Why do Viera and Hrothgar Pay the Same for Less?

[Starflake]

I noticed new optional items are available yet again and both these races can - to nobody's surprise - not wear the head piece. So why is it that players that use this race have to pay the same amount of money for less? Staying on this topic. When you are buying a Fantasia, why would you pay the same amount when changing into a Viera or Hrothgar as you are simply getting less? Shadowbringers is almost over and both these races have not even received a new hairstyle! Let alone being able to wear the gear.

SE should make a Viera Potion and Hrothgar potion that costs less than the regular one as you are getting less for your product. It's a legitimate question. Please keep it civil. I myself will not participate in the discussion.

Because people will buy them anyway. I think being forced to buy a pack is already bad enough since I might not want another generic pair of trousers which will be covered by a giant skirt, or a bracelet which will be covered by my gloves, so imagine paying for an invisible hat.

I have a Hrothgar ALT. And honestly, the apparent work people did in the background to fit in most Glasses and Face Type gear to the Hrothgar was more then Perfect for me. I am eternally grateful we got it last minute. (apparently)
Im the type that likes to see my characters face, but Im not big on Hats. So being able to Put on Glasses so I can have the 'Mature", smart or sage type look was just BOOM, perfect!. (Specs are sexy-fight me)

There is more then enough discussion around this topic on another thread, but Im gonna echo hope that 6.0 will feature some updates to both Viera and Hrothgar.
I can easily be wrong, but I will found out soon enough

Missed this post earlier. Don't get me wrong now, I think the devs giving their own time so hrothgar/viera players could have some headgear is more than admirable - and is probably the reason they continue to receive some headgear, rather than none. But, a lot of this headgear floats really badly - on both. For example, the Far Eastern Schoolgirl's Hair Ribbon floats above a viera's head, and actually the only hair, at least that I used, that would work for it was the big ponytail. I wish we could receive some updates to alleviate this somewhat. At least with certain pieces.

They are not paying for "less", they pay for these items to be sent to their character. You CAN keep it in your dresser until you race change into something that can wear it.

Yeah, and you can even use it as a glamour for Kurenai or your squadron members. The options are limitless.

Wow.. Good thing I switched back to my au ra, right when a desirable glamour comes out. One where viera/hrothgar have no access to the hat. Bought it.

Viera/hrothgar just getting left out of everything INCLUDING mogstation items SUCKS. Personally, with mogstation Items, I feel like they should try to make an exception... sometimes.. and fit the headgear/hair for them.. That's just me though.

Well, as long people keep throwing money at them everything will stay the same since there is no monetary motivation to fix it. In particular when you have players using fantasia like once a week or even less time than that.

I agree they should sell items separately.
In the most recent addition... the gloves are OK but the diaper, shoes hat and chest piece are horrid. I think they closed their eyes and randomly picked pieces from another set to put together. eeeek. Please se add items separately and how about ONE mogstation outfit with stiletto heeled shoes + (DYEABLE!!) sheesh

Will be ideal, however (once again) there are plenty of people that buy full costumes to just use one item of the set. No reason to change how its working right now.

I wish you could buy outfit pieces individually. I have no desire for any of the costumes on the mog station, but I do like a lot of the pieces. Easiest solution would be keep the costume packs as is, and then have a break-down menu. Obviously this would have buying the whole pack be less expensive as buying each piece on their own, but you could just get that top you really like and not have the other 4 pieces collect dust on a retainer.
