Costume Request: Jester Costume

Hello Friends,

I politely ask for a Jester Outfit with functional Jingle Bells to be added to the game.
The idea with the bells would be that they act as a modified footstep sound or an addition to it.
So, they would probably be rather on the quiet end, and be more a wholesome addition to the outfit, to make it more complete/immersive(?).
I'm sure this can be done in a way, without the bells getting repetitive or annoying (probably by adding some variational bell sounds).

If there is a place for Jesters within Ashes of Creation, then I believe that adding such a costume would open addtional ways for people to roleplay their Characters, while also encouraging players to explore the role of being a Jester.
So far I am currently aware we don't seem to have a costume that would fill this niche, or do we?

The thought of seeing adventurous Jesters all across Verra brings me great joy.

I wholeheartedly second this idea.

There is no greater harmony than that between a rogue, a jester costume and, most importantly, their bells. Though costly to one's stealth, that price of bells does not compare to the artistry that this jingling attire brings to assassination. A soft melody before a swift death; a gentle lullaby for the weary and fearful before their much-deserved rest. This cheerful ringing should be allowed to grace the ears of all denizens of Vera and will surely find a place in their hearts, minds and dreams.

Through cheerful chiming we may abate the solemn sorrow of a silent struggle. Please consider bringing this joy, laughter and music to the people of Vera.

That is exactly what I want to do... Share the battlefield with a peasant in a goofy outfit. I hate dealing with these clowns at ren fairs in real life. I hate when people try to role play them, and go full cringe mode. Still, this is a far better ask than wings. I hope you get it.

"The death is coming." - they said before falling dead on the groud.

While I may not have anything to add what hasn't been already said, I'm here to support this beautiful idea.

This is a great idea!!

I already know all the Jesters are going to be cultists.

I can kind of see players RP'ing jesters in courts or taverns, but you lost me at players adventuring in jester outfits - do you mean jesters like travelling entertainers on the road or players in jester outfits actually adventuring and fighting in groups with other players?

Could your Bard not be a jester?

If you have a merchant and royalty costume in the game (granted that its from Kickstarter), why not add stuff like this for the same reason: RP Value? That's the only point you need.

Might even be perfect for the trickster class.

They confirmed Jesters long time ago.
They just chose to give a different name. Check wiki for Pyrian. You'll see what I mean.

ViBunja

Yes. We need jesters! Gotta have Shaco in AoC.

I second the rogue jester. Stealth is already meh, might as well add a few handicaps to make a gank feel better hehe!

I second this motion. I absolutely loved my Jesters skin on ESO so this would be a welcome addition to Ashes

Damokles

I am all for a Jester skin.
