Warlock class item needs improvement

The Titan has a banner on their hip, the Hunter has a hood and cape, and the Warlock has...a tiny arm band that is difficult to see. The Warlocks need something a bit flashier than a glow-in-the-dark arm band. Something that says "I went to hell and back for this" Don't get me wrong, I love the art direction in this game and many of the characters/armor sets look fantastic. However, this is one item that is sorely lacking the attention it deserves. Thoughts?

  • You have a giant coat/cape for chest armor this is the coolest looking thing out of all the classes

  • I love the Warlock bonds. The Speaker's bonds look insanely awesome, and even uncommon ones from engrams have strips of light that make them stand out and look cool.

  • I, for one, don't mind the arm bracelet - I think a bit of subtlety is needed in combination with the chest robe. If you get a bracelet that has a glow it gives a very nice effect, but maybe it would look more pronounced if it was outfitted on both arms, instead of just the one? I can't say I envy the Titans much though. In their current state I can't help but to think that it looks like they have a loin cloth attached to their armour, in case extra toilet paper would ever be needed during a mission.

  • I think it should have been a big shoulder piece, with an emblem/colors that everyone can see like the Titan/Hunters'

    The arm band aesthetic is almost non existent. What the titans and hunters have you could see from a mile away yet the armband you have to be right next to the the player. If anything it should have been a shoulder piece or a full quarter sleeve. In regards to armor, the whole coat thing i think should be shorter (like the coat at start). At least more armor in the upper torso area. I remember hearing that the armor / cloth ratio for warlocks is suppose to be 20/80, but honestly it's just the helmet and shoulder pad. I remember in a video when BUNGIE was showing off the classes, the BUNGIE affiliate mentioned that the warlock has the coolest looking armor... I have yet to see this. Think, for instance Seal of the Twin Eagle or Spirit of the Vulture, would have looked awesome as a shoulder piece, or at least right under the shoulder pad and just BIGGER. If they are to keep the Arm Bands. All I can think is that the holographic visual and light components should project over the upper arm and really GLOW, Something similar to the muzzle piece of the Stranger's Rifle.

    • Not to mention so many of them look the same. There's pretty much three models, some with light effects, some not. The only different ones are legendary. Hunters and Titans at least get intriguing shapes.

    • http://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/2b7tl0/for_all_warlocks_complaining_about_speciality_item/ This is the Reddit where a guy tries to say that the warlock looks awesome but again he shows photos where its legendary armor only. Every piece of armor except the robes look crappy for the locks. The helmets are atrocious and the everything else looks exactly like the very first armor you received at the beginning of the game. I know... I know looks are subjective. What may look good to someone else may look terrible to the other, however this isn't the only forum where many many people hate the way the Warlocks armor looks and would like more diversity. The armbands are just lame. On one arm and barely visible yet the Hunter and Titan have huge cloaks and banners to represent and the Locks have a tiny lame band that is barely visible.

    • Having played as a hunter, titan, and seeing the warlock the warlock probably has the coolest item. Though it is not instantly recognizable they can look the best. Hunters are abviously the most visible but you can easily skip over them unless you are specifically looking for their hood. As for the titan it is fairly difficult to see their litle cape item as well. My point is is that you unless you are specifically looking for a specific class's item you won't recognize it. Surely in the middle of a firefight you aren't trying to check them out and say "wow that is such a great armband/cape/hood... Where can I get that?"

    • Look at the stuff from the voice guy. Pretty cool bands, but I do agree with this. Honestly wish it was something else, but I feel it's a little to late to change it, at best they'll just add some cooler arm bands.

      • Perhaps some hard light around the helmet and arms? Maybe a Tron style light pattern around the robes. Different items will have different patterns and colors.

      • How do we vote this up or get this noticed by bungie bc there is a huge forum on reddit about this. Warlock is the least imo appealing design wise character. All the armor looks EXACTLY the same. I literally got helmet after helmet and it has been the same design from the beginning same as boot gauntlets, the only piece of armor that changes a bit is the chest. But the CLASS armband is absolutely and completely lanme you can't see it and I have gotten 3 different so far and NONE of them looked at all cool. The Hunter and Tank gets different designs in their armor plus the ability to buy capes and sashes? The Warlock gets a tiny armband that you can't see at all. It's very frustrating.
