Suggestion - Premium Kits for Anni

    Ever since Mojang decided to enforce the new EULA by updating commercial usage guidelines, many minecraft servers have been coming up with unique ideas to make money and gather donations.

    I won't name them here, but there are several servers out there that allow you to donate to get special classes for their gamemodes or worlds that only add cosmetic changes to "free" classes. Apparently this is allowed by the EULA, as long as it's only cosmetic. So here's what I suggest for Shotbow.

    Start selling Premium (cosmetic) classes

    Requirements:
    - You would first be required to unlock the free equivalent of the class (won't appear in shop until you do)
    - Each class will cost $10 in the Shotbow shop (or whatever Shotbow decides)

    Some names I've come up with for the Premium classes:

    WARRIOR = RANGER
    ACROBAT = CLOWN
    ASSASSIN = HITMAN
    SPY = OPERATIVE
    BUILDER = ARTISAN
    SNIPER = MARKSMAN
    SCORPIO = ANTARES
    SCOUT = RECON
    ENGINEER = BOMBER
    PYRO = INFERNO
    FARMER = RANCHER
    TINKERER = TECHIE
    IMMOBILIZER = PARALYZER
    BERSERKER = MANIAC
    ICEMAN = FROSTY
    SPIDER = ARACHNID
    WIZARD = SORCERER
    MERCENARY = CONTRACTOR
    LUMBERJACK = FELLER
    DEFENDER = GUARDIAN
    VAMPIRE = GHOUL
    WARRIOR = FIGHTER
    CIVILIAN = NITWIT
    NINJA = SHINOBI (I know, hasn't been added to anni, but hoping! check my sig)

    The obvious cosmetic changes would be sounds and particles, not just for kills.
    Not sure if it's doable in Anni, but custom skinned leather helmets and items would make the classes attractive IMO
    Imagine Acros running around with a huge team colored wig :)
    I want this to be a discussion thread. Post your ideas!

    The most you could add is some particles and changing a piece or two of leather armour to a different shade, seems a little under whelming considering there is already /swag

    True, but that's the issue with the current EULA. It limits things to cosmetics.

    I bet people will still buy these classes if they were available, even if it's just for the name.
    There should be more you can do with armor, such as custom textures. Many servers have custom texutured armor and items. Even if it required Mcpatcher (Optifine), it'd still be worth it IMO.
    I'd get Clown, Recon, and Maniac just for the name.

    So here's what I would like to see if this gets implemented.

    - Class specific particles for kill and skill
    - Class specific kill sounds
    - Custom textured leather helmet
    - Custom textured class items
    - Custom kill messages
