Har har har. :P

But don't forget that she bookended that command with "By the Mistshadow". You know what that means, right?

Yes. It's a faction item. Other temples' clergyfolk get cloaks. Leirans get headgear because Leirans are special. ;)

Now that I think about it, was the "hooded skull mask" helmet always in the Thay haks, or was it added later?

Yeah, that's the page I visit now and then. It's how I came up with my Cleric of Umberlee's appearance back on the Pirate Isles server; after CEP 2.4 came out, I was sure to add the fluffy-collared cape too. Too bad it's in Portugese, but it's nothing that Google Translate can't remedy. ;)

As for the traditional Leiran cleric garb, the closest that our colorset has to that mahogany color is Dark or Darkest Tan/Red. But we run into a problem when we get to the Metal colors, because Tan/Red isn't on the Metal palette. So we have to substitute Dark Chestnut instead. Sure, you could just cover the whole suit of armor with one of those wizard robes under the Robe options, but who wants to do that when they can show off their lovely chainmail? (Besides, many servers frown on that sort of thing.)

So what I did tonight for Corella's armor (along with a few changes, because it's about time her "battle cleric" armor got a makeover):

(Ha ha. She looks like one of those guys from Magicka!)

"But Wids," you're thinking, "I want to be cool like you and roll up a Leiran too!" (Okay, maybe you weren't thinking that, but you are now!) Well, that's ducky! Here's how I did the rest of the costume:


1) You take your helmet and change it to that "skull mask and cowl" deal.

2) Then you give your helm the following colors:

Leather 1: Mirror
Leather 2: Mirror
Cloth 1: Dark Tan/Red
Cloth 2: Light Tan/Red (because the cowl's mesh darkens its assigned color just a bit)
Metal 1: Dark Chestnut
Metal 2: Dark Chestnut

3) After that, you go to your cape and change it to that Talona cape. Leira's holy symbol is a pointy-side-down triangle with swirly shades of gray inside it, and while we can't get the exact thing, we can get close enough. The swirly paisley patterns on the Talona cape certainly don't hurt, if you're going for that "misty" vibe.

4) Then you give your cape the following colors:

Leather 1: Darkest Tan/Red
Leather 2: Mirror
Cloth 1: Light Tan/Red
Cloth 2: Dark Tan/Red
Metal 1: Mirror
Metal 2: Mirror

5) After that, you'd better go on down to the Temple of Leira and lie your butt off to get your foot in the door and join the clergy, because we're a pretty exclusive bunch. And frankly, I don't think you're good enough. So dream on, Professor Honesty McPersonalIntegrity! Nyah. :P


That's it. Any questions?
