Convinving a friend to Fantasia into a Female Roegadyn

[Vidu]

I've played female characters almost my entire MMO career, I'd like to spend some time with male characters this time around.

So, ähm... YOU are playing what YOU want, she is currently playing what she wants... but she has to be convinced to change for it to appeal to you...?

I mean, FemRoes are great and everyone should be one (no, actually not, I like being a special snowflake) but convincing a friend to change character by showing her boob-pictures seems... weird and semi-uncool? If she likes her character, leave her alone and let her enjoy the game the way she wants it...


(Little edit: Before I changed to FemRoe I played a male elezen. My best friend hated him and spend two years telling me how horrible he looked - which was insane btw, he was freaking gorgeous! - and it actually annoyed me quite a bit and made me kinda sad once in a while - really not cool being told to change your character by a friend because they'd prefer something else. I changed for the hairstyles btw.)

Since this was salty, hello, OP's friend here. /o/
I love using fantasias to race swap but always come back to Highlander just for underboob reasons and was curious about fem Roe.
I just didn't know if they had better smut gear so I was a little put off to pop a fantasia for another race change so I asked if he knew of any good Roe glams.

Okay then!
Sorry, his wording there wasnt the best!
(and as I explained I had my own experience with people pushing you around to change your character... sorry if I was coming off rude, I guess you are just not attached to your character then as a lot of us probably are - which is fine, ofc though!)


Roes actually dont get that much of a special glamour that is eh... that revealing - but having a look into the Show your Roe thread might give you a good idea how great FemRoes can look!
I consider them a tricky race - a lot of face options are simply a no-go and getting that just right can be a challenge! You'll also find that a lot of the more female clothes (like the belly-dancer set for example) arent looking that good on them because they're more build for some nice armor. If you are personally toying with that idea, I can honestly recommend Roes if you have a thing for strong women! I'm very pleased with my Roe even if it limits your options when it comes to glamour a little.
Since I prefer my character more properly dressed, I cant give you much advice on skimpy clothes though, sorry ;D
(still: the Hildibrandset has a certain appeal when worn by a Roe, I could imagine *cough*)

I think my best advice would be to make a Roe-alt and take a stroll to the market board and have some friends link you your favorite items, so you can try them on and see for yourself if you like it or not!
If only ONE piece of clothing is holding you off to go FemRoe... I'd say: Go for it! I "cant" wear my favorite coat (the PvP bard-bird one) anymore because it looked so much better on my elezen but I dont think I'll ever go back just because of this one piece of clothing.

Okay then!

No worries! I just don't want people to get the completely wrong idea.
I did check out the Roe post but a lot of the older posts didn't have pictures (mostly errors) and a lot of the newer ones seemed to be mostly men but I do like they way they look. The only problem I've had is the skin tone I've picked is either too dark or too light and I can't find a happy medium. It literally looks like I'm playing as a ghost.
Once I get that down I should be golden and thanks for the MB suggestion! c:

OhLordy, you're a godsend. Thank you for this. However, if I can deal with miqo clips I can deal with anything. ; D
