When can we expect a hide fail option for Miqo’te and Au Ra?

[IttyBittyShark]

Wont miqote's and Au'ra wobble and fall over alot due to loss of balance without their tails?

Is that confirmed in lore? I know that it effects balance for things like actual cats, kangaroos, and even the extinct dinosaurs. I think tails vary in their abilities. Some are for balance, some are prehensile, and some are just for swatting away insects (horses and cows do this). Unless that is confirmed I was always of the suspicion that miqo'te tails were just kind of... cosmetic.

could just wrap it around but i dont think au ra tails would be big enough to do so

Ah, you beat me to it. That's what I was gonna suggest.

I’ll try to get a photo later when I next log in showing my Miqo’te wearing the new Princess Attire dress. I’ve got the lion tail option (since yes, I DO like the tail people!) but only bushy end of it juts out of the dress like a toilet brush being jammed through a skirt! It looks awful. It’s something you literally *can’t* ignore so long as you are playing as all you see is behind your character as they run about, with their toilet brushes jammed in their dresses in mine and many others cases...

Please, consider a /hidetail option for situations like this, it’s not unreasonable, it’s not arduous, it’s necessary. Please restore the once excellent design consistencies to your game, one way or another.

If you dont want a tail anymore you can become a hyur or that race who have a right posture and perfect body: Lalafell

Hopefully never.
The tail is a defining part of a Miqo'te. Now that we have two tailed races (maybe 3 soon?), they should work harder on tailed versions of gear. Some have it, why not all?

While I'll agree that it's a defining part of a Miqo'te, there's still some gear that looks very silly without it hiding the tail. The Chocobo Suit being a prime example of this:


Not saying they should add an option that'll hide the tail permanently, but they should at least consider having it hidden on some gear.
