I really wish they would fix this. It happens because when a paragon stands still, one foot is farther in front than the other, so the armor adjusts too far on one side. I like the paragon armor, but the hiked up skirt just adds to the whole "male stripper" bit

This is how it should look, standing at attention.

It annoys the heck out of me for some reason, had to vent my frustration. And it can't be comfortable for my Paragon...

The Paragon still needs to wear some damn pants.

Or at least not wear a white version of an Aeromancer skirt...

I'm probably gonna make a paragon anyways since they seem to be a cool class and look cool from the waist upwards :/, but please, for the love of god, give them some pants. The angelic armor hauberk looks amazing, but the skirt just doesn't fit. AT ALL. I mean come on.....glittery translucent skirts??! They look like faires, not angels.

On a side note: I absolutely love the glowing eyes, the paragon shield, and the casting animation (it actually looks like they're unleashing some crazy force

I'm not complaining about the skirt, there's plenty of threads for people to go do that. All I'm talking about is the glitch, simple as that. Go to the petition in the Nightfall forum if that's what you want to do.

Not that this is Greek themed or anything, but come on, Brad Pitt in Troy wore a battle-skirt and still kicked plenty of ass.

Exactly. Prophecies had European characters, yet Kyrta was nothing like Europe.

Yeah, the male paragon looks sort of "radiant". That doesnt stop me from making one come factions release.

BTW, anyone else think the elite: "Its only a flesh wound." was taking it a bit too far?

I guess every thread related to Paragons now just gets overridden by a discussion about whether the Paragons should have pants or not....

I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything, but I really didn't make this thread for that, I mainly just wanted to see if this was an isolated glitch or not.

(And By the way, Eragon, aren't you the one who made the "Post ur Killer Paragon" thread? You didn't complain about the paragon in there lol)

Guild wars isn't suppose to be real. Sure each area is inspired by real life culture but they are all a mix. Nightfall, I believe, will look African/Arabian with a few other things thrown in. I think the Paragons are suppose to look like Greek/Roman mythological warrior angels if they lived in africa. :P
