I understand the restriction so casters can't wear heavy armor, but if that restriction is in place then what my class can wear should be whatever I want. Unfortunately this isn't the case. If a cowl becomes the best in slot piece for caster then all I can glamour is a cowl. I can't wear a hat or robe.

If I don't want to look like I am using a shield I should be able to.
