If this game truly listens to it's comunity PLEASE make Viera able to wear head gear!

It can happen, but it is extremely hard to prove thus the chances of it happening are extremely low. Sure has some risk, but the risk is minimal. Just offering some info, what they do with the info is on them.

Doing anything illegal has a low chance of you getting caught, doesn't mean you should risk years worth of progress; you shouldn't be creating a trap for people who want to use hats/helmets on Viera. I'm surprised you're even trying to justify it.

If someone wants to take that risk that is in them. I am not trying to justify anything. I am just providing an option stating facts that the chances of action being taken are fairly low.

Granted using the word illegal loosely here since the ToS is honestly more of a cya thing for SE but if someone wants to do something as illegal as breaking the ToS of a video game I personally would not lose much sleep over it. That us a choice they made and who am I to try and change their mind. I assume they are capable of making their own choices and understanding the inherent risks said choices come with.

End of the day this is what this comes down to. Chances od getting any update to head gear before 6.0? At this point I think it would be safe to assume not very high.

So people who want to use head gear do not have many options. They could in theory check out the mods, and take the risk it comes with while waiting for an update, just wait.

What they pick is up to them.

Everything you want wont always come true be gracious you got a response in regards to the issue

When it comes to headgear- imo there are things that take precedence over others- like Mogstation bought items that include hairstyles/ headgear-- or Matoya's hat for example. Those should have been added at launch, the ability to wear those.
I don't think Viera or Hrothgar will ever get these added, though- it's an ongoing request to an issue SE will put on the backburner, much like other cosmetics- (like Yugiri's hair, Hilda's hair, Hiens hair, etc) But out of all of this, mogstation items & special items only obtained through real money should have been first.

That's all the pointy wizard hats fixed.

It's still not everything, but it's a start.

I've given up on most Headgear, post-5.0 they haven't given Viera most of the helmet options put out which is ridiculous really. At this point I just want them to flesh out customizations options like they've said they would get to for over a year.

i was hopeful , but patch notes are out and there is nothing about viera/hrothgar
so i guess we just have to accept our fate , and say that it's part of the lore to make it less painful :-:
let's say the forest will curse any viera that wears a hat or something .. also their traditions forbid them from having any hairstyle other than the ones they have

Since the Mogstation items are built at the request of a different business unit from the FFXIV development team, and since the art teams don't currently have the ability to add those hairstyles/headgear to accommodate Viera and Hrothgar in-game due to current modeling limitations, it's probably not going to happen.

When (and if) those modeling limitations are eliminated, I would see new mogstation items taking advantage of that fact.

There's no modeling limitation, modders can do it.
The only limitation is time and "maybe" cost; but I'm not sure cost is the real limitation because as they said "you can't just throw money and solve the problem." They were pointing to time and quality assurance.
The funny thing will be when fanfest comes around and they make no announcement about doing anything as far as character customization goes (for any race).

i feel like if they were gonna add it they would actually advertise it, like as a point, rather than just slipping it in. Or at least show it off more, it is pretty heavily requested. I'd laugh if they would just casually slip it in a patch.
