Feedback on 3.24 Challenge Rewards

A couple of mild critisisms.

Limitation:

Tying fun and quirky effects to visible armour-pieces is very limiting.

As someone who doesn't particulary like the appearance of the newest challenge armour, this comes as a great disappointment. I would LOVE to rain items upon my trading partners, alas, I have a multitude of better and preferable armour sets.

For future such rewards, might you consider including quirky effects as individual pieces; pieces that can be used regardless of visible armour?

Example:


The theme:

We're about to embark upon a story oozing with dark, deathly themes. Yet the Challenge reward reflects a completely different theme; I feel like I've stumbled upon a kooky character in the mountains of Final Fantasy X. Where's the sense of cohesion? Why not commit to and celebrate the theme of the league?


Thank you.
