Case in point: We have lalafell in the game yes? Find me armor concept that are drawn with the lalafell body in mind? You might find.. maybe one? But I don't remember seeing anything beyond the draft for the racial armor or concept for specific npc or the race itself. I don't think I've ever seen any armor concept like pvp/dungeon/etc drawn with that multi positional view for lalafell.

Why? It's disproportionate. It makes it quite difficult to make a universal mesh/texture for armor to fit on other races. They use these longer/taller bodies to get all the details in the concept to go to digital production. This is why the Crafting armor, AF armor, AF2 Armor, Dungeon armor, Pvp armor concepts are all done on what looks like either Midlander body types.

But let's take a closer look:



As you can see it all pretty much exactly lines up to the other caster armor. Is it a bit bulkier? in some places yes, but it also doesn't have the thick/poofier sections some of the other armors have. The one part is the feet. Those strange anthropomorphic looking feet! well here you go:



High heels without the stiletto added. This would also explain why the foot is longer on the blm than the sch one, it is walking on the front of the foot/toes.


I don't really see anything that screams confirmation on another race. Just an armor that was so masterfully done, it makes you think so. And isn't that the point of them? To convince you that you are that animal?
