Why does blizzard always nerf skimpy clothing?

Check out wowhead “Chitinoid Greaves” It still has a screenshot of the old way it looked, now look at the model viewer. They randomly attached a belt to the pants and it looks kind of weird. I feel like they did this because they used to be low rider pants that borderline showed crack. Once they add something to they game I’d appreciate it if instead of modifying the pants I was using in a tmog, and make a new version the one they changed it to.

They still havent fixed shortstack shoulder slots that are randomly flying a foot off their body. Better worry about my character wearing lowrider pants though cant have that.

My biceps still destroy some shoulder armors… I’d post examples but:

This is the only item with that name that I could find, and there aren’t any screenshots.

There is definitely one picture showing on that page even though it says there are no screenshots.

It’s the same pants that the model viewer shows but as the OP said that one has additional stuff on it.

Really? thats the right item and for me it says no screenshots but shows a picture of the old pants. The top part above the brown part thats blue and gold didnt exist before

It looks like they forcibly attached a random belt to it

If these are indeed the right pants, they were never skimpy to begin with, even without the “belt” attached. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

it just showed more belly and lower back than most pants. For plate look at https://www.wowhead.com/item=25003/bloodfist-legplates

From behind they very obviously filled it in to cover cheeks

I still wouldn’t consider that skimpy. :sweat_smile: The bloodfist legplates? Sure, that fits the bill.

I just wish that more pants sat below the belly button on some races. Like seriously why does my horde demon hunter have to have every pair of pants hiked up like he’s from 1920?

Well you’re right, that the original pants I was talking about WEREN’T skimpy but thats the only reason I imagine them even changing them. Remember the bowl of fruit paintings?
