Resistance shoulderpiece costume missing.

I created a character and added Resistance shoulderpads. They worked fine until trying to reedit my character at the tailor. It forces the shoulderpads off of the character and they are no longer on the list of available options. Whats the deal here?

If it matters, I do not have Going Rogue.

I was thinking, and I realized that I made the character during the GR free weekend. I bet that has something to do with it. This is still a bug, nonetheless.

Not really a bug.. they just didn't write a script to automatically remove those going rogue costume pieces from you after the free trial expired. Something that they either have overlooked or a marketing ploy to give those costume pieces and get you to love them as another reason to buy going rogue later so you can use them on other characters.

Nope, not a bug, that's WAI.

These costume parts are part of Going Rogue. If you don't have Going Rogue, you don't get the parts. They enabled your access to them during the Reactivation Weekend but the weekend is over. As long as you don't try to edit the costume slot that has the shoulder pads, you can keep them on that slot. The only way you will lose them is if you edit that slot and finalize the transaction. I know players that have characters with the Malaise pants that were removed in ... Issue 2 or 3 I think. They use their other 4 slots for costumes they edit but keep the slot with those pants unedited so that they can keep them.

It's the same situation as if you had created the character in Praetoria, you wouldn't be able to access that character until you purchased GR. The same as if you had created a Hero or Villain using one of the 4 new powersets. You wouldn't have access to that character until you purchased GR.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

I miss my wings with magic bolero.... wasn't thinking when I edited the costume, and sadness ensued.

?
The magic bolero is from the magic boosterpack iirc, when did you get access to it and have it removed?

I thnk hes refering to the brief period of time when you can have both wings and magic balero. Now its either one or the other.
