I personally would rather have shoulders be their own item slot. Which in turn would make them be available to hide through the emperors new set or whatever it's called

And then while we're at it make belts actually show as well. Always found it odd that belts aren't cosmetic yet have their own item slot, especially when you consider things like rings bracelets and earrings are cosmetic, something which other games don't often have.

Will never happen though as I'd imagine it'd take quite the effort to implement shoulder gear for 1-60 for all classes
