Imperial City DC Medium looks awful

Mashille

All the other Alliance armor looks so awesome, including the DC light and Heavy.

But the DC Medium looks awful, just terrible.

Shoulders look stupid, chest sticks out like a sore thumb, looks like it doesn't fit together and in general looks bad.

Any chance of the model being changed/edited?

I think the shoulder implementation on ALL armor is terrible. They never fit together and always have a space between the chest piece and shoulder piece... very very poor work from the art department on shoulder pad implementation. Besides that, too many of them stick up like HUGE boxes on your shoulders- like the 'Ancient Elf'... I think even they would be smart enough to realize that in actual combat, those shoulder pieces would be a major visual obstruction in combat. "Hey buddy, look over your shoulder"... "I can't, these shoulder pads are in the way."

To be honest, I really like the DC medium armour compared to the EP equivalent set. The EP set didn't look medium at all, more towards heavy actually. I just wished it would be somewhat toned down to look more of medium armour. The DC set is, however, a bit conservative in terms of aggression. It needs to look more menacing in my opinion but I'm content with how the DC medium set looks.

It looks more like heavy anyway and just in general looks bad

That does look awful. Saying that, I think Dwemer gear looks awful too. In both ESO and TES.

It doesn't even look Medium is the worst part. And the Plume on the Helmet...

Im pretty sure that if Medium is meant to make you better at sneaking and maneuverability then a massive Feather Plume kinda goes againt that doesn't it.

It also looks kinda low res compared ti the Other armors the added. With all the pieces not really fitting together.

That armor is just downright ugly. In general, I don't like negatively criticizing artistic work because the artist is entitled to their vision, but the concept for this armor truly is awful.

If you have the Imperial edition of the game and are a crafter, it's possible to convert many armor styles to the Imperial style, but I don't know if it's possible with the special armor that drops in places like IC.

It's bad tho. I picked it on PTS and was like WELP won't wear this in the game.
