#TrammelIsComing

I purpose that Masks & Hats get their own layer on your paper doll. Currently a leather cap, helmets, mask, and hats are on the same layer. What this means is that you cannot wear any of these in combination. To be era correct, this would need to stay the same, but since we are not era exact, I purpose a small change. I have seen this on other shards. This is totally an aesthetic thing and has NO bearing on AR or any game mechanic.

Simply put: masks and hats should be able to be layered over a leather cap, or one another. Like a bone mask and wizard hat. I am NOT recommending any of the sort for metal helmets for obvious reasons. As stated above it is an aesthetic thing to allow for flair to all your chars, not just the tamers and bank sitters.

IMO, two slots would be the easiest (and safest) implementation: one for AR items (helmets, caps) and one for non-AR (hats, masks).

Hell yeah, I want to wear a bandana on my plate helm!

Does the client that we use have the ability to recognize it properly?

I know its easy to code up and others have done it, but just curious on the client-end. Anyone know what clients they've been using with the extra layers?


P.S. I'd look into making all clothing a separate layer from armor and making sashes their own layer if we go down this path.

Simply because i can never correctly choose between bandana and mask. for reals.

Make it cost 10,000 plat

or being able to wear kilts over leather skirts not just leggings (sorry i don't think thorny hips tyvm!)

I completely agree! This would allow for even more uniqueness and creativity. Love the idea!

I think this is a great idea,
Only mask exception should be mask of the wilds imo

sure why not lets nerf the pvp dexxer even more.

I just wanna be able to wear pants under my chain leggings!

Please elaborate?

I do find that rather annoying that I can't put my plate legs on over some short pants. Chainmail I can sort of understand because they're so skinny-jean style but still should not be a problem to ya know....have cloth under your metal armor.

some people choose not to wear an armor piece on their head in favor of a 0 armor mask. if you can wear both then everyones armor will go up. its so minor though but it is a minor nerf to anyone using a weapon. do not mistake my posts here for me caring either, i don't play a dexxer i was merely stating something not many may know about.

It's a fair concern for sure. Those random headshots really hurt.

That is a good point. I still voted yes, just because at the end of the day I feel like it's such a small nerf that it wouldn't be noticeable. But then again I am out of my mind so yeah.

Is there a % for a head shot? Or am I gullible?

I think it's like 6%, if I recall correctly. It's slim for sure, but there's always a chance!

There's a full breakdown for % chance to hit 'area' of the target, like chest, arms, legs, head.

That's actually pretty cool. I'll find out when I PK you soon then . Is there a place I can look up these stats Blaise? Hope all is well btw

Haha, good luck sir. I'm almost never without a full suit in the field. I keep the vanity for hanging around town and doing business in game.

Doing well enough, thanks for asking. Hope to see you in game soon.
