    Replica Allagan/High Allagan accessories

    The various (really cool) glowing accessories not having replica versions while the rest of the armor types do is kinda a glaring oversight.
    I would really like to get my hands on some, but not having any luck running what is at this point a pretty old raid.
    Dye-able glow color would be awesome too, but just being able to make em is enough.

    I'd love to see this, I was disappointed to find accessories were missing when I logged on and checked my gsm after the other items were added.

    I sit an oversight thought? Assessorsries have been neglected aesthetically, and with good reason. They can be easily obscured. Those nice earrings you got? Hidden by a face concealing helm or a hood. A necklace, hidden by anything that doesn't deliberately show cleavage? Rings? hidden by gloves.

    The devs don;t seem to make gear that show off the assessories most of the time, furthering this problem.

    I generally only wear glamours that don't cover them, which is rather easy to do. They have made plenty of options for that (well depending on race I suppose).

    I'm a miqote who more or less hates hats, so really easy to see earrings on me.
    Necklaces are about 50/50, armbands I almost never see, rings I'd rather not see.
    But in the end, "you don't see them as much" is a pretty lazy excuse for a model/texture that already exists with an extra item entry and _maybe_ a texture map adjustment for dyeing.

    At the same time "you don't see them as much" also is their likely excuse as for why the accessories have less models then the left hand gear. in 2.X we only have a few pallette swaps based on the Gem and Metal (Or in some cases, Bone and leather) used for the 1-49 gear. With the Level 50 ones also using these models. The Plantum ones were the only ones that differ from the other accessories besides the event ones. Heavensward was better with this with new wooden accessories and less pallette swaps (though they still exist, The Dungeon drops from Arboretum to Gubal HM have used pallete swaps of the Woad, Orthodox and the aforementioned Platinum accs with the Ironworks crafting accs being pallete swaps of the Eikonic accs) but they are still very prone to reusing the same old models for new gear (The Shire set's diversity makes it the best example of this)

    I want to see more sets like the Yasha/Asuran sets where the Accessories as well as the gear use entirely different models.

    Side note: I also try to avoid hats and helmets usually.
