So, basically, the sleeves and shoulders are the main problems with this race then. It's a shame really because I really love how the hrothgals turned out. I used to fear that they would look like Miqo'te girls or something.
Would really like some sort of mention about this should Yoshi P make another post. The hrothgar body type already means a lot of my usual bunny glams do not suit her, nevermind needing to avoid anything with sleeves or shoulderpads.
I was made aware of the big shoulders issue when I saw this, the Virtu Bodyguard's coat. I like oversized shoulders but on some of the armours it does seem a bit much. The arms are clearly not *this* big.
That said I really do love the Hrothgar.I'm really happy with how they look otherwise.
So wishlist so far is adjust rigging so that clothes don't look comically weird on our hrothgals, give us all the hairstyles we are missing aaand... unlock the racial hairs from faces for heavens sake.
I do suggest people keep posting any gear that looks bad in here. Keep a list going.
The fat cat hood displays so many development issues with Hrothgal...
Chunks of my face are actually literally missing.

The minimal (or lack of) quality assurance seems more jarring this time around...this patch is in serious need of a hotfix or two.
Oh well. I'll hold off on buying the Fat Cat set. :/
Oki I can't make a gif of it now but even some mounts are wack. I dunno if other larger races have this issue cause I never played them. The "Flying Chair" mount, I am currently in my BLM artifact gear and it's like there is a permanent gust of wind blowing my clothes. Come off the mount... no wind... try another mount and also no wind. The bed mount in the same BLM artifact gear has my knee clipping badly through the cloth of the top. It's a bit sad.
I’m not sure this counts as a rigging issue, but I’ve noticed that some of the head accessories I used as a Viera don’t even work as a Hrothgal, including the Makai butterfly and a couple others I can’t remember at the moment. I was already used to not wearing hats, but now I’m even more limited by not even getting some simple hair accessories with no warning they’d be taken away
I don't know about that specific one, I would expect it to work, but from playing a Hrothguy I know the number of things you can wear is more limited, because the gear can't always deal well with the big cat muzzle. Would be so cool to wear the Sky Pirate Mask of Scouting/Striking and just use the goggles without the mouth part, but alas...I’m not sure this counts as a rigging issue, but I’ve noticed that some of the head accessories I used as a Viera don’t even work as a Hrothgal, including the Makai butterfly and a couple others I can’t remember at the moment.

I'm not sure if it's the muzzle though. On the Late Allagan sets from the Wolf's Den, you can wear every head piece *except* Healer's, which is the only one that goes *on* your head instead of being a mask/visor of some kind.I don't know about that specific one, I would expect it to work, but from playing a Hrothguy I know the number of things you can wear is more limited, because the gear can't always deal well with the big cat muzzle.

Likewise with the Universal Gear from the Trophy Crystal vendor. You can use the Model A-1 goggles and B-1 masks, but the C-1 hoods are out of the question.
