Viera and Hrothgar Megathread

[LuciaMirain]

We have had discussions about hats a long time ago, I think people are just annoyed with the hairs now because for some reason they decided on THOSE specific hairs when people have been wanting all the others for a long time. And now there is no telling when any other will be added. We can no longer trust that they will actually give us what they say.

True, many times. I am not a quiet disgruntled viera player, and have been a part of those discussions. I do wonder what their criteria was when choosing hairs, was it just at random? I can understand the Snow/Lightning hair at least. Why ponytail specifically, etc.? There is no telling. It just seems we will get what we get when we get it. That's about it. No saying which hairs or not. Kind of sucks, but that's how it is for viera players.

I was really hoping the Both Ways hairstyle was gonna be one of the ones they ported over, too I hope it's coming because it's one of my favourites.

You and me both! It's a great looking style, and is also great for avoiding clipping with many tops.

I think they prioritized ones that were probably easier to implement than others, also different styles might be more popular in other regions than in ours and they probably factor that in as well because they said they prioritized these due to them being high demand and I really almost never see anyone wearing most of them. There's also probably some consideration for if they were a grind to get, such as Controlled Chaos.

Can anyone guide me how to get new Viera hairstyles introduced in 6.0?

Can anyone guide me how to get new Viera hairstyles introduced in 6.0?

"Scanning for Style" and "Battle-ready Bobs" can be obtainable from either the Tower at Paradigm's Breach from the last loot roll; or can be bought off the market board (This is the 9S and 2B hairstyles)

"Ponytails" can be obtained from the Gold Saucer, I think for a few thousand MGP, 8k if I remember correctly, don't really know for sure.

"Pulse" is obtainable from the Mogstation from buying either the Lightning Attire or Snow Attire. If you gender change with fantasia, the hairstyle changes depending on male or female.

"Controlled Chaos" is obtainable from Ishgard Restoration, or you can just buy it off the market board.

Hope this helps! c:
