Zealot - bad trousers conspiracy

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Gameplay Feedback

We had so many rage filled discussions recently that it’s time for something less serious. Why are so many zealot trousers cosmetics so bad? So many feel like lazy copies of each other?

Does Fatshark hate zealot? (that part is a joke).

I was really hoping for some nice mix of plate / chain armour. There are some options, but they just feel wrong. Chainmail patch stuck on modern military cargos, and plate which imitates leather. I would also like some renaissance inspired options, something landsknecht style too.

Have I missed anything?

It gets worse if you try to use For The Drip. It turns out there aren’t a lot of heavy armor cosmetics available, which is a shame, because I wanted to make my Zealot a walking tank. The most you really get is shirts - nothing for the arms.

Exactly zealot misses 2 things for me atm: an actual “crude” unpowered greatsword and some armour / gear to match the low tech fantasy.

Strong 1950s scout vibes.

Pretty much all the pants of every class are just the same 3-4 base and varying add-on accessories layered on top then recolored/retextured.

Zealot jorts are at least unique.

one of zealot’s best pants is in store, neutral for mix and match and they don’t really clip with anything. big inquisition sheet-kickers

I will agree that slashed dress pantaloons are the best period though, funny clown pants with curly shoes.

Yeah, I forgot to get those. I don’t think I was actually interested in the rest of that set.

To be honest, I really like these pants! The first thought that popped into my mind when I saw this one: Landsknecht.

15

yes, one of the best pants. i have separate cosmetics for every build so i know right away what i’m picking, and these are my blazing piety zealots, that’s what i play mostly.

One of the very best pants, if not the, is the launch 800 2-piece that’s NEVER coming back.

I’m still mad at myself for not grabbing em all. I hate all the baggy ones, makes me look like I’ve shat myself.

P.S.:

Found a recolor, but not a fan of the red skins.
