Guild Wars 2

i want to be well dressed... but my hat doesn’t fit!

i returned from a long absence shortly before the big Wintersday festival... i LOVE the new wardrobe system...and the outfit slot was pretty cool... however, i was rather disapointed to discover that, while i understand the outfit covers your clothing, it overrides whatever is on your head, too. i was unable to wear the lovely winter outfit, which to me looked quite a bit like a typical "Santa" type outfit, with the decorative hat, which looked like a Santa hat... i thought they would have gone together perfectly, but alas, it was not to be.

unfortunately for me, i have a short memory and i did it to myself again recently... i purchased the Noble Count’s outfit, which looks rather dashing on a human male, and was saddened to discover that i could not pair it with a top hat. you must admit, that lovely coat-and-tails with contrasting waistcoat just begs to be finished off with a snazzy top hat.

my suggestion: allow people to change the visible helm/hat of the outfit to whatever other cosmetic hat/helm they may prefer to show, instead of the current all-or-none approach.

thank you for taking the time to read this

Agreed. This game’s dearth of suited and hatted charr is a travesty. Also, gem-studded cane weapon skin plz!

see doesn’t this look so much better?

This is whatI keep telling people.

Hats must come back!

Think of all the cmbinations we are missing for not having a separate slot for hats like in GW1.

Can’t quickly put on different head pieces like glasses, monocle, an eye patch or a mask without transmuting it every time.

Can’t use the horns, phantom’s hood, wizard hats or grenth’s hood with Halloween outfits, or combine them around.

Can’t use top hats or monocles with the count and wintersday outfit.

Can’t… well… the list is just too long… the possibilities would be endless if all the ‘cross-class’ head pieces, previously town clothes pieces and outfit head pieces were also available for a hat slot.
