 This is a request for a modification to the default mage champion armor that combines several changes to the armor available here and on the DA Nexus site.  I would really appreciate it if someone could give this a go.  This is not a request for the removal of the neck guard, I've seen a couple attempts and I agree that it does look a little odd.  I would really like it if we could get the mage champion armor to look like the one in the Destiny trailer  Specifically, these are the changes I would like combined if someone feels it is worth their time:

1. Purple Tint Removal.  I really like this mod and it is the one I have running at the moment.  Also, what is with the weird spurs on the boots?  I don't think I've seen a single horse in all of DA2 and only a handful in DA1.

2. Modifying the half cloak. From what I understand from this mod, the cloak is a seperate item from the armor itself.  So it should be modifiable without making the rest of the armor seem weird.  In the Destiny trailer the half cloak is more like the tattered skirt in the rogue champion armor with one side longer than the other.

3. The Neck Guard.  Yes, I would like to see it modified, not removed.  Simply decreasing how far it sticks out.  I personally think it works well with the look, but it does stick out too far and hangs too low to be a real neck guard.

4. Bicep size decrease.  Hawke looks like he's trying to smuggle cantalopes in his upper arm(to quote Yhatzee on this Resident Evil 4 review), and it seems out of place that he is suddenly really buff.

5. Leather.  This mod changes the leather on the armor to black from it's current tan colour.  I prefer the tan colour because it makes the armor more mercenary and slapped together rather than designed by a tailor.  But if the colour could be changed to a darker tone it would fantastic.

Thanks for reading and if anyone can tackle this, thanks a bunch.

Not sure I want any other modificationas aside from plasticky sheen removal and this one. SO MUCH THIS. His arm is pretty disgusting in that armor. Even just like, cover it up.  But it seems like a lot of work, so I'll just keep it in my dream mod list.

Also, the glove texture doesn't wrap around correctly, it annoys me.

Personally I like that he's "buff", not some weedy mage type. Why would mages always have to be weedy anyway, some of them may actually take combat training with staff as well, and work out. I know I would, if I was a mage :)

It's not that he should be skinny but that his arm looks like he's been pumping it with with silicone and then dipping it in vaseline.

He can be buff, but it needs to be toned the hell down.

Or maybe you should start playing women.

 I certainly agree that mages shouldn't always be scrawny weasels.  But honestly, can you look his upper arm and tell me that looks right?  That one arm looks buffer than all the sets of heavy armor.
Also, bump!

Yeah the mage arm is kind of creepy. I would also like that gone.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the bicep is a little much. I'm fine with muscular, but Hawke should say no to steroids.

Exactly. It's not a matter of not wanting him to be built, but sometimes it's a bit much. It's specifically look of the naked arm that bothers me, the rest is fine. If the arm were covered, it'd be fine. Right now it's a shiny, lumpy, veiny Trogdor arm.

I could try and make it less shiny for you. I can't make it any less lumpy, though :(

That would be great. What about any of the other requests? Difficult? Impossible? Unattainable?

I did the arm de-shine for Yuki, and she says it works, so I'll package it and put it up on the Nexus sometime today.

What exactly do you mean by "modification" in relation to the half-cloak thing?

If you compare the half cloak that the armor has from the waste down, it looks like..well, half a cloak and perfectly aligned.  In the Destiny trailer it looks a lot more like the skirt the rogue armor has: tattered and uneven.  All of the champion armors have a mercenary look of being thrown together, and it bugs me that the half cloak doesn't quite fit in.

Since it is a seperate part from the armor itself, maybe it can be changed so one side is longer than the other and is has rips and tears on the edges.  Basically less uniform and orderly.

I uploaded yuki's anti-perspirant. I'll take a look at doing something with the half-cloak. I'm not sure when I'll get around to it, on account of me really pushing forward with my companion armor mod, but this is on my to-do list.
