I’m a little bit annoyed here. I admit that I’m very picky when it comes to aesthetics and finding the right look is important to me once I reach level 80 on a character.

That being said, I’m a little bit alarmed to find out that the dreadnought tassets seem to be the only good pants option for charr when taking the tail into account.

I sometimes find it appalling that only such a small handful of armor pieces actually match up and properly fit the anatomy of a non-human character E.G: charr tails, asura feet/toes. Rare is the armor piece that fits properly without clipping, and rarer still is the armor piece that does all this and looks like it would be something the character’s race would wear.

On the charr body (the mesh), the worst part isn’t the floating pauldrons—those are skeleton/socket based. The worst part are the pants. Clipping is absolutely terrible on these things and it’s been like this for almost two years now (and probably even more).

Currently, I can name only 3 off the top of my head that takes the tail into account properly: Dreadnought (t3 cultural heavy), archon (t2 cultural light), and invoker’s (t1 cultural light). Of these three armor pieces, only the dreadnought armor seem to look like something a charr would wear— it’s basically armored pants with no skin showing with a flap for the upper part of the tail.

Why can’t we have more armor pieces like the dreadnought tassets? Better yet, run a major artwork pass and rework all the charr pants pieces so that they match and take into account the tail so that there’s no more clipping.

This one looks really nice (I found it in the Screenshot-Gallery). I guess, it is Townclothing, so you can not mix this armor (not sure about that).

Arah medium armour looks great on Charr, apart from the mask, use something else in the helm slot and you’re ready to go. The Arah armour not only respects the tail, it actually puts armour on it.

What’s the problem with something like this?

“Whose Kitten is this?” – “It’s a Charr baby.”
“Whose Charr is this?”- “Ted’s.”
“Who’s Ted?”- “Ted’s dead, baby. Ted’s dead.”
