[Difficult Items]

Want to contribute? Know of any items that are hard to match? ...Do you know of other items that match them? O:

Step right up and share your secrets.
I organized the thread about a year ago... when there were less EIs and I didn't imagine the amount of EIs we'd have... sooo I'll be reorganizing it. Anyway...


How can you help?
  • Pick a an item that's hard to match. Any non-gold shop item works.
  • Go to Tektek.
  • Base:
    • Female or Male
    • Special Avatars --> White (Fake)
    • No eyes, no mouth, no hair.
  • Find all the matching items you can and include them in one lump in one tektek. You can add any item, gold shop, cash shop, rare event, etc.
  • Post the tektek in this thread.
  • Say which hard to match item you chose.
  • I can clean up the rest of it so these instructions don't get too technical. I have some OCD tendencies, if you couldn't already tell. You'll get credit for matching the item.

Arghblargh. The Garlic Dress. Please. Someone. Do it. Also that purple in Picolitrosso's Urn. I've only found the Warm Pirate's vest to be anything close to it.

Garlic dress. Grr. The closest I've ever come is yellow spacey leggings + white stockings. It matches the bottom of the dress and is useless. XD;
This may not be a complete list, but I think a mix of these items could work for the urn:

Anurla's Hair

I thought this looked pretty cool and so I tried to make an avatar with it. It was pretty much impossible. Not only does it not really match any other item it doesn't even match well with other Anurla/Alruna's rose items.

I ended up including more items that are in the "sort of kind of almost match" category because there were few if any true matches.

The Garlic dress is easy to work with! -I usually put a coat or poncho over it to make it look more Floral then Garlic like biggrin I tek-teked this in November a month after I first got on Gaia. I posted something that looks similar to this in the avatar arenas a few days ago. I find the item "Catastrophe!" Hard to use with avatars. -I'm also thinking about joining this guild by the way..

The gold satin Hair bow goes well with the gold tennis socks for bottom and for middle the Barton Water festival Shirt. I added a form of Biancamella and Picolitrosso's Urn.

But none of those match...what you're suggesting is using it for like a themeish type avatar, not matching. Matching the garlic dress is pretty much impossible right now.

I always find Silver Sonata hat difficult to match, so I made this to show items that work.
