World map avatar (Warriors of the north)

[Recruit]

Playing as Northern raiders it was a bit dissapointing to see the avatar change to the regular mercenary after reaching 1050 reknown from the former playthroughs.

It may seem like a minor detail, but it's the details that shape the soul of a game. Playthroughs through different origins would feel even more fun if your world map avatar (In this case Barbarian) would change to a Reaver after reaching 1050 reknown and Champion at invincible.

It's pretty much logical, at this point you're no longer a bunch of raiders/cultists/poachers/peasants, now people know you as a mercenary band

It does seem quite boring to look like an average mercenary as a company that consists of mostly barbarians, still raiding caravans whenever oppertunity presents itself, and only using barbarian armour.

But yes it does make sense, especially for peasants. But it doesn't mean we shouldn't have more avatar variety with different origins.

Poacher avatar can for example upgrade to a marksman after 1050R, and to master archer when invincible.

Come to think of it, does Lone Wolf also change to the regular avatar once you get past 1050R? seems like quite a downgrade if that's case.

I'm sure it does.

Agree with you, havent reached to that, but if no matter what you choose, you end up with Mercenary avatar sounds awful.

Hopefully will be changed or modded.

Going from code, Lone Wolf is set to just stay the same. The others have an initial avatar selected, but don't seem to have updated ones. (So they all turn into the default higher level avatars with enough renown)
