Extra Gear Slot: Face?

What I'd also like to see fixed is a cowl design doesn't make me bald. Whenever I equip one all of my hair magically disappears. It just looks....bad. I understand there are clipping issues with some hair styles, but it shouldn't be that hard to find a happy medium that doesn't involve magical baldness.

I agree 100% with the OP. Having a face slot would be perfect so I could further customize my character's appearance.

At least then it would mean more revenue for the classes that make the gear, since players would then have two slots to fill instead of one.

well they could make the face slot cosmetic only.

I'd really have no problem with the face slot being cosmetic only.

Also,I seriously doubt crafters would see a reduce in income. Free to Play games and WoW demonstrated that vanity/cosmetic additions are valued by players just as much as stat gear. Maybe even more considering that people are willing to pay money for them.

I was really expecting more people to be resistant to this topic,I'm pleased to see i was wrong.

I don't understand the resistance to some of the suggestions that add no negative and only enhance the game for people. Sure some of the features requested might not be something everyone will use, but it doesn't negatively impact them either. I think a lot of people just take certain ideas into their brain as being something they do not like the idea of and then fight as hard as they can to rain on the parade of the people who are trying to enjoy the idea.

I think its a neat fun idea, I support this!

We need some cape too! it's not fantasy if there's no cape :P

This is something that's bothered me for the LONGEST time, and it's the one and only reason I refuse to wear cowls, haha.

I agree. I think in the long run, it will only help the economy, seeing as how there would be an extra slot to fill, thus more money spent. However, in the short term (and I do mean very short, maybe like 1-2 weeks), I think there would be a bit of an upset that the gear being labeled as "face" gear would have all of their stats removed, therefore requiring people to buy new "head" gear. But really, I don't think there's anything horribly expensive in that category anyway, so...they'd get over it fairly quickly. :p

Maybe, but money is really easy to get in this game, so I doubt it would really inconvenience anyone in any sizable way.
