Asura Heavy Helmet Clipping
I second this request. I was looking forward to the “Bear Helm” so much, but the clipping bug ruined it for me. It’s even worse when your Asura has a larger than average head size.
On that topic, there are quite a few helmets in the game with similar issues. Some helmets will, as soon as you ready your weapons, show what looks a bit like “ear stumps” clipping through them. I.e. it’s not even the fully rendered ears but some weird looking accumulation of pixels. This happens e.g. on the heavy “banded” helmet and on the heavy “pit fighter” helmet.
And then of course there are the many, many helmets where the ears will simply clip through the helm. This includes new amazing looking new helms form the Bazaar of the Four Winds as well as the Hellfire Helmet which is a bloody shame. As someone who plays mostly Asura characters finding a helm that doesn’t have any graphic issues can be a real challenge.
I kept my bear helmet in the bank in the hope that maybe someday it will be fixed…
I think both Asura helmets (ear problems) as well as Charr helmets (horn and ear problems) and leg armour (tail problems) could benefit hugely from a thorough review by the graphics team in reagard to clipping issues.
