[Suggestion] Additional Eye Accessory Glamour Slot

I wish to make a suggestion for an additional glamour slot: eye accessory.

Having an additional eye accessory slot would allow us to wear both a helm/head accessory and an eye accessory at the same time, without having to choose between the two.

Additionally, provided there aren't clipping issues, it would enable Vieras and Hrothgars to wear eye accessories, even though headgear won't show on them.

This would be nice! It could be a glamour only slot without stats or anything too, that would be fine!

It's been suggested in the past to allow glasses to glamour over earrings slot. It might actually help/speed up the fixes allowing the new races to wear glasses and open up more glamour options for the existing races.

I would be super okay with this. There are some nice hats like berets i would love to wear with glasses.

But that would screw over people who want earrings and glasses. Because of the spaghetti coding I don't see it happening, but if there's one slot that should go/be replaced, it's definitely belt.

Having this option would be great, though i too think it may be a lot of work to get this implemented.

How many people do you hear about after a certain earring piece for their outfit? I've only met one in about six years.

Anyone who tries to take my Behemoth earring from me can catch these hands. I take my little boy everywhere with me.

This will never happen, but it's still in my top 5 wishlist for this game.

I think this could be the best compromise, as I imagine adding another slot of data to be transferred might mean quite a lot.

Perhaps to increase choice these special items, like the glasses, are now dual category items with their first listed category and their secondary being where they can be glamoured to as well. Glasses therefore would be <glasses, accessory> (earrings, necklace, rings, bracelet).

A rule to prevent duplication of glasses is that for any items that are from the same dual (like two different glasses on two different slots) only one may appear as glamour. This means if you had glasses on your head, glasses glamoured onto your neck, ears, rings, and bracelet, that only the first item would actually apply their glamour and the rest would just turn off as they're in conflict (showing their original nature instead).

Also consider with this system you might see new groups of items that may not have a normal equip slot but work still because of it. Such as <badge, accessory> or <trophy, accessory> so obviously we don't have any badge or trophy slot but these items could be applied into the accessory slot to add to your character visual style and they'd also not conflict in duplication (no double trophy, also for those confused I mean like Witcher 3 trophy system).

Make that two. :D

It's a bit harder to look for jewellery than glamours, since you're less likely to notice them on players at a distance, but there are definitely some nice earrings out there. (And necklaces as well, although disappointingly few that don't look like they're strangling my character.)

It's also dependent on characters' hairstyles - I don't bother with earrings on my main character because you can only see them from a narrow angle behind her, but I do try to co-ordinate them on my other characters where they're more visible. The glamour dresser makes it a lot more viable than having to use prisms each time.

Also it's turned out to be quite a downside to that EXP-boost aetheryte earring. Suddenly I can't even pick between plain gold and silver earrings because it'll only accept level 1 items, and you can't get silver earrings until Lv20 or so. There's a puzzling lack of "glamour earrings" that aren't seasonal rewards or novelty mascot creatures.
