Please make the Au Ra horns separate from the faces!

[Selli]

Yeah, I know what you mean! Really hope we get some word soon; otherwise I'm starting to believe my poor au ra lady will have to contend with crabclaw-horns. ):

I know I posted this picture before, but whenever I picture those horns I just think of spiders or scorpions. XD Some kind of weird pincer things.

That comparison sounds much more awesome, haha - rather a bad-ass scorpion lady than a lady with crabclaws coming out of her head! :P I shall promptly adopt this idea.

seems like a silly oversight, but considering the horns are likely modeled into the face i can see why it's that way.

I know everyone tells me Chocobos have flown in other ff games, it just doesn't logically make sense for even the regular chocobo to fly with wings that are half the size of its own body. But yet not only can it support its own weight with those tiny wings, It can support a person on top of that.

Well... Logically it doesn't make sense that Moogles fly either. But they do.

Of course, FFverse has magic. RLverse doesn't. =D Well, not that kind, though I still can't explain bumblebees*.

Logically it doesn't make sense that we keep reviving every time we die. Mama Crystal Life Insurance must be working overtime, with all these adventurers signing up...



*) Yes, I know there's a biological explanation. There might be one for chocobos as well; it's just that no one's written the wikipedia page on chocobo aerodynamics yet =D

I know how you feel. I think I might make one myself... like right now.

Huehuehue.

I hope not. Would be nice to know for sure either way. Kill my dreams SE if you must, just don't leave us in uncertain hell. lol

These words. So true. QwQ

Probably a bit late for it.

And this race already has a billion customization options as it is...but it does make sense to make them separate.

Well this thread was made nearly a month ago, very shortly after the Benchmark came out. So it wasn't too late then. Before that point we didn't know the horns and faces were together, so it's not like this could have been suggested sooner.

And tbh, between the horns and faces being stuck together and there only being 4 tail options (Miqo'te have 8 tails, granted 3 of them are repeated ones with a dyeable tail tip, but excluding those we still have 5 tails which is 1 more than the Au Ra have), I feel they're all going to look very copy-and-paste as we see the same horn/face/possibly tail combo repeated a lot. The only thing that makes them look "super different" from each other are those eye rings which, imo, aren't very pretty looking.

I'm sure they have seen the suggestion, but are not replying before they have a confirmed, finite answer. Surely they're busy enough with last tweaks for Heavensward, and while separating horn choices from the faces seems simple enough, finalizing and adding it to the client might be a bit more tricky.

Because this thread gets bumbed regularly, I'd like to add a note about the earring placement.



Even with revealing hairstyles they will be hidden with most - if not all - horn options. Why hide earrings? Those that don't like them, can glamour them with The Emperor's New Earrings.

I was hoping they would be more like Miqote's and dangle from the horns, where some faces have the ornament option, like so:



Apart from Miqote, most hairstyles on rest of the races hide the earrings, I was hoping I could finally roll a nice look AND show-off earrings.

And as someone said in another thread, Gaius did it too! http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2...del_Render.png
