'Hide Helmet', how about having a 'Hide Armour' feature.

Castiel_Silvermist

We have costumes and we have the outfit station, however, sometimes you might just wanna run around in just a guild tabbard...you know...for guild events and stuff. Rather than taking the armour off and just equipping a tabbard....which will lead to insta-death depending on what you're doing...could we maybe get a 'Hide Armour' option, similar to 'hide helmet'. Would be cool.
And by 'hide armour' I mean, having the ability to hide each piece of gear by clicking on each piece and hiding it. So each gear slot has the option, just like helmets.
Thoughts?

Yes! this needs to be a thing!

I think so. I’ve realized that most of the shoulder styles are pretty poorly done and that most of them either float way above your body or have absolutely horribly clipping issues.

I'd prefer it to be incorporated into the outfit system and make it so the outfit system allows you to hide any specific armor slot completely, meaning your gear under the outfit doesn't show either.

would be awesome

No. Just take your gear off.

Now I can understand hide helmet you spend much time on a character you want to at least see the face I get that.

Hide armor that’s just silly.

Silly ha? Let's just say we Orcs of cousre have handsome features, but our proudest body part is hidden inside armor.

Yes, I want to see my body tatts while running around Cyro

I can understand wanting to hide certain pieces of your armor, like shoulders, belt, helmet, and maybe gloves. Boots even. However, the last thing I want ESO to turn into is a massive nudist colony.

No, too many guys will run around as girls in bra and undies and personally it would just make this game a horrible joke and I wouldn't be able to tolerate it much

seems like common sense to me to add this

Let us hide individual pieces. Most of the shoulders in this game simply do not look good.

Kikke

No. Just take your gear off.

lol

I'd be happy with just the shoulder option, I think all items would be a little much.

You can already hide your daggers as swords and wear bathing towels as armor and you consider this silly?

TelvanniWizard

Could care less.

But, hey, if you want, I hope you get it.

No to "hide armour".

Yes to "hide underwear".

That way you'll never know for sure whether that orc tank is going commando under all that plate mail.

AceRetriever

Oh, pleaaase make this an option. I never liked the way shoulders looked, and sometimes you just wanna bare your tats and stripes to the world. :P

For outfits, of course.

To be quite honest I would just hide the pants on all my female chars, can't get any good shorts or skirts around here unless its part of a costume.

I'm afraid I'd do this as well.

In fact, I've already done this, just took off my actual armor and didn't put anything in the legs slot of the outfit.

My problem is related directly with shoulder pads and those hideous crotch / butt / side flappers I just hate flappers :<

Being able to hide the chest piece would be great. What is the point of elaborate tattoos or skins paired with the current outfit setup. You cannot use both together in a reasonable manner and it makes zero sense. The only way to properly display body tattoos or skins right now is to use 1 of like 3 or 4 specific costumes. And that is it, no benefits from the customization of a new outfit if you want to show off these character features.

I don't like the idea of players just running around in underwear, so I'm not up for hiding every piece of armor personally.

Although ZoS could pick and choose, they could also add "invisible gear" for certain slots like chests or shoulders that we could equip without having to change the 'code' or whatever if it would be easier.

IMO only shoulders and guild tabards are the two big slots that really need to be hide-able.

And funnily enough, even ZoS agrees their shoulders are bad - from their Instagram page:



No shoulders on that outfit.

I have read only the tiel and couldn't help myself.

You can make it at the clothing station. XD

frausty

No. Just take your gear off.

Whilst I guess it may be nice cosmetically, in the "spirit" of the game if you are entering in to an area where you need armour, i.e. a dungeon, trial, battleground etc, then surely you should be seen to be wearing it?

I really like the hide helmet option but only use it in cities and my house, simply because from a RP point of view my head would get stoved in without it anywhere else. I haven't used the outfitting facilities in game yet and never use costumes or polymorphs simply because it doesn't fit with the theme of the game - this is only my opinion of course.

Being able to manipulate your armour so it is covered in stars or flowers etc is fine with me as long as the armour piece still looks like heavy, medium or light armour. But that is as far as I would like it ideally

i'd pay crowns to hide the hip flaps that float on my sides

I feel ya. I've got a blacksmith fella that doesn't wear helmets because, even though he knows their value, just doesn't like the feel of it. But I've also got a thief character who doesn't like upper wear because it feel too constricting and that the added weight (however small it may be) slows him down. That's why I excited about the outfit system, since I thought I could finally make them look the part. Then I was disappointed.

Yes! this needs to be a thing!

although adding a motif thats basically empty would mean they wouldn't have to change anything and they could stick it in the clown $tore too
