    According to the folklore in which werewolves were based of for the game, the werewolf, while not in beast form during full moon, is a common individual, with no signs of being cursed.

    While i voted no, i only did that for the sake of people who might want to still look like a vampire while wearing the costume. There certainly should be an option for vampire players to appear normal (a special costume created just for that purpose or so).

    Since we don't have a toggle for skin and eye effects, I'd like for them not to fix this bug so we have a way to look good... HOWEVER if they do add a toggle as I think they should, I'd like it to be fixed for those who like the vampiric appearance.

    Then we all get exactly what we want, no harms done.

    I agree this would be the best option. Hopefully the tease Jessica slipped a while back actually comes to fruition and they give us a toggle.

    Might be cool if stages still effected your eyes in some way...

    Meanwhile I kinda hope they don't fix the current costume behavior until toggle is a thing.

    Hey i got a vamp and i love the look. Their are hoods and helmets that can hide the face completely or reveal just the eyes. If you for whatever reason want to be a vamp but hate the look use that cover up.

    But personally i want to know if other people around me are bloodsuckers or not anyway.

    this is for pvp it allows us to see if this person is a vamp so we can use spells/attachs to focus on their weakness same for werewolf they go huge werewolf form to let us know.

    Except you can cover yourself up 100% as a vampire as is with armor and costumes... I do see the pvp argument but we have the means to hide our condition in-game already, so I feel like this isn't going to change anything. Funnily enough I'd actually be inclined to show off more of my character's vampiric appearance than I do now if I had some control over it.

    Please ZOS, fix the bug, but in its place introduce the illusion school of magic, so that if people really do want to look like something different then they can actively do something about that.

    The idea of a passive toggle or costume gets on my nerves when far more interesting options/systems could be implemented that could have the same effect while actually adding some depth to the game.

    I wish there was a special item of sort in collectibles that can be toggled active or deactivated depending on whether or not you want to be seen as a vampire.

    Doubt it will ever happen though.

    I wasn't talking about Elder Scrolls Lore, you know...

    Anyways, we are discussing a bug. Bugs should be fixed, period. Asking for visual changes for vampires is a completely different matter.

    This is a complete misnomer. The "visual cue" for vampirism has always been completely unnecessary and has ZERO effect on game mechanics in PvP. It is EASILY covered completely by MANY armors so has ALWAYS been able to be "hidden" visually in PvP. There are both add-ons for PC AND abilities/skills that will allow you to identify vampires AND werewolves. It is INTENDED that you need to use the abilities (I view the add-ons as an exploit but apparently ZOS does not agree as they have never done anything about them) provided by the skills if you want to be able to identify them.

    Polymorphs should hide it but other costumes that show the eyes should not. Also I want to combine hats and polymorphs, I was kinda disappointed that I couldn't wear Cadwell's hat with the skeleton costume or the pumpkin spectre.

    Or maybe remove all signs when fully fed.

    When I was a vampire I wanted to look like one. I don't want to hide it and if you want to hide it you can always feed. That is what the stages are for. If you havent fed you cant pop your illusion. That is the immersion and it is fine like that, imo.

    I like it, although I would prefer some manner of potion (obtained via quest) that did the hiding of features.

    I will keep the weird skin on my vampire if my vampirism actually effects quests. Why do I have to go get vampire blood from that hot spring region when I am ALREADY A FREAKING VAMPIRE?

    I would really like a "human makeup" style skin that makes my character look like a normal human again, but then works with my costumes I've purchased in the crown store. I like the vampire perks but I *loathe* the way they look lol

    I think the costumes and disguises shouldn't alter your skin color, though, so I voted as such.
