Hat removal while crafting

I just noticed that my one character who wears a hat removes it when crafting. I don't recall that being the case before. Does anyone know when that started happening?

I haven't tested to see if helmets do the same when not hidden, but I did check other hats, and the same happens with those.

    has happened to all my toons for quite a long while. haven't bothered to investigate though if an addon might cause it.

    This has happened on my crafter (high elf sorc if that matters) for years, every single time I'm at any crafting table. He wears a hat too (not armor).

    99% sure it happens on all of my characters, but they all wear hats.

    Your nerf suggestion is dumb. Learn to counter other players instead of having the game rebuilt to your ability level.

    I don't think it was that long ago that it wasn't happening. I recall the brow-wiping animation looking a bit odd with a hat on, so perhaps that was why it changed?

    Cool. It's a bug then. Or working as intended *shrugs*
    Always thought it was a bit odd though.

    All of my characters have always removed their hats, helmets, or helms when they interact with a crafting station.

    But as you can see by looking at other players who are crafting, everything is strictly on your side; no one else sees what you see. They don't see your character remove his or her hat, helmet, or helm. They don't see your character pounding away with a hammer and pausing every so often to wipe his or her brow with an arm; they don't see your character stick a finger into his or her cooking pot, taste it, and nod in approval; they don't see your character pick up an item being worked on and look at it this way and that.

    I would just like to stop falling all over the crafting station once I level up to 50. I reached 50, i am in crafting shape.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I noticed it last year after my crafter became a vampire. It might have happened before that but it wasn't as obvious.

    PS4 here: I thought that was intentional... (my headgear is always removed). Don't want it that way though!

    It makes sense they remove their helms and hats to ensure that nothing obstructs their view while performing such delicate craftsmanship.

    Hats are removed when crafting, but I don't remember if it's always been that way. BUT I have a screenshot from 2018 showing when a hat failed to completely remove itself. hahahaha

    Why are hats removed when crafting in a city but not at your home?

    Not sure what constitutes a 'hat', but my toons' tiaras don't disappear when crafting.
