More Face Mask + Cowl Designs please!

Just recently I came across an NPC during the MSQ on an alt; a dead one at that, outside the waking sands that had a Full mask + Cowl combination.

There is only a single Face Mask + Cowl combo equipment in this game that is wearable by players and it has a dismal drop rate and the color combination is a complete eye sore. It also cannot be equipped by every class. For those wondering; It's the Seer's Cowl that drops from Cutter's Cry Chimera.

Could we get more Face Mask/Half Face Mask + Cowl equipment that can be equipped by all classes that is also dyeable as a glamour? Could have a white one that can be dyed all a single color, or a white robe that only the mask can be dyed on or vice versa for a black robe that only has the mask dyeable.

Heck throw in a Paragons Cowl and make everyone Ascians.

It would allow better mix and match opportunities.

C'mon SE. Make me a happy tank with a cool face mask + cowl!

You also got the masks from the expert dungeons, but those are healer and caster only. I'd like to be able to get or make masks that the beast tribes wear.

I'm not referring to just the masks though. I'm talking about Cowls/Robes that have a hood over your head with a mask added in. Sort of like the Darklight cowls with a mask added over the face.

i wouldn't mind it if it came with a /visor option to hide the mask i guess. What I really would like is more hood options as head gear. I'd love to have a hood and some armor on.

Oh my yes! I can't believe I missed that!

Sniper cloak for BRD/MCH please. Allow the hood to /visor

This thread is for a glamour for all classes to wear. D:

Ah, in that case, how about the cloak seen in the opening? The one the WoL wore as he fled Ul'dah. Treat it as a neck option so we can wear it over the rest of our gear.

I feel like this is one thing Star Wars does exceedingly well. There's always a Sith running around with an amazing hooded robe with mask.

Sadly, that particular npc was actually from the original version of FFXIV (1.0) where he had the exact same costume, so I assume it was specially made for that npc (his name was Percivans in case you were wondering). Unfortunately, cowls specifically are designed to replace the head slot - specifically you cannot equip anything into the head slot while a cowl is equipped, which is probably for clipping reasons - too much headgear would clip badly through it and just look stupid.

Of course things like headbands and facemasks would work, but as that would require those kinds of items to be separated from other types of headgear, I don't see SE doing something like this to be honest I'm afraid.

I'd really like to see more headpieces make use of the /visor command, and/or the ability to wear monocles, glasses, pince-nez pieces, and even masks and scarves as aesthetic pieces, worn "under" hats and cowls and hoods and the like.

Honestly I kinda wish that cowls would be changed to allow headgear to be equip-able, and be given a command similar to /visor that allows to to put the hood on or take it down. Then just have it so that when you /hood it simply hides the headgear types that it would clip badly with.

Despite the comment below this saying this thread is for all classes, I'd actually love this.

But there is already an item that does this.. The Seer's Cowl.. It literally is both a cowl and a mask together. I'm not saying make it so we can equip both head gear and cowls with hoods. I'm saying have them already together as the Seer's Cowl is.

One thing that has been annoying me is Wymond's glasses. We have all these different pairs of glasses where the frames are abled to be dyed but the only pair of glasses that I've seen in game that has colored lenses is the pince-nez pair from darkhold. They went and added all that Scion gear to the game why is it so hard for them to add Wymond's glasses so everyone can use it as well? ><

I don't see how this would work though with the bigger hats.. it'd look kind of silly.

We have an option that causes our weapons (and shield) to magically disappear upon being sheathed.

I'd like more hood+mask type of items.

I'd also like hoods (either these masked ones or not) that can be worn on their own in the head slot, and not be simply part of a robe (and correspondingly, more robes that don't have the hood attached but could be combined with these separate ones when someone wants a hooded robe). It would allow better mix and match opportunities.

I have just the one.

I agree with just hoods having masks on them as a head gear instead of making it a full robe :>

Love being able to glamour any item on any class there.

I'm personally not a fan of hoods, but I would love to see more masks, especially for all classes! Maybe in 3.4 in time for All Saint's Wake? =D

Updated with more of what users want! :>

Added what the Seer's Cowl looks like in game on my alt since I finally got it.

Image not working for me.

Could this get looked in to? I know I made this thread a month ago but I'm really dying for more face mask + cowl combos here. D:

The mage gear from Immortal Flames hunts is a hood with a mask. It's also it's own seperate piece of headgear.

The problem with that is that only those in the Immortal Flames can wear it. You can't just be in the flames then switch to another Grand Company and expect to be able to wear it still because it's not possible. Also it's not really a cowl with a mask. It's just a shawl that covers the upper face with a decorative piece of metal.

My request here is simply cowls with masks that have absolutely no limitations or restrictions.
