    I'm a tank. Why am I wearing a crown? (i.e. Petty cosmetic complaints!)

    This is a minor complaint, obviously. But dammit, I don't want to wear a crown! I want to wear a helmet that covers my entire head! You know, so it looks like I'm a tank!

    I get it, the whole "Paladins wear circlets in FFXI!" thing. Yeah, great. But it makes no sense! That thing won't protect my head! Of course, the stats say this:



    is better than this at protecting my head:



    In the end it really doesn't matter, per se, in terms of what must be fixed and changed, but I thought I'd share my petty complaints either way!

    I'd say go get DL but you're already in AF2. Don't worry though, you'll be able to put that trashcan armor back on once they add vanity slots. I personally can't stand it, you can't even move your neck.

    It's called Video Game Logic. That is why the less armor females have for example, the more protected they are lol

    I think the crown looks cooler. I hate covering up my whole face. What's the point of creating a character if I wont be able to see him? Thats just me.

    I can't wait to get my Valor Coronet so I can look like a princess. A pretty, pretty meat shield princess.

    This is why, and I don't care how much it may annoy someone who wants to yell "you're not in full DL stupid noob die I hate you scum" or some other positive reinforcement, I will never ever wear that godawful heavy darklight armor. The flanchard I can deal with, even though it gives me fat thighs. But hide my face and look like a Halloween decoration? Oh, hell no.

    That's great and all, but if YOU want YOUR character to have their face exposed, you can choose to not display a helmet! I want me some behemoth helm!

    I understand you but personally Im in the opposite camp

    A plain face is boring imo. With awesome looking headpieces you look more intimidating, powerful, mystical, villanous etc.

    Just imagine these guys running around with their faces showing:



    If I could get either of these armors I would go way out trying to obtain them. It may be because I like roleplaying, and evil at that. But even roleplaying a good character I feel showing your face just destroys the mystery of your character. Take a WoW Paladin for example:

    For me... showing your plain old boring face just diminnishes the epic feel of your character.
