Highlighted here: an emblem choice (dragon) with color white applied to it. ]] Once your guild is ready to have its own cloak, the hard part is choosing a design. There are 64 colors in the palette to choose from for ''each'' design element of the cloak. One color is applied to the background (main color) and one for ''each'' design element. This makes for vast number of looks to try out. :Planning ahead can save a great deal of time, so it's smart to open a discussion about the theme of the guild and choose colors first. For example, a guild might settle on using only 2 colors like red and black if they are based in an "evil" aligned city, while a guild that role plays in a "good" might city pick a theme like "nature" and choose to use 4 shades of green. Settling the issue of color first often guides the choices that follow for the design elements. Of course, there is no obligation to customize all of the elements in the design if simple is appealing too. *The design elements include: :'''Emblem:''' This is the large image that appears in the center of the cloak, not unlike a logo for a brand. :'''Edge:''' This is the design element that effects what it implies, the outer edge of the cloak. This applies a pattern on the outer portion and the options range from solid lines to intricate swirls that will only show along the edge. :'''Pattern:''' This has an effect on a large area of the cloak, depending on the type you choose. These range from color blocks that look like diamonds to intricate swirls that cover broader areas, like the top and bottom of the cloak. But wait! There's more! The bottom edge of the cloak can be flat or come to two points. If you like planning ahead, eq2gallery.com, has a very nice [[http://eq2gallery.com/cloak/index.php| virtual cloak designer]] that accurately emulates the in-game Guild Cloak Designer. ====Design Elements by Guild Level==== [[File:Guild_Cloak_Trim_Options.jpg|thumb|The trim options for guild cloaks (shown in white). ]] This process begins by customizing the background (or base color) of the cloak. '''Emblem''' [[Image:cloakimages.gif|thumb|Cloak emblem options]] *At level 15 guilds can choose an emblem (seen right). *The unlock cost of this customization option is {{Coin|5||||}} *Emblems consist of over three dozen symbols such as dragons, a spiderweb, swords, and more. *A guild can customize their cloak when they choose the color of the emblem. '''Edge''' *At level 30, a guild can choose to customize the edge design of the cloak. *The unlock cost of this customization option is {{Coin|20||||}}. *There are about a dozen edge designs like: thick lines, thin lines, dots, squiggles, etc. *A guild can use the same color as the emblem or choose a new edge color. '''Pattern''' *Level 60 guilds can customize the pattern of the cloak. *The unlock cost of this customization option is {{Coin|50||||}}. *Like the emblem and the edge, a guild can customize the color of the pattern design element. The guild can match the emblem or the edge elements or choose a different color.
