And they could be for intimidation. You're telling me if some guy came at you with a wolf head or something as a helmet, you wouldn't be thrown off guard?
Right up till someone shoots if off his head or takes him down with an arrow/gun shot to the face as the bones would shatter, making it into a self made weapon.

Because that wasn't the point of it.
The point was to scare the enemy. Like the immortals of the Persian army with the bags over their heads. They impaired vision and made it hard to see, but made every one of them look the same, so it seemed like they were all the same person.
Shock and awe

And now a day, if people did that there would be a momentary pause not out of fear, but from confusion...till you know, weapons start firing again. Even back then, the 'savages' who tried that, with a firm belief that the war paint on their bodies would make them invincible, learned the hard way when the Spanish tore them apart.

I'm starting to think Mogging is a bad idea : / the thought of people getting off on their belf females in silly tiny armour sets abhors me just a little.
just my opinion though!
People have doing this since 2004, and in other games, what people fantasize about or do in front of their computer is none of your business or concern.

But we still use intimidation tactics. Modern armies will all dress in the same combat uniform. It makes them all look mostly the same, especially special-operations units, who even hide their faces.
You don't win wars by killing every last enemy troop. You scare the piss outta them until they give up.

Sadly that doesn't work in the Azeroth universe, since 9 times out of 10, the Enemy are the living horror and aren't going to be spooked because we Heroes of Azeroth have horns, bones and the rest on the armour.

Though I'm having second toughts about using it for mogging, I'm a tank, and its very unrealistic that I'm actually protecting my group in what basically is a metal thong. Doesn't look very realistic at all.Well realism goes out the window when you're fighting dragons with magic while flying on gryphons.
Also, all female armor works on
this principle
, and of course
this.
not quite.
A mage wearing a very revealing robe doesn't need any explanation, they are mages, the protection they need is not the physical sort, they could very well fight naked and still kick ass because their "magic" keeps them alive.
The same principle holds for all other spellcasters, as well as Assassins, or ranged fighters.
But a tank is meant to take damage, to protect others, and to do that your body has to be covered from head to toes. Having a patch of cleavage is like having a big paint sign that says "ARCHERS SHOOT HERE" rite above your head. Any exposed body part is a body part vulnerable to stab wounds, arrows, or slashing wounds.
it just doesn't "click" with my way of thinking to have a tank on a coconut bra' and a metal thong.
So, while my Blood elf female DK has a tank spec and a DPS spec, I "may" transmog my DPS set to a platemail bikini (I already have 6 sets of armor for transmogrifying, so what the hell) for the luls once in a while, but my tanking set will be full plate ALL.THE.TIME

Hilarious.
Man this thread got angsty and serious. Suspension of disbelief people, it's a video game. Just enjoy the comedy value of your metal thong clad tank not being turned into a meaty pin cushion.
Clearly the solution is just more stupid metal thongs for
male characters
. Then at least the silliness isn't gender biased.

SOME videogames are unbiased with the striperrific armor. God of War featured a topless pantless kratos for the entire duration of the game. All he ever wore were some boots, bracers, and a small skirt. But yes, striperrific armor is very rare on males.

Clearly we should start a petition to Blizz for more man-thongs in WoW.

well, thecnically, the green plate armor sets from vasjhir quest rewards are very unique due to 1 reason:
They are very revealing on male toons, but cover completely female toons (unusual I know :P) but its only the chest piece.

Exactly why we need MORE MAN-THONGS!

More distractions are not a good idea because it is enough of a problem to not stand in the fire sometimes.... (Unless it is for the achievement for DeathWing. )
I hope people understand that 4.3 will affect dps in a negative way and encourage even more boys hoping for a online gf.
:)I find this highly doubtful.
After like a week the novelty will wear off and no one will give a !@#$ what you're wearing anymore.

Tanking in a metal thong and bra, skimpy bikini style, is lame i have to admit and agree. But for plate dps and pally healers it wouldnt be as bad. Still a little lame, but not upsettingly lame. But i play orc male warrior as main and forsaken dk male alt, no bikinis for me. And my hunter troll alt is female, but Troll female toons are so hot that bikini-style gear would make the world (of warcraft) implode.
