Nibenese Noble's Shawled Robe - How to deal with this?

eklhaftb16_ESO

To sum it up: Sneaking glitches. Walking glitches. Running glitches. Sprinting glitches. Mounting glitches. Standing on even slightly uneven terrain glitches. 1080 crowns.

So what would be the best course of action? Demand a refund straight away? Or wait for them to fix it first (for who knows how long, if at all)?

Refund now

I'd get a refund, then re-purchase later if they fix it. No use keeping an item that is clearly suffering from defects.

How to deal with It? Don't buy anything from the store that's any type of robe/dress/gown/anything that goes past the knees.
They all look horrible, they all perform badly and look unnatural and awful when you move or crouch (stretching/bending rather than 'flowing or sliding') and if you use your mount get ready to cringe/LoL because it'll clip through so badly it'll cut your mount in half.

I wonder if the genius who designed this is the same one who made the Breton Hero Costume

LOL!
To be fair, most things in the game look pretty good. I have a lot of gripes with this game but generally visual design isn't one of them.... except for robe-type clothing/costumes/whatever.
They all look horrible when doing anything but standing completely still with weapons sheathed.

Most of the robes works well enough, here the issue is either an rigging bug or simply that the top of the boot shows.
Its obviosly broken as now.

My main issue is shields who grip floats 10 cm out from your hand, why not have an larger grip?
Understand the need for spacing because of bulky armor but an larger grip even if a bit odd is infinite better than floating shields. If it float magicaly why can I not use an two handed weapon with the shield?

You can use a 2H weapon with a shield, that's called a Buckler and it straps to your forearm ;P
The reason for most clipping/floating stuff when it comes to armor and gear, especially things like shields on the back, shoulder pauldrons, hip guards and armor pleats, is quite simply slider bars in character creation.
In games like this, you have two basic options:
0 customization of your character model; everyone has the exact same height, weight, build, etc and are identical save for topical features like facial features and hair color.
OR
You get character sliders and can make your character tall or short, thin or buff, flat or busty, whatever, etc. But you pay for it with inconsistencies of armor clipping or floating because the combination of the millions of possible customization slider setting along with the millions of possible gear and weapon motif combinations, makes it utterly impossible to account for every single scenario.
Many people will choose option 2, but what they don't realize is that each person has their own idea and valuations on their looks: one person might prefer clipping over floating, another might prefer floating over clipping, a third may prefer floating over clipping but only where weapons are concerned but prefer it the other way with armor.
Some people might want a ring or a sheath to hold that sword to their characters thigh despite the fact it clips on 90% of the models, others might rather have a floating sword but then complain when their shoulder pauldrons levitate 4 inches above the curiass.
It's impossible to please everyone xD
In your case, you might get a bigger grip, but someone else would complain that the grip clips through their character's fingers or wrist.
*Shrug*

Thanks for the report on this. We do have some fixes already scheduled for Update 21, but are continuing to work on additional fixes that will help.

Crown store item = official response.

There is something really wrong how indrik stands and runs.

Thank you!

My first thought as well.

I wanted to be appreciative of receiving an official response in general, but the fact that it was for a visual bug on a Crown Store item rather than one of the many performance related threads is pretty disheartening.

Meanwhile, there isn't a single Mac user anywhere that can play the game without the client crashing every 20-30 minutes. No comment. No ETA. Just a mass player exodus.

On the other hand its an very obvious bug unlike performance issues who can be hard to nail down, last for me was 5 minutes to port into HRC trial from Craglorn, very rare for me and none other in group said they had issues.

boots are integrated into costumes and you don't get this on crafted robes no matter that boots I have tried, yes it might happen on some I have not tried.

Everyday 5 + new threads about Cyrodiil Performance and lag. No fix or respond.

Some costume in crown store has a glitch, instant respond.

Really like where this is going.

Who... who weighted this dress, good grief. That’s super bad. At least a fix is coming...
But seriously tho, how did this slipped up into the store in that state???? Like, the one who created this mesh
did they even bothered testing it or just went “lel kewl k done” and round-housed it to the store.

EphemeraCrawford

Give them a chance to fix it

All clothing and armour needs a tune-up by someone who specializes in wearable mesh objects.

I'm very glad that thing has the awful red gems on it to keep me from buying it.

Callous2208

Put it in the closet and forget (buyer beware)

There is a problem where the performance in Cyrodiil is causing my credit card to malfunction and not buy crowns. Please look into this performance issue so I can start spending again.

Worth a shot right?

hmmm, looks like its pretty bad

The Darloc Brae beast mask put out in October 2017 STILL clips through male lips, more than a year later, despite in-game reports and at least one thread put on the forum....

Refund. Because there's a high probability it either won't be fixed for a long time, or will never be fixed.

It also still has that problem where it makes males of certain races have khajiit feet. Looks like somebody just screwed up the leg area altogether lol

eklhaftb16_ESO

Thanks everybody for your insight. Filed a refund request (and asked them to switch it for another item, which I was planning to buy anyway). Shall see what happens now. (EDIT: Got promptly refunded in full, no trouble at all. Props to the support!)

Yes, I probably shouldn't have bought a long skirt in the first place. But well, to my defense, nothing I've seen from ZOS thus far prepared me for this amount of mess. Older skirt models (like daedric light pants) tend to be fairly problem-free (with or without IK), even if they may look kinda funny at times.

I love it. lol

I love your robe lol

I just bought this set today and was quite surprised at the fact that the coronet does NOT show if you have hide helmets on. Which means it can only be worn with costumes (not even outfits unless we don't equip a helmet at all) that don't have a hat to begin with.

I'm probably more upset that the foreheads of a few of my male characters still clip through the hood of the Elven Hero costume.
