[2021] How to unlock the Davendale Chyper outfit?

The status of the cypher outfit is currently the same as the last statement made about it:

As mentioned there, this outfit is not available outside of Davendale at launch of mobile.

We're hoping to add this outfit to the Wardrobe in the future.

The tricky thing is that this outfit was deliberately designed to be bulky and androgynous. It's fine in the tutorial since we carefully limit what items are available to equip, but the cypher outfit doesn't fit the standard template for male and female avatars.

Because this outfit's very padded to disguise the player's appearance, if made available alongside all other customisations, it would have a lot of clipping issues.

eg back sheath items would clip through this cape, amulets would be buried in your chest, and so forth.

The cypher outfit doesn't conform to the standard male & female body shapes, so it's also not at all suitable for mix and matching, as the seams between segments don't conform to the typical pinch points.

Consequently, our art team would prefer the cypher outfit, as currently modeled, is only used in the tutorial.

To make this outfit available through the Wardrobe would therefore require a male outfit set and a female set to be modeled.

The Wardrobe version would use the cypher outfit as an inspiration, but the male & female "waveworn" outfits would inevitably be more slim and gendered in order to comply with clipping limits.

Our lead character artist estimated 1-2 weeks of an artist's time to model and rig those outfits.

Right now internally and externally our character artists are extremely busy with higher priority projects like the player avatar rework, so I can't give any timescale as to when that resource may become available.

Now that you have all the details, it would be very helpful to gauge if you would want time to be spent on male and female waveworn outfits.

This would be a future commitment rather than the reuse of assets we had originally hoped.

Does this outfit lose its appeal if more closely fitted to the form of the two genders?
