If I say nothing, guaranteed it won't change. But if I do, if enough players do, there IS the chance something could be done.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

In this case is a money "problem" and also if a player is really bothered by this kind of thing most likely is already using a short hairstyle, like me. The option to adapt every hairstyle is why we don't get that many, it does not only make it for each race/sex but you also had to adapt it for every headgear variation.

But yeah, SE care about this stuff, you can tell, but here perhaps the ultimate problem is players choice, certain gear doesn't mix with long hair.

Yeah, it's not a problem exclusive to just this one piece of gear. The difference however is that this is not yet released. I would imagine it's easier to change in development than it might be after it's been patched in. Making them aware of such a thing is primarily what I wanted to do.

There were a TON on complaints about how tails look in this outfit, not only was in never changed but a recolored version was used for leveling gear with the same design and issue. I doubt they will make any changes.

If it remains the same, it's no big deal. Newer gear will come, people will glamour old and new favorites regardless. But why see the potential issue and just go "oh they don't care so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"?

Glamour, concern over the artifact 3 gear isn't that important. You might not like it but there will be many people who do OP. If you don't like it then Glamour.

because of this

nobody wants that to come back so we're okay with some clipping here and there.

isn't it in the benchmark? this is an item model, that means it's already been developed. this is not some function that they talked about that hasn't been designed yet.

I have short hair and hate flared collars. I'm down for nyxing it.

The collar does seem a bit superfluous, but as long as they've designed it so that it doesn't clip canes, I can live with it.

It IS in the benchmark, and that means it HAS been finished. But it is not fully patched in yet. Would it make more sense to say "Hey, this noticeably looks bad (for the program issue of clipping, not simply glamour so let's let that line of thought die there), let's just patch it later," or say "Hey, this noticeably looks bad. See if the modeling team can work in a quick fix on this before release"?

Were this a technical issue like a skill not activating on time or spell/skill effects missing and it were pointed out, would it be okay to just say nothing?

The topic has shifted a bit from simply noting that it has the potential to clip to justifying whether it's worth pointing out something can be potentially wrong. People point out errors that slipped through the cracks before, and maybe they have or haven't been fixed. I simply saw something that may potentially look bad, even if it's minor, and spoke up on it. Maybe it was an oversight? Maybe it got the okay from QC and it's a non issue? All I can do is say "Hey this might be a thing," and I feel that's rather valid. What they do with it from there is on them.

Start looking for a new hairdo. :)
