Guild Wars 2

I am sorry if this doesn’t belong here or if it’s a stupid question, but it’s bugging me for some time now and I don’t know where to ask this question if not here. If your character chose to show his heavy armor helmet, some models remove your hair and/or beard (for example Stag Hounskull, Vigil helmet, or for the town clothes the top hat remove hair and I cannot remember the beard example). I know that isn’t a major problem, but if you have a female character than they just look bald. Again, I am sorry if it is a stupid question but is this intentional?

Sadly it is. By removing hair, they save any kind of clipping through the helmet. You can logically place that anyonyone that would put on a helmet would whip up their hair so it won’t stick out from the helmet and give an opponent something to grab and pull on…. though still would be nice if they put up a generic “pulled up” hair style that matches color to go beneath helms. Sadly Syvlari are a bit more complex, but something is better than nothing.

For now though, it’s a case of not a bug, live with it. You may want to put in the suggestion forum easily implemented ideas that could give hair without clipping concerns.

The way the hair is made is as a helmet with no stats.. so when you eguip something on you head, the previous helmet, in this case the hair, is removed..

Without it being this way, the hair would be visible through most helmets as most haircuts are bigger than most helmets.

Ok, thank you. I asked only because some helmets remove and some keep the hair.
