Default Privateer tailor rewards

Is it that I'm missing some and that is why I find the tailor rewards somewhat lacking, or are they in fact just so? My free trader is the same level as my privateer and so far she has gotten: coat, sash, upgraded coat, monocle. The privateer on the other hand, as far as I can tell, has gotten a coat, at lvl 5. The upgraded coat for the lvl 15 quest is the exact same, at least on female characters.

There are 3 Huntsmen Jackets. The last one I've gotten is "Fancy," which looks good. I've also gotten a belt with a pistol in it. Nice tailor rewards....

The lv10 clothing reward is a rather nifty eyepatch. The "Patriote" or something i seem to remember it being called

Yeah I was rather disgusted with the Privateer rewards... Ive only liked the FT so far, the sash with the coin pouches was a nice touch... but a monocle? Come on... If I want to look like Mr Moneybags Ill go play Monopoly the RPG... >.> Glasses were more common back then than monocles ever were... why couldnt we get those?

I think the devs were just running out of ideas, or were getting tired when they got to the class rewards. >.<

So far my privateer has gotten:

05: Huntsman Jacket
10: Patriot Eyepatch (cool engraved steel)
15: Worn Huntsman Jacket
20: Nothing
25: Swashbuckler Hat w/gold embroidery
30: Fancy Huntsman Jacket w/medals

I love the eyepatch...The huntsman coats I'd like alot more if they were open more and didnt hide the shirt underneath. The Swash hat and Fancy Jackets were disappointing since the gold trim on them arent responsive to color changes, and the color is terrible. But the design is nice.

This needs some serious work. Not only are these rewards dubious because you are required to like them (whats the point of getting a reward and lvling if you don't use them) they are not enough and they are not that distinct. This needs work.

Aye, this needs major work. The tailor rewards or lack thereof, and the dubious, despicable nature of the rewards you do get, are going to be the undoing of Pirates of the Burning Sea. This needs considerable work. Does not FLS realize the tailor rewards are the entire purpose of folks playing the game?!? This needs some unabashed work. We suffer through mindless sea battles and inane swashbuckling just to see what garment or accessory awaits us on the next fifth level (once we get past the pointless quest they throw at you as a last nuisance obstacle). This, good sirs, needs work!

This needs so much work they need to pull all developers, artists, forum mods, accounting temps, and sound engineers off all other aspects of the game to get tailor rewards right.

Their job won't be done until every tailor reward is perfect and liked by every single player of the game.

This really, really needs work.

At least explain what in the hells "Shoes" did for me at level 5.

*flees, maniacal laugh trailing*

The level 25 reward intrigues me; the only level 25 quest I noticed was visiting some guy in my nation's capital. He was drinking and just said hello and told me to go home. I figure someone didn't tell me where to go properly...

The point of that was only to have you formally introduced to the privateer, Captain Blood, from whom you'll be receiving your career missions (at 30, 35, 40, etc.).
