[Discussion] How Do You Wear Your Rares?

[Athelas]

What are you wearing?!

How do you wear your rares?!

Instead of putting you all to sleep with a long essay explaining this, I'll show you what I mean with a few pics!

Rather than show you Athelas (*snore* boring, you've all seen him... haha maybe later), say hello to my crafter!

After several reply's to the oversized pictures, I resized them - hopefully that helps us move forward! I want to hear how everyone else wears their rares!

Very Nice Setup @Athelas ... I like Timeless as a great description for you. I am a big fan of Double Blessed Items, so much so I named my crafter Blessed Blessed. I also like to display myself VERY COLORFULLY!
I do apologize for the picture quality, Long explanation, but print screen is not a button I have - I just took the photos with my phone.

10. A Mustachioed Mask Worn By The Patriots Of Britannia To Hide Their Visage From Tyranny

Pictured above are look-a-like vendors at my home that represent me and my bestie @Adeka


What do you guys think?
What about everyone else, show us your UO swag!

 

[Athelas]

Whoa, nice Tricorne hat! That tag is crazy hard to find!

 

[Scott]

@Smoot was the prior owner - I guess it's good to know people.

 

[Adeka]

OOOH, I love threads like this! Nice stuff so far everyone!

I try to fit things that are similar with one another if possible onto my characters. Thematic, if you will. Of course I like to play dress up to, but I do have a few go to themes for my ladies.

Here is Adeka again, her ensemble as changed a bit since you last saw her here. I wanted her to be rares and love. Here's what I mean:




So she's has some neat stuff now! The cloak was made by my friend Scott's crafter 'Blessed Blessed' so I had to Bless it myself!

Here is Aura Lala, my Necromancer Magician Tamer. She is dark and brooding lady, full of mysticism. And I tried to reflect that in her attire:




And Hera De Lune here, her name means 'Hera of the Moon'. So I tried to get as many items signifying she was the true goddess of the celestial sky!



And lastly, Collection. Collection loves love.


And apparently, she also likes to sleep!


That's all I will bother you all with. I hope you enjoyed it

 

[Scott]

@Adeka I love your idea with Hera De Lune - such a great idea!

W/e Makes Ya Look Cool Right???





Got to Thank Athelas For These!

 

[Scott]

@BluNtMaN[ATL] your sandals are one of my fave items in game. Great items!

No one will ever admit it, but many of us owe thanks to @Athelas for items we have in our collections - Major props to Athelas!

 

[Deaol]

I don't really have much left in game these days EM item wise, but I still have alot of my old clothing items...

*digs around the dusty old bank box*

First item

A Doublet (blessed) .. but is it a doublet?

Second item

A Shirt (blessed) .. but is it a shirt?

Third Item

A Very Nice Made By "ME!" Hatchet .. and blessed in my name.

Forth Item

A Shoes (blessed)

Fifth Item

Shoes Recovered From A Shipwreck (blessed) .. if I am feeling more fancy

Sixth Item

Scimitar .. unbreakable, no durability.. no idea on the rarity or even if it is rare.. but its an antique.


(more to come as I check more bank boxes)

Indeed Scott, indeed. I often wonder how certain collectors even have collections if it just so happens that a particular year wasn't a big selling year for me.

Whoa, nice Tricorne hat! That tag is crazy hard to find!

Are recovered from a shipwreck items hard to come by now or just certain ones? Any chance you have a link to a discussion about it?

The older ones are single line gold tag "a blah blah blah recovered from a shipwreck".
The new ones the "recovered from a shipwreck" tag is on the second line and in white.

single line tag are increasing hard to find, especially on certain items. finding one with a prepatch (blessed) tag from the same period is even rarer.

Thank you! Just coming back to the game after a break and I know I have some items somewhere in my houses. Guess I'll have to go through and try to find them!

On manikins

Haw Haw Haw, you are such a card!

I know you know how to post pictures now Manticore, why not wow us all with a few of those things up on your roof?!

 

[Peil]

Although she seems to have no rares...

She has good ring and earrings

It's simple coordinates cause she is a thief. *grin*
