I'm not really sure where to post this, so I guess here is as good of a place to start as any.
 
Maybe it's just me, but the Epochos heavy armor shoulders would look really nice - if they weren't floating 8 inches over the top of my actual avatar's shoulders.  On a big avatar, like a Granok, they look exceptionally bad.  But even on smaller frames it's really noticeable, especially from the sides.
 
 
 
The shoulders I'm wearing in the screenshot are the Epochos crafted shoulders, but this issue happens on every shoulder that uses the same model.  It seems like someone was trying to avoid clipping issues a little too overzealously.
 
Is it possible that one of the art folks at Carbine could take a look at these shoulders and see if they could do something to make them fit the character models a bit better?

its an issue for almost everyone really....unfortunately. Though least on my Mechari it just makes her look more tanky.
 
Was brought up a few times in beta on random shoulder pieces to some degree or other. Is it horrible?eh...
Could be better? yeah...

			I got to say that I really digg those shoulders. They remind me of one of the first screenshots I saw of a male undead in valor shoulders, some time during the early WoW stress tests. If they really want to "fix" this "issue", I'd rather see them add something between the shoulder pads themselves and the characters shoulder bone, to make them look 'attached', (much!) rather than see them lowered on the z-axis. My opinion isn't more valid than yours though, so lets high five and have a picnic.

			Yeah no worries Glass - I'd be ok if there was something there, it's just the fact that they're floating that annoys me.  And like I said, it's *really* bad on a big model like a granok male.

			As a draken, I slouch forward. In doing so most big shoulder pads clip into my helm/face. If the were only a little lower, or actually on the shoulder...

			If you've got the addon Galaxy Library installed, you should check those shoulders out on a male Draken with body type 5 (body type 1 being the top left one.. duh). Even I find that to be a bit over the top.
