Cowls should not be displayed if you have hide headgear option on

I think it would be cool to have the cowl off if you don't have the display head gear option on. Anyone agree? This goes for other gear where you cannot equip gear to head.

Okay editing my first post but the reason why my girlfriend asked this was because her dad was playing and he couldn't do the level 5 quest to turn in armor because he only had a cowl. I know, easily fixed by putting on a headpiece, BUT the cowl should at least count as a headpiece as well as body for the level 5 gear quest?

I'd like the option to put on the hoodie the white mage robes have. I'm still surprised we can't, the hood looks good.

While this is a nice option for those that are worried about it, I'd much rather have the team creating content as opposed to redesigning the cowl model just for this option (which, to be completely honest, I care nothing about). If I had to choose between a new content, a free cheeseburger and this, this would be last.

Not everyone agrees.

I hate cowls. The problem is that existing cowls are mode as complete objects, same issue with tincan armour and /visor command. To fix it they would need to remake them and that's taking time form other stuff. I think the dev team no they are not popular so we'll see less or even possibly no more of them in the future.

Along with the reasons they've already given for not implementing something like this, I think another issue they're concerned with is the inevitable request to be able to equip something to your head if your cowl is down.

I prefer new content too...lol made this thread because my gf asked me to :P although I do agree. On top of that though...the team that makes instances is not the same as the gear team. So it really wouldn't take much time.

Content isn't just new instances...it is new armor design also....I'd much rather that team was creating something new and cool as opposed to worrying about cowls. Besides, at this point in time, aren't cowls temporary? I mean, don't they stop at ilvl70? You can't glamour them since they occupy two gear slots....And if the hood bothered someone, why glamour it, even if you could?

I understand your point and that you wanted to voice it to developers. I just merely stated my view so that the team knew that not everyone is on that page. No offense, no insult and sorry if I came across that way.

Yeah, it's annoying. They should count the cannot equip... items as more than one for ilevel purposes.

They do as far as I know. The problem for him is that the quest wants you fully equipped, but doesnt count cowl as head and body.

That's true, but in this case they really did respond saying;

Future gear will be considered with multiple options for cowls.

The WHM AF's current model WILL NOT be revised.

Oh I meant that I hate it when people do "/thread" to begin with. I find it so arrogant.

Yeah I wish those people would just /end. Lol anyways forgot the whole aesthetics thing. Being able to turn in the level 5 quest is more important IMO.

I am more than certain they have a "priority list" when it comes to pumping out contents. You sound like we're not gonna get anything new simply because they're redesigning how cowl works. They take their time, they don't have to work on it immediately. But it should be part of their to-do list at the very least (if they like the idea).
