Can we please get a Hempen Hood?

I like this idea too. Love hoods but the separate ones all have annoying dangly jewels between my eyes (please stop this) or glowing bits stuck to them, and the actual full cowls just make me look like a palette-swapped Urianger. They're a little frumpy.

I really liked the Star Velvet Hood of Casting except that it's caster-only and doesn't interact nicely with my favourite caster robes' collars at all. A simple generic hood would be great, and surely extremely easy to implement.

Yea I figured with just a plain hood it can do with just about any glamour.

Bumping again... really want some feedback on this thread. Hopefully if enough people ask for it there would be a chance for it to be implemented.

I'd love the hoods of the cowls as a separate item. They look so good but the big baggy robes does take a bit of the cool factor away.

To be honest i'd just like more of the 1.0 style gear. More simple and chunkier. Looks better with this games horrible anti aliasing.

A quick google search of "hempen cowl ffxiv" leads you to the ffxiv gamerscape page with an item labeled "Hempen Hood".

Was the item I am thinking of part of the game once in 1.0, only to be removed?

In 1.0 crafting had many sub crafts, like if you wanted to make a sword you needed to make the blade, hilt, crossguard, etc. And judging be the 99 stack number i just think the hood is one such craft-

Ah ok; I was hoping that the hood had already been in the game at one point (model and all) but was just removed before the relaunch.

going to bump the post again

Such a simple thing to add, yet would be a great addition to so many glamor sets. I would love to have this as well, especially to make a rogue-like Archer set :).

I like the idea on paper, yet....


Before I'm 100% on board, I would like hoods that don't magically make me bald first. I like my bangs.
