    Can we glamour invisible our shields too? o;

    Hello!

    Since patch 2.4 you all know we can make rings, earrings, nacklaces, bracelets invisible with those lv1 gears from Mor Dohna NPC Shop by using alchemie lv1 glamours.
    Its a handsome feature if you dont like the appearance of your accessory's make it invisible! ;D


    My question is: Why not the same for shields too? D:
    In my opinion all shields dont look nice. <.<;

    If Im on the mood to play as Paladin, I would like to wear my shield. Invisible!
    But no, we dont have that. So I always unequip my (ugly)shield - shield skills locked! s:
    (Side info: I dont play as Tank-class in partys/Dungeons)

    (Sorry if my english grammar is bad. Im german o; )

    Well, considering the concept of Paladins is to protect others - and you can't really do that very well with only a one-handed sword - I doubt that they're just going to allow shields to be invisible. You probably also don't want a giant monster biting your arm off.

    As a side note, I'm honestly curious, what do you think constitutes a "nice-looking" shield? The High Allagan Kite Shield doesn't look all that bad, unless you hate stuff that glows.

    Yeah, I get this... sometimes I've wanted to show the sword, but felt the shield was too plain or clipped too much. :/ You can hide both sword and shield of course, but I'm guessing you still want the sword to show?

    On a side note... I know folks in the EN forum often joke about how our questions go unanswered since we don't speak JP, but I've seen so many DE/FR posters ask questions on the EN forums instead of the DE/FR forums that I'm beginning to wonder if it's even worse for you guys.


    eta: Wait... if you don't actually tank dungeons... you don't even need to equip a shield. O.o Just leave it off. Problem solved.

    I walk around without my shield and do single player stuff without it as well, because that's how I like his look. Invisible Shield option would be cool. Got to look into those invisible earrings as I hate wearing them.

    i support this, if it hurt's people's minds too much to imagine someone blocking without a shield, have you seen how thick our gauntlets get? They're practically bucklers at this point.

    Why not make a whole "Emperor's New" set, weapons included? ...Ok maybe just fist-weapons. If "glamour" is truly the name of the game here (which seems to be the case), why not let people go shirtless if that's what they want?

    That's what the South Seas/Coeurl Talismans basically are.

    (Also you have no idea how bad I want to make my fist weapons invisible and punch people with my actual fists. A lot of the arm pieces would look really amazing as weapons as is, although the animations might look weird because they're designed to 'hold' something, so I don't know. Point is I'd love to punch with the Ehcatl gloves.)
