My guess would be that you can get that appearance either from the T2 epic quests that reward the purple quality helmets at the end (Order: 'Chasing Oathgold' in Dwarf T2, Destro: 'A Lord's Game' in Dark Elf T2) or from the Vainglorious quest chain (Order guide / Destro guide).

WR cast time... just means I'm out of the keep earlier.

We very much care about all our players playing Return of Reckoning, especially our casual players who represent the majority of us. We'll watch how the War Report change affects the Realm versus Realm experience overall, but we currently don't believe the impact of this is against the casual experience of the server.
It took me a while to find this but I'm afraid other devs and community managers have had a very different point of view toward casuals and I feel that drives the direction of diminished RP rewards and other player benefits to this day.

I have many regrets how I addressed the community in years past. It has caused me to step back from the design aspect of being on the team and focus solely on GM duties for a couple years now. My opinions several years ago are not held by the team currently, as there are several voices involved in design with varying thoughts and ideas about this topic. I have not participated in design decisions for quite a while now.

I can attest that Hazmy during his time has indeed served the greater community to the best of his ability, and even beyond at times. There is a very different team driving the server forward that do not share the fervor I expressed several years ago. They deserve better than these old bitter memories being held against them.

Thank you for your thoughts Wargrimnir and clearing the air.

Thank you for clarifying your present position on this matter wargrimnir. I realize our exchange got a little heated and I'm happy that you are more open to attracting solo players.
However, as a mostly solo player who does on occasion run in open WBs, I feel that rewards should be better for those that don't have the time or interest in joining a WB. I feel it would greatly increase the chance of keeping players that have never played WAR before.
