When Hats Go Wrong and Right

Vamen · Post by **Vamen** » 11 Dec 2004 03:59 pm

Wrong:
My new hat was a lucky roll on my part from Scarlet Monastary. I couldn't wear it until 39, which I reached today. I was hoping for a sexy hat like my old one, but instead I got this. I look like M Bison or some sort of Russian ruler.

Right:
My old hat was from a warlock quest that I finally finished, ironically, about 5 minutes after I bought a much superior hat for a good deal at the auction house. But this pointy hat is my official "travelling hat"...

Very Right:
...and also, after a discovery while swimming with Xaus around Menethil Bay, it is also my official "shark impression" hat.

I dunno, I kinda prefer the M. Bison hat...

It's more unique.

It's easy to get the Warlock pointy-hat from the quest, but you don't see as many M. Bisons running amok!

oo that's a very good point.

HADOKEN! (or whatever M Bison says, anyway)

Now you need a pirate hat for your collection!

Hahaha!

I think I remember that they changed the drop of that hat from only being "Pretty Boy" to being a random drop from any of the pirates outside of Booty Bay.

I never got one, though.

I like that much better than the Admiral's Hat.

ooo how I pine for a pirates hat.

I actually have been killing pirates that guard Pretty Boy Duncan...maybe I'll get lucky and get a hat!

I'm going to have to buy a fourth bank vault just for hats if I keep this up.

I remember seeing that pirate hat in beta, I laughed so hard, it was great.

Holy crap, what the hell is that and where can I get one?

Hah, best hat in a game, ever.

Haha Driph, that's what I said too =)

Widge - It's a Goblin Rocket Helm, and can only be made by an engineer such as I who is trained in the secret goblin ways of engineering. Skill 250 I believe it was.

The Deep Dive Helmet (250 engineering) also has a similar look.

Engineers: We get the best hats.

I am so going engineering with Foible.

I've been looking all over to find the deep diver helm schematic Ringo. I'm assuming at this point that it's dropped, because I swear I've been everywhere =)

I hear that it's supposedly in Azhara, actually.
