ETA on Character Customization?

[Allarius.5670]

They mentioned toward the end of the event that we should expect new character customization options. Did we get the POF human options before POF release? When should we expect these options for EOD and will there be options for non-human races?

Nope.

But this time we will: next Tuesday (November 30), new character customization options will be released for all races. 🙃

P.S. Hope they will include a few new body types (though it's unlikely).

I quite liked the new options. Particularly those for sylvari and asura.

Wait, what?? Was this on a live-stream, or...? (Ohmygosh, for all races? ...YESSSSS! Finally! About time non-humans get some new options: it's been years.)

...ahem. I'm so thrilled 😁 New hairstyles, finally! Looks like we get new faces for all races, too! Thank you for sharing that video.

Is it known if there will be a free option to customize already existing characters once the new options are live? Otherwise we would need a gem store kit for every character we want to change?

Pretty sure there wasn't that option in the past, so it probably won't be an option this time either (who knows, maybe we'll get one kit free? 😛 ). The gemstore item being required is probably snf intended part of the deal.

There will most likely not be a free kit, as there wasn't either when they added the new skins for POF.

 

It would be very strange especially as xmas gem whale holidays are right around the corner, so it wouldn't be a very good business decision to hand em out for free.

The female sylvari face looks way better than the male one, I'd rather have that one on a male ;u Unisex pl0x

New character customizations...? Omg can this means finally we are able to customize our undies too?

Have they clearly said the new options will be available on all new characters? Or will they be kit exclusive like new options have been in the past?

UPDATE: Patch notes do state that the new options are available at character creation. Hurray!
