I think the armors in this game look quite amazing, especially the tier 3 sets and the skins for those as well, however how can you show them off when you have a huge tabard on that covers it all, perhaps make it slimmer or more beefy if you have a full set of plate. The tabard just seems to hide the nice sets of armor people wear.
Everyone looks the same as soon as a Tabard is equipped
Suggestion: Make nation tabards, one look for Slavard, 1 for Khoor and one for Gottlung
And a kind that doesn't cover too much of the armor, like a Sash or something
