Customizable Armor
Yeslew5 says:
The idea of costume armor and helmets is great and all, but wouldn't it be even better if you could make them yourself? Imagine this. You walk into the armor shop. You buy a chestplate, three flame emblems, some bolted sholderpieces, and a leather belt. You leave the store and go to the tailor's. You enter the armor menu where your character is displayed on a rotating turntable. you then click and drag parts from your inventory onto your character. you move, rotate, and scale the parts until they look just right. However, certain parts only work with certain types of base armor(very plain armor that will replace the costume armor slot). For example, a jelly visor only works with monster-type armor. Other pieces will work with any armor. Those would include emblems and other decorative items. The armor files would be stored with the rest of the player's data. This would add much more customization to the game.

Claws
Rebirth47 says:
So on the topic of Dual Wielding a great weapon would be claws. Generally, they with list under swords or dual swords and would pretty much be used as a quick melee offense.
I suppose Claws could either take a second weapon slot or shield slot(or maybe even both). If shield then perhaps some claws if not all have a built in shield mechanism that can activate like a regular shield. The shield can be influenced by the elemental properties of the claws. For instance, physical contact with a shielding knight wielding stun claws may cause minor stun.
Charged Claws can either preform a lunging move, dash and cut, or a energy wave projectile. Also a grappling claw like weapon would be cool, it could shoot out at enemies from medium to long range for damage then return back to the user.
Anyways, opinions, complaints, likings?

A way to preview armor before it binds to you
Techno45 says:
Whenever I play the game and get new armor and try it on, it binds to you. I may be wrong about this, but there doesn't seem to be a way to preview what the armor looks like before equipping it on. I have some armor that I don't really like but I can't get rid of it now and it's too late for me to trade it. If there were a way to look at the item you have before putting it on then it would help a bunch of people. Another thing would be to make a way to discard armor and stuff you don't want. I really hate to say this, and I don't want to make anyone mad, but how armor binds to you and you are forced to keep it is kind of frustrating when you don't want it anymore.

Character Equipment Setups Features
Shisho2k says:
Anything mentioned or in the future for an interface option to create item setups and name them? So you can just equip a set/setup of items with one click, rather than bumbling around the inventory to change stuff for a different clockwork theme.

More Wise Owlites.....AND
More Wise Owlite Equipment.
Who wouldn't love a "Wise Owlite Helm" and "Wise Owlite Coat"!!!!!!!!! and even some "Wise Owlite _____" offensive weapons.
AAAAAAAAND
Lets get some "Unwise Owlite" equipment going on. Some items that resemble the wise owlite but in a demonic type nature/color scheme rather than angelic. Or, perhaps the armors could be the "Wise Owlite" series, and offensive weapons could all be "Unwise Owlite" equip.
i'm not married to the term "unwise" others could work too. Angry Owlite? Vengeful? Wrathful Owlite? you get the idea.

Wise Owlite
I think the Owlite shields are paired with the Grey Feather equips (both in materials, defenses, and theme).
If the Winmillion has an upgrade, I hope it's something like Winbillion (or Wingazillion...lol).
Personally, I wish we could name our weapons--if we craft them. So my Magma Driver ("Magmortar") would always be named that, even if I paid CE to sell it. You get to name the item when you make it/upgrade it (so with each upgrade there's a chance to change the name). And when other players examined us, they'd see the name, and then what weapon it is underneath.

shields
we should have an options for costume shields just like helms and suits. Not that i don't think the Owlite shield is the most awesome looking shield on the game...but it sure is waaaaaay toooooo common. Would be nice to cover it up from time to time.

I really like the game so
I really like the game so far, I LOVE the alchemy you have to use to craft a new weapon. It could just use some more oomph in the weaponry.
I would like to see some guns with more WOW factor such as:
-Adding a Gatling gun to the Autogun line that looks like a mini-gun, with more rounds than the needle shot.
-An Alchemer that shoots spiraling energy bolts.
-A grenade launcher with spherical shaped grenades that have a slight delay after firing (meant for hitting multiple targets at distance).
-Crossbow type that shoots bursts of energy.
-Ammo pack upgrade that can be added on to increase fire rate or decrease reload time.
As far as the swords go, most are pretty impressive, but could use other weapons besides swords such as:
-Mace charged with fire, ice, poison, etc.
-Spear or pike of some kind.
-Whip or chain.
-Boomerang type blade with quick return. (adding some fancy spin moves could enchance the looks)
-Sword with a charged "shield" rush attack.
I guess I'm kind of going for incorporating elements from Castlevania. I loved Symphony of the Night. This post was copied from my original post.

A few suggestions :3
Hiya :D
I got a few suggestions for you:
Guns
SHOTGUN!
- Guns aren't really that good for mob control: You shoot them, they come running back with a vengeance. How about a short range (but still a bit more than a sword's range), wide spread bullet shooting gun that reloads after each round?
(PEW *click click* PEW *click click*)
Charge Attack: Bigger spread, shorter range, more overall damage
3 Round Burst:
- 2 bursts of 3 bullets (THAT DON'T MAKE YOU STAND STILL TO SHOOT), then a reload. Just a nice concept :L
(pewpewpew..... pewpewpew! *click click*)
Charge attack: 3 large bullets, more overall damage
Sword
Fast 2 hit combo sword
- There are the sealed sword and troika series, both of which have a 2 hit, "slow" combo. How about a fast "1-2" combo sword?
Charge attack: A large uppercut that allows you to land another attack afterwards (if you wish to)
Sleep inducing weapon?
- There are weapons that make you spontaneously combust, spasm, poisoned, stunned, and cursed, but there are no weapons that make you sleep (I'd like a weapon like that...... get into bed and prick my self XD)
Charge attack: A gentle sweep with increased chance of sleep, but a slight damage reduction.
And.. thats it :P
0+LOL
Hybrid suggests:
I would like to see more equipment put in so there will be more diversity in SK. :D I've heard that the 5* of a Khorovod is already in the game files, so make a quick update so you can put it in (This suggestion was probably driven by my High IAS UV on it, but still)! Since it already hits the max "bars" when you level a khorovod to 10, I would like to make ANOTHER suggestion that you put some sort of numbers in our weapons instead of several rectangles / bars (who cares) so we can know precise specs on our equipment. So yeah, that's basically about it!
