A Completely Reasonable Request
Alright, so, this request may be less reasonable than advertised:
Please flip the faceplates on the Cobalt Armor sets down like all the NPCs and art show! Keeping them up mostly destroys the appeal of the helms. I've wanted the armor from those NPCs for the longest time, but not like this.
Of course, I've only gotten up the Mighty Cobalt Armor so far and have no idea what the Azure Guardian Armor looks like yet. It could very well have a flipped-down faceplate, which would be nice. I get the feeling you guys have something against completely hiding the faces though.
I agree, though it would most likely take a lot of extra work on the devs' part. It seems all faceplates for all helms are in the up position (with the exception of the pith helms of course) now that I think about it.

Going down when you're inside depths, and up when you're in towns, like attack mode would be nice!

Actually, after checking, I think there are two modes to the helm.
There are two model files in the nose resource directory, anyway.
I'm not sure if that's where the helmet comes from or if the alternate model is up or down, though.
I like it up, I really think it looks cool that way.
But there should be an option to have faceplates up or flipped down.
