So you are supposed to slaughter a monster, cut it up, fashion it into a mask/shoulder, and it looks like this ....

I dont see the resemblance

Admitted it does look pretty and all....just dont think its appropriate.

There are monsters that look pretty out there. They're evil on the inside. I'm thinking about lamia, nereid, and maybe lich. That's all I can think of right now. :P

Rather than monster helms and shoulders. Give full armour or jewlery sets.

Make it so you can go for instance.

Skoria.

2pc helm+shoulder same as it does..

5pc armour usual spell power etc and 5th perk 10% chance on hit to fossilize the attacker.

Jewlery set does something good too.

All 10 armor pieces Inc jewlery. Develop some kind of superpower. Like ignite the ground below you, kind of like eye of the storm.

Something like that anyway. Imagine the rng in getting perfect weight and traits. Painful but worth it.

Its kind of hard to make the severed and hollowed head of your foes look beautiful ...

BigBragg · October 2016

I like this idea a lot, as I enjoy things blended with Victorian design elements. Hideous is not a requirement for a monsters, some can be beautiful and terrifying.

Well the idea is to do something DIFFERENT from Monster Sets. A cool piece of head and shoulder gear that has similar effects and bonuses as the Monster sets but actually looks attractive instead of, you know, monstrous. Because choice is good and I'd like ot be able to finally "play my way" which includes being able to make my characters look the way I want them to.

And you can! You have the choice to not wear monster helmets

slice the head of and make a mask out of Angie Stower

I really don't understand how this NPC can work 2 jobs at the same time, as bank teller in both Daggerfall and Coldharbour

Because, like most bankers, she is actually a Daedra.

Aren't those the ZOS employees who decided to "merchant" gambling boxes to us?

Valykc · October 2016

If like one like a half mask, that covers from your chin to the bridge of your nose. Like a samurai mask without the top in sides but fashioned to resemble some monster. That would be cool

AnviOfVai · October 2016

Oh YES PLEASE

I find all the monster helms on the *ugly side* But cool at the same time, I do like the daedra monster helm though

Hmm Monster Helm... Pretty monsters?

Only one dude comes to mind:

@katiesmith12341 EXCELLENT!! lol

Flameheart · October 2016

It's not just the design. Design is a matter of taste, always, but am I the only one who realized that the most monster set styles look much more pixelated and even of lower detail and lower texture quality/resolution as the other, newer armor styles ?

altemriel · October 2016

well, they are monster sets, what do you expect

?

they look like the head of the monster itself, that is ok for me,

hide helmet option is the solution

Abeille · October 2016

I don't care much for the head pieces, I can just hide it and hope ZOS releases nice looking hats and masks.

But the shoulders... The shoulders could be better looking. Or give me the option to hide them too. Yikes.

Tonnopesce · October 2016

So you go in a dungeon, cut the head of a creature in order to wear it, and suddendly the head transform into a tipical Venice Carnival mask....
Pretty strage if you ask me.

code65536 · October 2016

So... wear Kena?

Mojmir · October 2016

I like how sellistrix shoulder looks like a nine inch ***,not really

Kodrac · October 2016

Monster... pretty.... monster... pretty... I'm not getting the correlation here.

Then you didn't read the OP very closely. What is being requested are sets similar to the Monster Sets IN EFFECT but with a different, and attractive, aesthetic.

Taleof2Cities · October 2016

Monster masks don't have to be "ugly" as a criteria ... I think the OP's idea is a good one ...

Thank you. Much appreciated.

Please keep in mind that some of us would like things that are attractive instead of hideous. The monster sets have neat effects but they are uniformly ugly. Of course I will hear, "Well they are MONSTERS! They are SUPPOSED to be ugly!" And I get it, really I do. But we have PLENTY of ugly now. So can we please get Some PRETTY? Can our next sets of head and shoulder sets look something like this?

That just doesnt fit the undaunted theme... They are trophies, not Barbie accessories...

waterfairy · October 2016

Every one of those pics in the OP looks more hideous to me then the bobbleheads we have in game...truly terrible.
