New chess transmogs kinda bad, yea?

Like the concept and whatever is fine but does anyone else feel like some of the pieces of it are strangely low resolution?

Also depending on your race, enjoy how much it’s going to be clipping into itself

if you don’t like them, don’t use them.

pretty simple, right?

It’s fine. I’m just tired of the neck doodads like fluff that ends up looking ridiculous on fem worgen.

Would have liked to have simple variants of these armors without all the doodads on them. And have that fluff as neck pieces, like the scarfs.

They all looked high res to me.

It’s mostly the boots and the horse designs

Just looks kinda off to me anyway

Wouldn’t mind the chest and the leggings except what I thought was the Tabard actually was a part of the chest/leggings.

… And that it looked painted on.

I like the sets, among my favorites out of Trader’s

Yes. The models are kinda lacking IMO.

The chess items are some of the most imaginative and evocative designs yet added to the trading post. Not exactly to my personal taste, but the designs are strangely compelling. To me they have sort of an Oribos motif to them.

Kudos to the imagination of the team who didn’t just go for easy recolours of existing items.

I’ve never bought so many trading post items on day one as I did today.

I like them except the head and shoulders. If I could get the shoulders but it not having the massive chess piece on it I would, I’d have bought the set and a seperate shoulder for it even. Sadly not much else in the game has the checker pattern though.

No? They’re HD and pretty decent.

It looks like garbage, who would like to walk around looking like a chess figure? This is almost as bad as Jester tmog.

As I said, conceptually they’re good

Just some shining flaws stick out, it clips with itself

The horse pattern and boots look noticeably pixely to me, I dunno if it’s just when they’re on an orc or something

Rest of its fine

When I seen your thread I thought it was just a type for “chest transmog”… well I just logged on and I’m happy with this month. It just means I get to save all my tenders for next month.

Chess??
