressing room and test it in different colours. You could also use the Robe of Viisaus (quest reward from Volume I, or available in the store) and dye it in a more stunning colour like Crimson or Ered Luin Blue.Quote:

Consider changing your hair and beard colour to match your new outfit and visit a Barber!
Hi C! Thanks so much -- glad you like it! The Helegrod pieces definitely do well from some finessing, I agree. But once worked in with other pieces you can get some really surprising combinations. :)Quote:

My Guardian has never had a proper battle-dress I've been truly content with, so the other day I rummaged through what stuff I had in the "RP Gear" tab of his vault and came up with the below. No theme in mind to start with, no full range of stashed-away stuff to work with, and I got this: I'm dubbing it his Arnorian Adherent look.
Given that I don't have Wardrobe access (still trying to confirm what it does and doesn't allow!) I'm pretty satisfied with it, just that the boots clipping through the skirt anytime he's not standing still gets on my nerves somewhat...

Ah, thanks, I forgot about the Skirmish guy. I generally didn't like the look of a lot of the old heavy armor sets on my champ so didn't think to check out the other options there. I might have to give the regular skirmish armor guy a look, too.Quote:

In "General Discussion" I always have to search for it ;)
A while ago when I visited Micheal Delving to make myself a new traveling outfit, I saw this wonderful huge flower! Quickly I ran to admire it and imagine my suprise when I stumbled over the mysterious hobbit lad Telitoro, smartly dressed in green attire to camoflague with the grass! ^_^
Here we are, enjoying the sunny afternoon and just having a great time:

The outfit turned out like this:

A bagpack filled with tasty food is a must on a long journey and the hat protect from both strong sunlight and rain! ^_^
~~Superb outfit, incredible presentation and context. +Rep to you and deep /bow. Amazing!!~~Quote:

To first answer the previous question: I'm not sure exactly the name of the piece, but I do know that it's the Watcher Minstrel shoulder piece.
Anyway, I have a couple new outfits for my Warden. One I really like, one i'm experimenting with, so any feedback on the 2nd outfit is greatly appreciated!

This red outfit is the one I really like.

This is my experimental outfit after recently receiving the Barad Guldur Warden's Helm.
I love the silver warden outfit, it looks really sleek and elegant but at the same time totally functional.
Thanks very much! I actually read your wardrobe guide some time ago... will take another look into it the next time wardrobe slots go on significant discount. =]Quote:

Here's my Hobbit. I think it's simple but a nice combination for a burglar.
