Adding to that, the resolution of the banners is awfully low, to fit them all on one texture sheet. Someone could try using a high-res texture (4096x4096) for all the banners. But then you also have to remake all the banners in a higher resolution, create a high-res banner template, and make sure the code reads the positioning of the banners correctly.
Heraldic Trans:
I don't think its the banners themselves, it's something about the armors. H trans is clearly of much higher quality than the h-mail.

Its the same banner at the same resolution. The only difference is that on the heraldic trans there is slightly more extra texture added from the base diffuse alpha overlay, and more importantly, its scaled smaller. Smaller scaling means less stretching and results in a higher resolution. If you make the heraldic part of the armor really small the resolution is sufficient, stretching it across a larger area makes it look low quality, but that is besides the point.
