Chosen of Anu/Padomay Outfits

Arcturus · June 18

We shouldn't be forced to wear 5 pieces of these sets to get the additional VFX, owning them should be enough. When unlocked we should be able to just toggle the VFX in the Outfit Station.

LunaFlora · June 18

yes it would be awesome if we had effect slots in the outfit station!

there are effects from the Class sets too and i want to use the effect without the armour

React · June 18

The VFX are cool, I would have bought those as a standalone item of some kind. I'm not going to buy and use 5 items of a specific outfit style for them, though.

danko355 · June 18

Weapons don’t count towards the VFX, so you really have to wear 5 body pieces. Why not 3 body pieces plus weapons? Is this intentional? @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin

AScarlato · June 18

I managed to get 5 of these and I found having a bright circle behind my head to be a bit much to have out at all times. It's pretty neat though.

meekmiko · June 18

Does anyone know if you can throw a costume over the outfits and still get the special effects from them? (the halo thingy and the cape thingy)
Or does the costume just override the special effects entirely?

MafiaCat115 · June 18

I'm curious; do these new visual effects follow the same behaviors as the class set auras? I outlined everything in this post here https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/691238/while-class-sets-are-getting-love#latest . I've been trying to get answers about the weird way the auras work for quite some time, but haven't got any answers about my inquiries. Hopefully we get some word back here.

I went to test this just now, and sadly the costume covers up the glows.

Ugggggggggggh, sad :'(
THANK YOU for testing!

One more thing if you could possibly test for me if you have them. IF you hide the new outfit style's helmets using the "Hide Your Helm" in the Collections tab under Appearance -> Hats, not the one at the Outfit Station, does it keep the effect or does that also make it disappear?

Morvan · June 18

I wish they'd turn those effects their own thing, I personally hate most of them, especially the soulcleaver one.

Sorry I don't have the helmet, i have all the other pieces. I didn't like the helm and RNG didn't give it to me, but hopefully someone else can test this!

tsaescishoeshiner · June 18

I'm happy that it's limited to needing to wear the armor, as I don't want ESO to trend towards being a word full of cool pretty glowy effects everywhere.

Arcturus · June 18

Yeah, even before class

It already is.

I am curious if you outfit your companion with 5 pieces, will the FX show?

I think an effect / aura slot in Collections or Outfit station would be fantastic.

It's a shame because I really love the effects the armor styles generate but I'm not a huge fan of the armor itself.

ExoY · June 19

Controversial oppinion, but this Fx effect should be optional even when wearing all pieces of this armor.
I personally really like the Anu armor, but cant were it all because i dont want the Fx effect.... raids already have enough visual effects as it is, and it looks weird in combination with some skills that change your appearance.

So yeah. some sort of Fx equippment slot would be awesome.
It could still be tied to a condition like "only works if the Fx effect and 3 pieces of the corresponding armor"

SilverIce58 · June 19

I don't understand why they couldn't just be a part of the chest piece. Make it so the effect sits on the back like the bags and barrel do for other motifs/costumes. Having to equip 5 pieces for an effect is annoying and I'm definitely [probably] not going to use 5 pieces for a look.

Edit: also I'd love to see an effect slot in the gear where you can show effects from sets you've collected.

Looks like it does - I have to think about if I want to do this to myself and others lol.

100% agree. I like the style but would love to toggle it on and off. I already put away the Anu pony pet as my eyes are hurting lol.

I have the helmet and unfortunately if you use the hide helmet the effect WILL go away. You have to have all five pieces actively showing for it to work (no hide helmet, and no costume over it).

Decimus · June 19

At the very least if the goal is to avoid having too many VFX on characters (which could affect performance) the threshold for enabling the VFX should be at 4 armor slots, 5.

That way you'd still limit the VFX to one style at a time since we have 7 Armor slots in the game, but it'd allow for a lot more freedom when making unique outfits.

It'd also be good if the requirements for triggering the visual effect were communicated somewhere in game, as I can imagine a lot of players probably getting confused as to why they don't see the visual effect after equipping the helmet or chest of the style for example.

What about the Kollopi Essence or Goblin Gem disguises?

Yes, please just make the effects a slot where you can put one, regardless of what you're actually wearing. Can even still restrict the class style ones on a per class basis so no Aerie's Cry effect on a sorc or Corpseburster on a nightblade.

Tested both, and both are no. They will both hide the effects as well.

I was in the bank in Riften and another player had this on, it was blinding.

Twohothardware · June 20

Agreed. I would of purchased the the VFX by itself. Not interested in wearing the 5 piece armor all the time.

This is why I prefer the Padomay armor effect. Much more easier on the eyes.

Plus as a bonus, if you add the Padomay mask with the cape, it WILL make you feel like a super hero!

That's not a good option, because some like me quite like the look of the chest piece and don't want the big glowing symbol.

Same. I like the armor pieces themselves, but am not a fan of the big glowing halo.
I would have prefered it if I could toggle it off, or something like that.

AScarlato · June 22

I wanted to provide some feedback as to this glow along with the request of the toggle -

Is it possible to change the "glow" effect so it doesn't cover your screen in first person mode? I was in first person and it has a swirl of light that then hazes over most of your screen at all times, which makes the glow even more intrusive.

BloodstainedFay · June 24

Whilst having these auras as its own slot would be better, I would be happy as is if you could AT LEAST see them while having a costume equipped- as currently costumes disable it. However, in the OUTFIT STATION, costumes do not disable the visual effect- so this is clearly possible
