They were ment to be event off and then made craftable at anytime. Though I like Pojo's idea.. and who says it has to be permenant? They could have it setup just like God given items, you trade a piece of gear in and then it comes out looking like your kingdom set. Though if you drop it or trade it, it takes it's original form again. That would also keep it kingdom locked.
I like the God-items idea, but I'm not too fond of events for them.
Few days late, but I have a full time job now. Usually will be on in the mornings and late nights (midnight on up).
I'll post them as I finish them. Comments appreciated, cause I know I'm not perfect :P
Love the gold shield..it's sexah.
*Edit*
Fixed the shield by rounding it a bit more as suggested before. I didnt even realize how goofy it looked until just a moment ago. You should agree it looks better than it was
