    Can the Hrothgar please get the use of helmets finally?

    Considering the huge success of Shadowbringers, youd think you devs would have done something about coming up with some helmets for advanced jobs that the Hrothgar could use.
    For instance, I figured, at the LEAST the ninja class would have had a headset he could use... NOPE!

    its incredibly disappointing, and immersion breaking, and takes away from a key piece of ALL your armors...

    PLEASE square, fix this.
    There are PLENTY of mmos with head sets designed for characters with ears, and if nothing else, and you wanna be technical about this... my Hrothgars ears are just as proportionate in size as the Elzen, or the Miqote.

    Id like to be able to put on a helmet and finish the ensemble please. This is a VERY easy fix. VERY. ears DONT have to show through a helmet. Just put on the helmet... funny thing is, most of us playing heroes with ears will just imagine that are laid down under the helm if you cant seem to figure it out.
    But the lack of headware for my Hrothgar is pretty lazy from an artistic and dev standpoint.

    Tbh, this is the main thing that holds me back regarding Hrothgar. I love the race, I really do. I've even rolled one twice, but the lack of helmets is just...jarring. With my current favorite glamour it probably wouldn't affect me much, but GNB isn't the only job I play. A RDM without a RDM hat is blasphemy. Same could be said with the BRD AF sets.

    Absolutely not. You will let me gaze upon your glorious feline complexion in awe.

    If it's any consolation with NIN, the level 80 AF gear you can wear, and it's surprisingly well adjusted to a Hrothgar's face, with no clipping and no floating.

    Lets be honest, if you had ears like that it wouldnt be comfortable to have them smashed under a Helmet. Plus how are you gonna hear with a helmet on top of them?

    But Its more complex then just the ears. Alot of the headgear would have to be completely redone to fit the Hrothgar head.
    Some Helmets for example was designed to fit a Humanoid head and face. The Hrothgar are a Beast race, they have snouts/Muzzles, the gear would have to be remade to accommodate that. Some eyewear would need some changes like Eyepatches, Im wearing one on my Alt and it does not completely cover the eye.
    Other things like Circlets and masks would need some remodeling as well, because alot of it can be worn, but most of it looks funky.
    Hats...I think I can chop up hats to being an issue with the Hair. I think the Hair problem with it being tiered to the faces needs to be changed before they can do hats.

    Its not as simple of a fix as you or many people may think it is. These are not the same Human heads that all the other races have.
    I will agree though that It sucks the Ninja Masks can't be worn. I love the Stormblood Vetern Set. The mask is the best part.
    Shadowbringers Mask isn't as cool looking, but that can at least be worn by Hrothgar.

    In fairness, a silly argument considering cat/elf ears. The specially molded ear projections on helms for elezen look like they would be an absolute nightmare to put on.
