Make topless outfits rarer

[Nihm]

currently too many robes seem designed to show too much breast on a female.
 
Flashing tits is fine for people who deliberately want that and do indeed want to show off that their female pc has large tits.
 
When every second wizard or monk robe looks like it was made for a stripper not only is it stupid, but takes away from those few who would actually choose it to emphasize their pcs attractiveness.
 
Pcs who do not actually have the nice tits shown by the graphics, or who have them but wouldn't want to show them, have too few choices.
 
Latest culprit I've noticed is the Caermyn Reforge wizard robe.  A wizard is a bookworm, why would they walk around with cleavage exposing what they probably don't even have.
 
It should be the outfits with enormous cleaveage that are the minority, not the ones that actually cover anything.

There's a very simple explanation, which is that the distraction element of cleavage is in fact what adds to the Armour Class or saves of any given outfit. True story! Or more accurately, that if you went and had a look in the toolset you'd realise the problem. There's only a few robe and armour designs that don't have the massive design flaw of Exposed Region Directly Over Heart for female PCs. Of those, quite a few are the generally ugly ones. The alternative to the current setup is to restrict variety in outfit design because Bioware designers never took classes in Armourer 101, or have a separate female outfit barrel. I'd agree that faction uniforms should try and avoid this, but if you put that as a priority, it's hard to make an outfit that looks good. The torsos that cover up PCs of both genders are the blocky "padded armour" ones mostly.

Finally, Nihm...
Perhaps go and have a cold shower, yeah? ;)
