Oh yes we need capes and hoods+armor. No one post that stupid "no capes" gif... I freaking hate that gif.

Unfortunately, we're very unlikely to see much in the way of long capes and cloaks simply because the clipping is outrageous unless they use really expensive cloth physics or use some bizarre weighting to tie it to character movement (which always looks cheap IMO).

A bit unfortunate that even in 2015 we still have.. literally no games with really credible clothing physics, but them's the technological breaks.

Capes/back items are the only thing DCUO does right, and its a shame that pile of a game can do it and every other MMO says its impossible.

I like armor. I've made some armor. I like running around in armor. I have favorite kinds of armor and for the most part they are represented in FFXIV, but I would like to see some lamellar armor.

It looks great.

And can be made of a wide variety of materials.

I imagine if they ever make Samurai, it will include lamellar in the AF. At least, I hope.

Mexican Style Hand Wraps - As a boxing and MMA fan, this is something I would love to see for Monks and Pugilists. The hand wrap is functional, and in my opinion just looks badass. I just got a pair to wear under my gloves for heavy bag training, and I love these things.

Come on, SE. After putting in the Koenig and Ares sets from FFXI, you know you wanna.

I forgot this. In the trailer it looks like a "Cloak" item, he wears it with the hood down and up (/visor?). When up there is a mouth cover.... oh gods if you could dye it too I would soil myself.

We've got these, I'm happy to say, or at least, we've got something similar. And they're dyeable! ^^
