As anyone who has ever looked at Njessi’s website knows, my Co-Tyrant is obsessed with fashion. Some people – okay, maybe just me – might even say she’s obsessed to an unhealthy degree. When 1.2 hit, I was laughing quietly to myself that while I was obsessing over my UI and Kris was trying to foist credits off on me to purchase the guild bank, Njessi was in a corner somewhere talking about sending out her idiots, cackling about CRIT and generally trying to get everyone to put in orders for new clothes. I think she wants The Snark Side to be a fashionable raiding guild.
No, really. I expect to see that as a raider requirement in the not-too-distant future.
The Snark Side seeks one tank, any class. Must be nattily dressed in the finest fashion and able to raid Fridays and Saturdays, beginning at 9:30pm EST. Please see our application if interested1.
Anyhow, it took me a while to get swept up into the whole FASHION thing, because while I enjoy poking fun at boob holsters and poop skirts, I am generally more concerned about stats than I am about how ridiculous I look.
That being said, my set bonuses are pretty much pure crap and I really hate skirts. I also really hate the way all the robes and skirts hang through the back of my speeder. It looks as though I am just hoping to catch on fire and die a horrible death2.
So I finally got around to asking Njessi about it last night and I had “samples” in the mail within the next half hour or so. When I tried them on this morning, I had to admit that I probably waited at least a week too long to muster up my interest.
Now I just have to wait for Njessi to be able to make the versions with augment slots and do something about those gloves. Too bad I have to spend tonight’s raid looking like a Nar Shaddaa show girl.
How embarrassing.


But remember as I said in my last blog entry on the Alvis site, augmented orange is now BiS for head, chest and pants.

Yeah, part of my push was that you and Yngwe were jumping on the fashion train for stats purposes. I was like… even the BOYS get it.
Even if stats weren’t involved, you know I would still be on the fashion train. Problem is, I actually like the looks of some of the gear that I have that cannot get mod slots. Not the tier gear mind you, that shit is fugly.
You and I both know if Gnoblemage could have raided in a tuxedo he would have. Btu Stats>Fashion (barely).
