Companion Appearances

I bought the Martin Valvida companion from the crown shop because I always thought he looked cool. Once I bought him I thoughtlessly promoted him for gold to find that I hated the new way he looks. Is there any way to pick which on his appearances I want him to be or is it possible to undo the promotion? I just really can't stand the way he looks now and I love the way he used to be.

Man, I wish! Like you, I prefer Martin Valvida's original design. He just looks so much cooler as a skeletal Monquistan soldier! Not a weird primate version of Ghost Rider with what sometimes looks like a beanie on his head rather than his skull. There a lots of companions that I wish retained their original appearances, or at least had different promotional designs, but alas, they don't.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm pretty sure that there's no way to undo a promotion, and not a way to choose a companion's appearance.

Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of Milo Graytail's final promotion look, either. However, I don't see promoting them without accepting the change in appearance. Maybe send in a Support Ticket and ask if they will rollback the promotion for you? Of course, then you sacrifice the Epic Talent choices...

Sorry.

I wish they could add this feature though. Sometimes it gets stale seeing your companions dressed the same way and the only way to counter that is to change your flag colors.

Hope that the next promotion appearance is an improvement? Of course, does anyone here remember Ratbeard's old first promo hat? The small, stupid hat that looked like a Cap'n Crunch Hat? That got changed.
Now, Milo, yeah poor guy, a rat in a long, curly wig isn't very attractive. And I must say that Birgus' scrubbing brush helmet isn't all that cool - I actually liked his first promo look much better.

Why can't Milo just get a cool hat or something. I will still always like Milo for his epic accent though.

I doubt they will make another promotion for Martin Valvida

They already went out of their way to make a unique model for him and he is an amazing companion

There are other companions who really need promotions, already have models and don't have a promotion
