I thought the most time consuming thing would be gear. They would need a lot of time to have the gear fit on the models. However, I think this problem mostly stems from catching up with all the gear we have so far. Fitting all the older gear to the models would take a very long time.

However, after catching up and moving forward, there will still be extra time spent fitting the newer gear on the races, but I don't think it would take a ridiculous amount of time after the initial catch up.

On a side note, the dev team managed to make more than 540 head items available for viera and hrothgar. Does anyone have an estimate for how long this took?

To be absolutely fair, glasses are probably the easiest pieces of gear to adjust for new races (well maybe accessories are easier). Very minimal model tweaking and skinning. So we shouldn't use this as a benchmark for how fast they can make other adjustments.

I can imagine helmets and body gear would take longer.
