I'm not trying to be annoying/mean/argumentative.Just pointing out that its pointless and would be a waste of the Dev's time working on that.(would require them to re-work allot of armor if they did the cuirass change).

I'd rather them get the skills balanced instead of wasting time on an un-needed armor change.

but with the original gloves you wouldnt be able to tell the difference its just changing the spot where cuirass meets gloves so that the old sets work fine and the common gloves are fine as well

Yes,but then you end up extending the gloves and making it look odd/silly..just picture it.

you wouldnt have to if you just generally extended the cuirass.

thats the beauty of mesmers, for them gloves mean's just that, gloves

Male Mesmer w/ norn armor dyed black with chaos gloves and the freaky looking bug mask, the mesmer from Heart of Ashes and Dust had it for awhile, very sexy

As I have said before - the only way to fix them:

Mesmers FTW. i mean really they have those coats that cover that part of it so all you see is the hands.

face it - Mesmers just have better fashion sense. You can teach a Wammo to fight, but you can't teach him how to dress.

No, its the "Chaos Gloves" not "Chaos Sleeves"

they could fix it by changing all the cuirass's to include the respective elbow to wrist segment, and cut the hands to be restricted from the wrist down.....like the mesmers are now

All the gloves look terrible on any class, regardless of gender, who are wearing armor that goes to the elbows. Even in the example pictures of what supposedly looks "good".

They only look good on mesmers, and with sleeveless armor (female necromancer's with Vabbian, for instance, look good).

But I don't think it's ever been about looking good. I mean, how many elementalists with the horridly ugly FoW armor, the horridly ugly dread mask (not expensive anymore, time to rethink your vanity armor set) and chaos gloves do you need to see before that becomes apparent to you?

Last time I checked, it's up to the player to make good looking mixed armor combination's, not Anet.

There are a lot of armor 'bugs' regarding things like clipping with various capes/masks. I'd prefer they fixed those before changing something else. It is personal taste, and although you may not like it, that doesn't mean nobody does. Perhaps the people who designed them like they way they look. I only like the Mesmer Chaos Gloves as they are the only ones that are gloves instead of sleeves. So I just don't get them for my other characters.

There are a lot of options, choose one you do like. If there isn't anything you do like, too bad.

Yeah, I kinda hoped this thread would be about the clipping issues. A lot of hairstyles don't work with the glasses and blindfold, and some armor clips badly into the icy dragon gloves. Whatever they're called. I'll /sign for a bit of a clipping issue fix before this. Everyone knows what chaos gloves look like by now. We've all seen plenty on both genders and every class. You can tell if they're going to look like hell with your current armor.

While we're on the subject, though... I'd kind of like to be able to change the type of glove. For instance, I'd like to see the hand-only mesmer glove available for other classes. I think that'd look a lot nicer on my derv or ele than half an arm of glowing BS.
