Guess it depends on the horns that are chosen, because I can see mine perfectly fine. Sorry you're having problems.
How are they even piercing their horns? Do they have power drills laying around? It might have been a neat touch if they gave alternate earring appearances for Au Ra and had them appear as metal bands or rings wrapped around their horns. I mean it's clear they like horn decorations in some forms due to the metal tip options during character creation. I'd rather the typical earrings not show as they seem out of place... But maybe that's just me.
The worst part is the horns pick up sounds, ie vibrations. So unless if the earrings are just wrapped around a thin spot in the horn getting earrings might just get like bursting your ear drum.
Ear rings need to dangle from the horn tips...
I think it's really sad that they didn't make it this way (and should be changed to be so, IMO).
I'm personally thankful, it'll save me thousands on glamour prisms.
I actually like how the earings (especially the CE earrings) look on my au ra. Doesn't look like earnings at all, but some kind of horn accessory
Im using the same horns as you OP, and yeah these ones specifically hide a lot.
But the baron earrings were some of the only ones you CAN see with this horn type. Not all of it, but most. Looking at your hairstyle though, I think your's is positioned exactly that would hide them, some hairs on any race do that. I can see my baron earrings just fine, and some other long types can be seen (there's actually several more long earrings in heavensward I've noticed, I think they did that intentionally with au ra in mind)
Well if ya take the horns off, you'll see your magic elezen ears!
I can see the earrings fine on my Au Ra. I think its mainly that one horn style they get hidden.
I can see mine just fine.
I like to imagine them as just horn decorations instead of earrings. Like they're wrapped with string around the horn instead of... drilled in, heh.
I think it's more like they tie them on their horns with string or wire.
The horns on face 3 hide earrings pretty well too. All I can see from the Baron Earrings are the dangly bits, which doesn't bother me too much... But what does bother me is that they're so far the only ones that are long enough to show. I hope there are more long ones in Heavensward, like someone said!
I'd love to pick my horns separately from the face for this very reason.
It's one thing keeping me from trying au RA on my main. I'd want to be able to use my favorite face and still see my favorite earrings too.
Hides on face 4 inside certain hairstyles, I saw my dread earring dangling in my hair when I was using face 4. I think it'd look a little silly to have it dangling at the ends of the horns (It looks like they made openings on some horns near the face or made horns a certain way for earrings and headgears) but I do feel like this should have a little bit of an adjustment. I use face 2 now and I can see my earrings but with some hair/horn styles it's just impossible. :(
Face 1 is the only one that doesn't have wide or forward turning horns.
I had to spin the camera around a few times trying to find an angle to see where mine hang from. Entirely stupid that three of four faces hide earrings on a brand new race.
Those were the horns I was hoping for, but that face just looks like she spent too much time in Humboldt County, California's Emerald Triangle.Quote:
Yeah, the only horn option for female Au Ra that does not hide most earrings is the one with the slim horns going backwards.

With all the others, they are either not to be seen at all or just barely with the right type of hairdo and a veeeery specific camera angle.
I can live with it, less stuff I have to glamour in the right color to fit my set, but still .-.
The base of the horns seems like a poor choice to place them at.
Face 2 does show earrings but it probably sucks with certain hairstyles because you won't see it at all.
