What's this strange icon?

Stopped by the tailor and saw this:



See that thingy under my first three costumes? Does anyone have a clue what it is? I've never seen it before... it had no apparent effect, and disappeared when I closed and re-opened the tailor window.

Yeah, that's what it is. It's basically an indicator that your Defense has been buffed, and usually orbits your character. Nothing to worry about.

Great costumes, by the way.

It means there are costume pieces on those toons that are 'missing' or locked in the Tailor. Either because the piece was removed or moved in the selection list. Or you dropped down to Premium and can't access those pieces anymore (but you can still wear what you have, but if you go to the Tailor, you might lose access to them).

ok its most likely the "moved in the selection list" cuz i have noticed that on some of my saved costumes.

It doesn't work that way. Once you get access to a costume part, the technology doesn't exist to take it back. You can drop to Premium and still make new costumes using the Celestial Armor if you bought it while VIP.

Ah, thanks for that correction. Never tested it myself.

Except for things like the Defense set, which is available for free to VIPs but if you're a Preemie and don't buy the Defense set when your VIP runs out, you can still keep that costume but can't use it on anything else. And if you change that costume, you lose access to those pieces, just like pieces that have been removed from the creator. Just like powersets.

Celestial, Ascension - those are "bought" sets, not "VIP" sets like Defense. Even though you must be VIP to acquire them.

Those are the costumes you must make better.
