    Alexandrian Gauntlets of Maiming

    I understand that we can't dye the 270 alex gear, they wanted to add some extra features which is cool! However, these gloves bug the hell out of me. As far as I can tell they are the only ones to not match the color/texture of the rest of armor sets.

    I also believe that the boots for monks are off as well

    I'd like that these get changed, what do you guys think?

    Monk Boots look fine to me (Though maybe those blue highlights should be red or orange), but definitely agreed on the Dragoon Gauntlets.

    The color looks fine, but the rest of the armor is a distinctly metallic, while the arms look more like leather. Definitely a texture fail there that I agree should be fixed.

    Wow. Those are... not the most attractive looking set of gloves. I'm not sure leather looks good in that set.

    Oh, the same texture that is under the golden metal trim on the thighs... Doesn't look like they forgot to add a texture. It completely looks as intended.

    It looks ok I guess, but if you're worried about it you can just glamour it, right?

    Even there it looks kinda metallic. I dunno, I could glamour it yeah but it would just be nice if it went with the set. Every other set all has the same textures, which made me think this kind of got pushed to the side.

    Look underneath the burnished gold. There is padding of the exact color and matte texture as the gloves. (Keep in mind that there is still shine and shadow added to armor.)
