Will tail still clipping to all skirt?

Will tail still clipping to all skirt for 7.0?

Yep.
All the 7.0's artifact armor has tail clipping galore. (´-ι_-｀)

A clothing physics engine for 8.0 perhaps. We're due for one because the skirts are abysmal with the clipping.

More like 12.0, if it's another 5 expansions later.

Hopefully they tone down the cape fetish at least... Those things causes advanced clipping D:

And this is from someone who hardly cares about clipping, like my fav armor is the right one (Orthodox ishgardian)

We'll see but based on the artifact gear and past experience, I doubt it.
Hell, a lot of the artifact gear have sashes, belts, skirts/half-skirts, coat tails, and/or objects clipping through tails. Pictomancers with tails are going to have a dagger running through them. (◍´͈ꈊ`͈◍)

This is very hard to do so devs just ignore it. Even in BG3 tails clip through capes, lyres etc.

Only Viera ears are not allowed to clip.

Capes are the primary reason I swapped from miqo'te to viera :(
I wasn't a big fan of how they're done in the first place (being sneaky skirts)
But the fact they either just have an implied tail hole in a garment meant to be very mobile and flowy, or, gods forbid, delete literally half your character's SPINE is just a dealbreaker for me >.<

wish they would at least compromise and give us half capes on the races with tails. :T

I wish they just went the lazy way and give us a tail toggle ON/OFF when you wear a cape, because the best case scenario, if we are realistic, is that it would take them many years before even mentioning that they are working on it.

Best compromise would be variants or toggles for armor. With and without capes and or other major doodads like oversized floating shoulders.

Obviously all we can do is speculate, but I would be incredibly surprised if they ever added actual physics to skirts, as the game would be flooded with an unprecedented additional variety of upskirt behaviors.

Same I would honestly rather just not have one at this point.

Lalafell standig under Miqo'te's skirt and looking up is a thing since female Miqo'te and their Starting Set were introduced.
Can't get creepier than that.
I don't want to be mean to you because you are playing a Lala. It's just a fact.

the devs forgot about non-human ears and tails; so there's tons of clipping still & forever going to be unless people really make an effort to call out the devs

We were gonna have this, and then PS3 happened.

I could understand if we didn't have any tailed races until later, like the Aura and Hrothgar.
But seeing how Miqo'te has been in the game from the very beginning it surprises me how little effort they've put into making armor/outfits to fit tails as well without clipping.
Some clipping can't be avoided. But major ones like capes and other stuff.

I once had a lalafell following me and looking up my skirt. I asked if he was jealous because mine is bigger. He did a /horror emote and ran away.

I completely agree- and the fact that there are low level hats that have ear holes in them and some low level shirts have the back lifted for tails
It's just laziness

It does feel lazy. I can't really say it any nicer than that.
I've played ESO for many years before and they have 2 races with tails.
There are no capes in ESO, but some armor pieces have armor flaps, or how to say it.
Normally the flaps can be front, sides, back.
But on the races with tails the back flap is gone to make room for the tail.
Some armors look better with the flap but considering that it's done to reduce clipping I respect the effort they put into doing so.
So it would be nice if FFXIV could have something similar.
Where if a piece have, lets say a cape, make it a shorter cape or just remove it.
Or maybe make it into a split cape so the tail fits inbetween.

In ARR they homogenized their gear design process for all races and just let tails clip. Some robes in 1.0 had a cutout for the tail and some armor sets gave you tail armor.

I would rather them toggle the cape off than the tail off.

The whole tail issue has been a issue since ye olde gaming.

Why the issue itself has not been solved by any Gaming Company is beyond me at this point.

Should hire the dude that had to code batmans cape in Arkham Asylum.
