    The gap is there because where the tail is attached is the default size of all tails. Actually making a big, thick tail completely different from the rest would've been pretty difficult when combining with female Au Ra physique. I guess it's also to prevent some clipping.

    The animations look fine to me but that gap is like a constant itch that you try to ignore...
    The gap looks intentional. It's not at all uncommon for certain species of reptiles to have a tail a little thicker than its base. Maybe not that extreme, but that's probably the appearance SE was shooting for. Plus, to accommodate a tail of that size on a body of that shape it would require having it start higher up the back or have the bottom of the tail meld with your buttcheeks. I'm pretty sure you'd prefer it as is.

    With this character's death, the thread of prophecy remains intact.

    My "tail 4" seems to appear fine with all my gear. I'd love to see horns as a separate option from faces in character creation, however

    I noticed that if you wear Evenstar Coat your tail turns into a Miqo'te tail (except its stiff and pointed up)


    Since my tail is so thick it must really hurt to compress it this small!

    It's so the tail sticks out the tail hole in armor designed for Miqo tails.

    In anything that has flaps over the butt like most tunics and poofy robes, it's not noticeable.

    OMG! That looks like a major oversight!


    I just wanted longer tails... like to my ankles...

    I doubt it's an oversight - more like, it wasn't worth the time and manpower to go back and alter every single piece of old gear to accommodate new tails. And gear from HW on will be designed with au ra tails in mind.

    the /changepose for weapons are the only thing the tails look weird on, they just kind of freeze, stick far out and have no movement at all.

    DRG AF2. If you check out the HW benchmark, the tails get replaced on that too. Although it does look better than the evenstar boner tail.
