    B. Since ZoS F'ed everyone over by making a full suit count as 7 items as opposed to the previous 5, thus making it harder to make your character look as you like it makes sense.

    Huh? What do you need 7 pieces for? I have never heard of a skill or passive that needs 7 pieces. Everyone I know uses 5/1/1 for the Undaunted passives and I have never heard of that causing any problems because they are not wearing 7/0/0.

    lol are you serious ? light armor passive"prodigy" and medium armor passive "agility" needs 7 pcs armor to activate

    Not true, a "full" set of armor for this passive is considered five or more pieces.

    then why heavy armor passive"bracing" says with a 5 pcs heavy armor instead of "full"?

    I think it would look cool, just like the cloth change that added the vest for light cloth.

    As far as the armor value and stuff...I think this would only be cosmetic so the armor value would be the same as any other medium helmets but this would look cool for people

    *Especially if the do not show helm made the hood show as taken off but resting on the back and shoulders of a character like a hoodie.

    Because ZOS can't write a clear tooltip to save their life?

    It's been tested before many times. Full set = 5 pieces.

    Let me see..... People are riding about on tigers and goofy looking repetiles, people are killing vampires and werewolves, people ARE playing as vampires or werewolves, but a leather hoodie....that's not realistic enough for you. :wink:

    So leather wouldn't give more protection than cloth ?


    The last time I went bouncing down the road like a human cannonball I'm quite sure it was my LEATHER bike jacket that made sure my skin stayed on my torso instead of being smeered across the tarmac.

    Or maybe my t-shirt is tougher than it looks ?

    A. Because you can craft a hood out of leather IRL
    and
    B. Since ZoS F'ed everyone over by making a full suit count as 7 items as opposed to the previous 5, thus making it harder to make your character look as you like it makes sense. Also, they caved in to the cloth wearers and created Tunics so people wouldn't have to wear dresses, so...

    I completely agree with both of these items. If I wasn't required to wear a full suit of medium to get the benefits from my CP, I would just make my light armor hood like I did before for the look. It's all about the look man! Plus, hoods feel better on my Khajiit's ears. :)

    OMG look its a leather hood..

    Of course we should have leather armor hoods...they had them in Skyrim...

    Skyrim takes place in the 4th Era. ESO in the 2nd Era. There is little reason to believe "hood technology" was equal. :trollface::tongue:

    Those talking about "helmets under hoods" ... YES. That would be pretty damn cool.

    Darkstride Helmet is basically a dressed-up hood that comes in veiled and non-veiled variants.
    It's not a craftable look, but it's a decent medium set.

    Wtf is the deal with hoods anyway? You lose all peripheral vision and (unlike a proper helmet) get no protection in return whatsoever. And they look silly.
    Please stop making requests for game features. ZOS have enough bad ideas as it is!

    I don't think thats relevant in an Elder Scrolls game.
