Female Hrothgar as a playable race. Show your support!

[ejunniim]

I think I might give it some final touches after I will get the Encyclopedia in a few days. And I can just imagine a cool coeurl-like female Hrothgar. And maybe it's because of the recency of it, but I imagine it in the new crafter glam they showed at the EU fan fest (looks really cool). But yeah I cannot wait for the reveal and benchmark!

But I think it would be better after the benchmark if we completely moved to the "Show your Hrothgar" thread.
I am so excited for JP, just 4 more weeks to go! Woooooo!

OMG yes! YESH! I was so excited when they gave us concepts for the new gear at London Festival. Can't entirely say if this set was intended for a blacksmith or a leatherworker, but still, it's amazing!



Also not sure if we can ask this of you, but if there are new concepts or lore details... it would be great to learn it! Of course, if this is not a violation of SE' rules, and you'd like to (´｡• ᵕ •｡`)

The set you have in the picture I bet my bottom dollar is a Leatherworker since in the right hand the tool looks like a Headkinfe that they use. As for getting lore details from the book coming out I would say that there shouldn't be any violations talking about that unless you somehow break the street date. If anything they probably would be more disappointed about loosing out on a book sale than coming after you with a ban-hammer for getting details from the book from someone else.

I do think that is the leatherworker, but boy do they look amazing! And sure, if I find anything new I will post here to keep people up to date! I don't think that SE would have a problem with it as long as I don't just straight-up repost the book contents. But if I find anything, I will definitely share!

That's a head knife for leatherworking in the hand there.

Only 2 days until Encyclopaedia Eorzea volume III is here. I am very curious to see if we will get anything new about female Hrothgar, or Hrothgar in general. I am not expecting anything new besides what was shown, but I will be pleasantly surprised if we do get something new.

Only three-ish weeks until all is revealed!

So before anyone goes to the pictures, there are no new pictures of female Hrothgar, only the old ones, like the mural and the queen from the art book.
There is more info on Bozja, so there is at least that!








More info on Bozja, so that is good, but I guess a sneak peek before Fan Fest would have been too much to ask.
My one fear is the reinforcement of the Queen from the art book and the mural. I will hold hope until Fan Fest, but I don't like the odds.
Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures, I took them before going to work.

Unrelated but Hrothgar (and by extension Hrothgals) are also going to benefit immensely from the graphical update by getting a fur shader. Bear in mind it will look better in-game than the below picture since SE insists on using low res versions of all media.



Another shot of the fur shader in action on an alpaca.

I wasn’t really expecting anything too spoilery from EEIII. I’m sure they’ll get their own spread in EEIV! Still would’ve been nice to get that sneak peek, even if it was only a small background image or something!

I'm not super surprised but I'm a bit perplexed by the fact that they didn't include pictures of female Hrothgar. It's kinda weird for them to be the only race to not have both genders pictured together in the books. That's why I was counting on them being announced at the London FanFest. I understand that it would have meant delaying the release (considering assets might not have even been ready for them) but oh well.
