The shoulderpads (or cloak) are a little silly on that high elf heritage armour, but I quite like the bustier!

Can I ask what heritage this armor has? Did it come from EQ1 somewhere? I ask because there isn't much about it that suggests "elven" to me. And yeah, the shoulderpads are terrible.</p><p>(Minor nit - the epee picture doesn't open in a new tab. Who accidentally closed the message board? This guy!)</p>

<p>Nice to see the males bringing back the 80s tube top look <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" /></p><p>It's an interesting look, bustier and harem pants...not quite what I would picture for high elf heritage armor but interesting.  I was envisioning the plate/cloth combo the high elves wore when they were in plate armor, at least for the females.</p><p><img src="http://zam.zamimg.com/images/8/8/881038a6ef19fb699344e660bf8ef3d8.png" width="458" height="507" /></p><p><img src="http://zam.zamimg.com/images/1/c/1c098e7e09fa7848a38b78338debf533.png" width="283" height="371" /></p>

[Roslyn]

<p>I love it! Even the crazy shoulders haha. I'm glad they didn't come out with yet another plate look, but I didn't play EQ so I can't speak for the heritage-ness of it. And now the long wait for it to go on sale.</p>

[denmom]

<p>OMG, <strong><em>SKIN!!</em></strong></p><p>Addition: I just logged into game and looked at the pieces.  For females, the tunic is a <em>bustier!!</em>  Omg.../eyes the 1750 price...almost worth it just for that piece...</p><p>I really do wish that the individual pieces from these sets would be sold separately.  I'd gladly pay 3-5 SC to be able to pick and choose which pieces I want rather than buy a whole set, use what I want, then have pieces just sitting in banks not being used.  It really does feel wasteful.</p>

[Josgar]

<p>How is that meant to be for High Elves?</p><p><img src="/eq2/images/smilies/385970365b8ed7503b4294502a458efa.gif" border="0" /></p>

I tried to fix it but the forums hate me. Every time I update and "save" the code it just reverts. /sigh</p><p>Sorry!</p>

[Zabjade]

<p><strong><span style="color: #00cc00;">What I want to see is the infamous Tier'Dal Chaps WITH thong-loincloth and the top they used to have in leather. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></span></strong></p>

heritage armor is horrible for male elves.. not all males want to dress like their sisters!!

<p>I really like the High elf crate.. but OOF! 1750.. I'll wait till it goes on sale!</p><p>It would really.... REALLY be nice if we could get al-la carte items in some of the new shapes.. like the barbarian sports bra and the high elf bustier. Would be totally cool too, if the new errollisi day outfit was cut like this top!</p>

[Enica]

<p>Really like this set. I only have one high elf, and she's a BL, so I don't know if she'll be wearing it, but I bet it will look pretty good on some of my other characters.</p><p>(not the iksar, though, haha)</p>

[Tyrus Dracofire]

<p>Charbryn, hey, i like that cat helm and armor set from eq1, i would like to see kerra heritage armor set soon in eq2 if devs think it would be cool....</p>

[Cloudrat]

<p>I am searching for the right pants to go with that top hehe  I would love a kilt that color. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>EQ2 ... What have you become?</p>

<p>That mahogany vanity set is absolutely beautiful. </p>

[Absyntheea]

<p>While I really do like the outfit.. do you think you could stop making outfits like this look so odd on males? Bustier and "cold shoulder" outfits just look bad on guys. Well, in my opinion anyway.. maybe there's someone out there that likes it. You could have made the top to this look more vest-like...</p>

I'll wear those instead of the male "corset".</p>

[Cyliena]

<p>That is a nice pairup there Rijacki. That gives me some hope for that set. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> I like the upper-armband part of the shoulders but not the big wavy/spikey part; it'd be nice if you could convert the shoulders into a simplistic part with just the armband.</p>

[Anastasie]

<p>I wish it was just the armbands without the silly shoulderpads.  Oh well - hopefully there are some other armbands that will match.  I LOVE the bustier - finally something other than the formal dress model.  I agree though - the price is pretty steep for appearance gear.</p>

[GrunEQ]

<p><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Like some others, I would like the option to buy outfits by the piece.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS; font-size: small;">If only mirrors worked in game for me....stupid graphic bug that isn't resolved yet, I'd probably be right on that set.</span></p>

[CorpseGoddess]

<p>I have to echo the sentiment for the ability to buy pieces of things.  If you added that, I guarantee you'd probably make loads more money.  </p><p>But to add to that...and you knew this was coming, I'm sure...</p><p>BUSTIERS IN BLACK, PLEASE!  Black and silver, black and orange, just plain black...</p>

[darwich]

im a bit upset about this outfit... my wife bought it for her ogre.. comon.. we do NOT need to see that much ogre skin...

[Landiin]

I know that male high elves are a little girlyfied but this is over the top for any male that respects his manhood.

[Skycaster]

<p>Honestly, Did anybody look at this on a Male High Elf? No High Elf Male would be caught wearing this. </p><p> This is why on Heritage day in Felwith all the Males are standing in the shadows and wearing jackets to cover up what they are wearing saying ooohhh its cold outside.</p><p>The incidents of " Accidentally "shooting onself in the foot with an arrow go up 10 fold in the High Elf hospital ward. Well cannot go to this years Heritage Day , HOLE IN THE FOOT ! Dang it ! . </p><p> Always seems something happens to me this time of year, like the time I fell in the Hole, Now that was a bummer but not as bad as wearing the Man Dress on Heritage Day.</p><p>I was strolling in G-Fay a few years back on Heritage day and an Orc Pawn came up and started Laughing at my Man Dress,  kicked me in the shin and ran off.  I one shotted Dvinn a few weeks before that, but I knew the little pawn was right and just didn't have the manhood left to do anything about it.</p><p>Now I am an Acorn Decorator in the tree city.</p>
