    As someone who loves the Gladiator style of armor (Heavy plate arm, and barechested straps) I'm really hoping for the option of toggling visibility armor. That would make this Dreadnought happy!

    I don't think I ever wanted to hide my chest armor in an MMO. Shoulders, yes, Helmets, for sure. But never said, this chest armor is so hideous I would rather be topless.

    I'm less interested in a toggle necessarily than I am armor skins or gear options with a berzerker/gladiator look. But a toggle works, I'm assuming tattoos will be a thing with any modern mmo for character customization.

    have they mentioned anything about being able to toggle off/hide the appearance of your chest armour so it shows only bare chest whilst maintaining the stats for those of us that want to play something along the lines of a slayer dawi/ barbarian?

    While they are maybe not exactly what you are looking for, these are two cosmetics for this game that already exist that come close.

    Again, not exactly what you are after, however, the reason I am pointing them out is because so far we have seen a very small fraction of the looks that will be available by launch, and even at that point they will be constantly adding new cosmetics to the game.

    So, while it may be that you can't hide a piece of armor, you are likely to be able to find a look that works reasonably well for you.

    it's not about hiding hideous armour it's about having your character look a certain way, in my case: 1ababcaaa75d9ede40355d089d462a3a.jpg

    Take this 675px-Wrath%27s_Legacy.png
    put it on a dwarf, turn off the helmet (which is something I believe we are able to do with all cosmetics) and you are actually damn close already.

    Sadly, that specific look is no longer available, but that does mean that you know there will be something else similar to it eventually.

    This is about as skimpy as I'd like without this game getting ridiculous or going into full-blown TERA Online creepy fanservice territory.

    yeah i could go with that, hopefully there are options ingame that won't require real money though.
