Even then, in this case the clipping is merely the tiny doodad on the back.

It's funny cause you can remove clipping on capes by just deleting the geometry the tail would be in the way of. And having the capes on tail races be given a W shape instead of a U shape. They make ear pockets for miqo'te helms but can't have a slit in the cape for miqote capes? Ah well... the race is more favored than Viera area at least. I'm still waiting on helms and hats. An entire slot wasted for glamour 90% of the time a helm drops for me.

Honestly it is a bit of a crime the miqo'te fluffy tail didn't get a proper 3D model with the character overhaul either. It's still just two 2D textures cross sectioned into each other to give the illusion of a 3D object. This is stuff that the N64 may have called "advanced" at one point in time back in the 90's.

They don't do that anymore actually. Hats have been amputating miqo'te ears for years now.

I posted this as a bug, hopefully it is.

Welp there goes my desire to farm the full set of that.

Tailed races shouldn't be prevented from wearing capes, either. "Just remove the capes" is the same logic that led to invisible hats on viera. There should be a gap in the cape for the tail, or the tail should be under the cape. Having an option to change our tail position to wrap it around our waists saiyan style would also be fun.

So many things that could've been done, but instead, we have the worst two choices: clipping (through the cape), and clipping (off the tail).

The gear in the original post is a real head scratcher, too. They only would've needed to shorten that silver part in the middle of the two white coattail-looking-things to make a perfect opening for a tail. Really, it almost looks like the item was originally designed for tails, and the extended silver part with the light is just there to cover the tail gap for tailless races. I'd like to know the thought process behind this.

I second this. I'm surprised it isn't mentioned more often.

And would it have been so much effort to add tail armor? Almost half the playable races have tails so having some tron looking whip as tail would have worked here. Like Charr get in gw2 https://imgur.com/a/major-tail-changes-mMKRcYu

While as Lalafell im not affected, i still feel with you.
They added a lot of tailed races so the extra work that is needed was something they had to anticipate :(

Lala of all things actually got to keep their ears on that armors helmet >.<

i wish there was an option to hide miqo'te/au ra tails, i dont like tanking but it seems i got a reason to level one now

If i wanted my aura without a tail i would play a a darn aura guys! I hope there is a fix for this soon because removing our tails is no different than removing an arm or a leg, it's unacceptable.

But we have tails too? Also unlike the female. The males tail wags when you sit
