Hrothgar General complaint

[pvvee]

The Hrothgar in design is something I am very happy with although it feels like some of the appearance hasn't been addressed on forums.

Like I said I am very happy to be a Hrothgar/Ronso, though the following should be addressed:

1. Mount sizes, should be as big as the Roe/Aura since his hands do not actually physically touch the mounts when he's riding them.

2. The hair is constantly in the robes/cloaks and some armoured (and non-collared) gear which is very frustrating.

2a. In relation to 2, Some of the equipment specifically the scholar's book is not properly held by the Hrothgar since the book is too small for the casting animation.

3. I should not need to use a fantasia potion just to change my hair, the hair designs cannot be altered without changing the physical face in the screen (I would like to put my hair up to avoid problem 2).

4. Hrothgar cannot wear many helmets of the past which I come to hear is an issue being addressed.

Thank you very much

If you know that #4 is being adressed, why bring it up?
It's time consuming and it will take time but it is worked on.
Kinda feel like that one could've been left out honestly.

Something I wonder and not sure if it was ever addressed: It's to be expected that past items are a hassle to remodel for Hroths (and Viera, for that matter) but at the same time all the future head slot items to be released should take both of them into consideration.

This is a serious issue, especially since they stated that they were going to add new faces/hairstyles over time. It's not fair that Hrothgar need to drop 10 bucks just to change their hairstyle. I get that since it affects their face type as well it's more than just a simple cosmetic change, but if they're going to lock a basic customization feature such as hair behind a paywall like that then they should have looked into ways to make the hair and face separate. I don't understand how SE expects people to stay committed to one style, and they didn't even make it an option to at least change between hairstyles that are linked to the same face type. I sincerely hope they change this in the future.

Yeah this is the big downside on it, hairstyles stuck to face and needing 10 bucks to change your hair. I really hope they change that and add more hairstyles.

their animations are pretty bad. they run like somebody shoved a broom handle up their arse

[Seraphor]

They may not ever add new hairstyles. SO I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Functionally, Hrothgar hairstyles work the same as Au Ra horns. They use the same variable slot.
This is likely why the hair can't be hidden under helmets as well, just like Au Ra horns always stick through helmets.
The hair system has been utilized for fur patterns and colours, so we're more likely to get more fur patterns.
This makes Hrothgar the only race who can change their skin tone at the Aesthetician.

The problem with the hair sticking through the robes is why I changed my hrothgar to a viera. Because a viera doesn't have that problem as far as I have seen.

The only Hrothgar complaint i have is that when they are aiming machinist weapons, they are pointing towards the ground instead at the enemy, thats the only reason i dont play Hrothgar

The only thing that might (and a very big might) be addressed (other than 4 which is already being addressed) is 3. 1 and 2 have been rampant throughout this game, not just with Hrothgar and probably won't ever be fixed.
