    Default I want to see more skin!

    Er, well, more skins anyway.

    And what I mean by skins I mean by something other than the leather top and bottom that must be terribly uncomfortable for a "nude" character.

    I would like to see pants, shirts, things of that nature.

    And then I'd like a /showarmor off option.

    Why?

    Well, mostly for Sorcs/Wizards and Rogues... but it would be acceptable for others, especially dex based fighters and rogues. Or even a barbarian possibly.


    The essence of it is that it allows us a great deal of freedom in how our character looks, and that will certainly increase our "attachment" to those characters.

    If I could put an Evocation Sorceror in a red tunic with black pants I'd think it'd be much cooler than running around in a dress.


    However, armor will go over these new skins and so a /showarmor off option would allow us to show off our designed skins and go from there.

    It's not a dress, it's a robe. Also, in a lot of areas the style and intricacies of a caster's robes helps you recognize their level of accomplishment within their chosen arts.

    I agree with the OP and I am in full support.

    My rogue wants breeches and a tunic.

    clothes have been asked for many times, as many dex based characters having to wear robes and RPers hate wearing armor while sitting down in the tavern. It looks like we will have to wait till monks to get anything that resembles non armor that isnt a dress.

    But congrats Dingo a well thought out idea

    If I could design my clothing look I'd be all for a /showarmor off command. One of the things I always liked about CoH is that you would see some nice looking costumes and could design your own "look". I have won numerous costume contests in CoH.

    Yes, agree completely.

    Just got my Way of the Assassin Rogue to 10th level.
    Since his DEX is over 30, no armor is worth it, and he ends up using robes (Moble of Spell Resistance his current "casual wear.")

    Now...how much street cred is a fearsome Assassin character going to generate by sneaking through the shadows on the way to his next kill all dolled-up in a freakin' light blue dress?

    If you are wearing armor it should show up. (Even though I use the /showhelmet off at times, it shouldn't be allowed either)

    If anything we should also be seeing the boots, cloaks, etc, that we also wear.

    I do think it would be a good idea to provide the option to create some robe equivilent clothing.

    Alright Dingo! Here is something I can get behind!!!

    Thought out, benefits just about everyone, and posted pretty well to boot!

    I would not mind having the ability to have clothes for my characters that wear them, ie casters. IMO, lil silly for a FP wearing tank to be walking about in pants and a shirt, but hey, each his own.

    And I'll second the suggestion for showable Cloaks!

    That particular trainer is a chick. Dunno what to say that your first thought went to the Halfling male on the other side of the ward...

    Must agree...

    I'd love to see slacks, mix n'match clothing sets... enchanted pants and other things...

    ...hell I'd love a Fluffy Bunny Suit like the Anyanka wore in Buffy... that would so rule
