More Viera heel options?

Final fantasy XII has been my all time favourite and since witnessing the viera I instantly became obsessed. I joined FFXIV the minute I heard about them becoming a playable race. I saw they have 'human feet' which I don't mind that much?

Anyway, long story short, I never take off my Viera heels as I am trying to stick with the 'Ivalician viera appearance' as much as I am able, always keeping my character's hair white, eyes red and sticking to my Claws Of The Beast as well as having Eryut in my character's surname so I can represent 12.

I do not think I'm the only one who would like to request this and would be for the idea, but I would love another exclusive viera themed shoes so that the outfits can have more of a variety. For example, shoes just like the default but shorter as opposed to thigh-high. Implementing something this small can make such a difference and broaden the variety of possible outfits. The image below is an ideal design of the type of heel that would be amazing... It would look great with trousers, while as we know the thigh-high shoes tend to cut off the design.

Edit: I understand this post will not appeal to everyone but I am not asking the developers to work overtime and come up with 10 different shoes just for the viera. They can just grab the original default ones, a copy and paste job if you will, shorten them down from thigh-high and neaten them up and that's it. It's just so me and other viera's are able to wear trousers and still wear the heels. It is not going to impact the game negatively if the viera have two exclusive heels. Also, I am not suggesting in any way, shape or form that heels in general should be viera only so I'm not sure where the whole 'other races exist too' comes into play as if it's a valid point within the debate. Overall, while there should be more heels within the game, that is not the prime topic of this discussion.

Exclusive ?
Nah.

I'm positive they will make more heels but not things that are exclusive to one race and only one gender. You'll get a bunch of new glam in Endwalker so as Yoshi says "Please look forward to it"

I want more heels, I think that heels are cool.
I was also a bit disappointed with their feet alto I get it too I mean look at the helmet situation.

I don't see the point exactly in them being exclusive considering that they do have human feet now in FFXIV.
But I'd like more '' combat heels '' for a lack of a better term, basically like in your example where there's claws on them and the heel is more spikey.
A bit more beastial and stylized.

Hello.
While I understand this thread does not appeal to everyone, especially those who are not a viera main, with all due respect other races would look incredibly out of place wearing viera-themed shoes. So, yes.. Exclusive.

This game has a problem with race/class/genderlocking. Hard disagree on exclusivity.

Oh, don't misunderstand.
This boy is a viera main once male viera come out.
Regardless, I love combat boots, stilletos, and digitigrade.
But it shouldn't be advocated to restrict such high value items to viera just because well ... viera.
Looking out of place ? Mmmm.
Some people like to whisper me that my male elezen with 2b boots is disgustang. Others love it. I mean. Imagine exclusive 2b to female hyur. Oof.

while I understand the desire to have things for you alone, you have those as much as anyone... the starter set.

if you have noticed, nothing past that is really exclusive. now, you cannot wear hats, and few hairstyles, and having those open for viera is a reasonable request. an exclusive set of heels? hmmm, I cannot agree there unless they do for all races, which I serious doubt that they would.

As previously stated, it would be really out of place to witness a Lalafel or any race other than viera wearing rabbit-themed heels that were previously seen in XII.

With some of the posts on this forum, where they are asking for more heels in general, I wholeheartedly agree with.. But can we please keep the conversation on the viera-themed heels as opposed to just heels in general. Other races have the luxury of having a variety of hairstyle and the ability to wear a lot of hats, I do not think my request is unreasonable nor groundbreaking as its a matter of a copy/paste of the default viera shoes and just cropping them down.

Yes, I do have the starter set heels but my point is my choice of outfits are incredibly limited which is why I was requesting the smaller shoes version. I am unable to pair my starter set with any trousers as they end up getting cropped into shorts thus it has limited my wardrobe. Furthermore, this is not a matter of so I can have an item no other race can have; this is a matter of viera having viera shoes.

Never put a 6 foot-plus girl into heels. Fashion 101.

I agree, all races in general should get more heeled options.
But we are discussing viera, their lore, 12 and people like me who are playing 14 and would like to remain the appearance of an ivalician viera, as the standard sandals restrict and crop any trousers we would like to wear. I read somewhere (Cant seem to find the article at the moment) that Yoshi-P even stated that Viera's heels are quite a big part in the race, what with 12's Viera having digitigrade feet and all. Before people say it, I just want to say I am fully aware that 12 and 14 are completely different games bar the few cameo's in later content, I would still appreciate if we could have this one other option so we can remain the 'Viera asthetic'

this is coward's talk.

budget limitations, please don't look forward to it.

My main character is a Midlander male and I'm not that bothered about glamours or playing dress up. But I do have a couple of female alts and on the rare occasion I have looked to get nice outfits for them, I haven't really found any nice high heels. They mostly seem to be that curly toe look that I personally don't like.

The entire Viera race of FFXII would beg to differ.

NGL, at first I read it as "MALE Viera heel options" and said "HELL YES!"

I'm still saying hell yes, but no on the exclusivity. We have 2B boots for other heel options but having more (non-race-or-gender-locked) options would be pretty good.

...especially since the 2B boots have a dirt texture on them that drives me crazy when taking screenshots. Having more heels of varying heights and styles would be very fun, glamour-wise.

Yes, but what's your opinion on Viera having a second pair of heels that are shorter like in the image so we can wear trousers? The original default one's are amazing and I love them but they crop any trousers I try on

We will not see more Viera heels like those because the Viera body is different from those in XII. Those heels are designed for inhuman feet, and we can see that the Fran heels we get in the Viera racial set are just themed at best.

If you could read my previous comments to other people I'd appreciate it :) It's majoritively a matter of a 'keeping a FF12 viera" appearance while also having the luxury of being able to wear trousers as the current standard set override them. Perhaps I didn't explain my original post well or it was my use of wording, I'm sorry. I don't want to come across like a "HEELS ARE FOR THE VIERA ONLY. EVERY OTHER RACE ARENT ENTITLED TO IT" - because I agree, the game as a whole should have more of a variety of shoes.. I'm just asking basically for the standard viera heels but shortened.

OOh I'd love this. TBH if they added just 2 models it would fill a lot of gaps. One like a "shoe" not a boot, like the OP's example pictures, and other like a different type of knee-length boot.

Long, knee-length and ankle shoes are the three fixed lengths of shoes in this game, so that would cover all possible combinations.

It might just be as simple as using cut-down versions of the existing model as knee and ankle-length.

In the meantime, the Warg DPS shoes from the Grand Cosmos have a similar style (though they're shoes rather than sandals), the Bonewicca casting/striking greaves are knee-length clawed heels and there are a few other things that give you the beast-claws OR the high heels, but not both.

I appreciate the suggestion :) Those do sound like good substitutes. I'm still going to hold out that one day they'll implement this small change that can make a big difference.. Even if they made these a mogstation pair of shoes, I would pay for them.
