Dear ZOS: Guild Tabards and Outfits

Hello all,

it is baffling to me, that two major patches have gone live without adressing this minor issue:
ZOS introduces an outfit system that seems to replace motifs in the long run and we still have to use these weird and ugly tabards to represent our guilds.
Using a tabard is a) covering the outfit you (maybe) painstakingly put together - nobody can see it b) changing the textures of the armor you are wearing.

Dear ZOS:
Give us an option to hide the tabard or to just represent our guild with a little menu or whatever - tabards and outfit system just don't work together.


I am not a game designer, just a moaning customer, but i don't think that should be too difficult and it is certainly not a major strain on your ressources!

    Agreed, that seems like a major oversight in this function

    Would be nice to have it working with guild tabard

    Needs to be done. These tabbards are absurd looking

    Capes would have been so much better than tabbards. The tabbards are hiddeous.

    It would be a bit better if the chest piece under the tabard was actually visible, but instead it's replaced with a stylish black turtleneck.

    Yes, while stylish and does tend to ruin the aura of the dangerous warrior/devious sorcerer you are trying to convey.

    Maybe an arm band/insignia or something small would work.
    Anybody got a group? LFG, anybody? Hello?

    1. The outfit system didn’t replace motifs. Motifs drive the outfit system.

    2. The tabard has long been out guild flag.

    3. This is most important. This topic/thought OP presented here hasn’t been a hot topic in these forums. It’s baffling to me OP is disdained Zos hasn’t made the changes he wants being this hasn’t been a hotbed or discussion.

    My solution is remove the tabards from game. They aren’t really needed.

    Oddly enough, a lot of the older armors still work fine with the tabbard. But the new ones where it goes almost black instead of being transparent look pretty bad. I guess I was lucky though, because the Magicka guild tabard is pretty sweet looking.

    1. Currently we have outfit pages in the game that bypass motifs. But anyway, this is off topic!
    3. I don't really care if it has been a hot topic on the forum. It has been reported and dicussed before that the outfit-system and tabards do not work together and even remove the armor texture (see here and here) . So it is a bug that has not been adressed and a cosmetic issue.

    Removing the tabard would be fine for me (as long as we can represent our guilds in some other ways) - but a simple 'hide tabard' option should also work!
