Helmets for Dragonborn question

I don't have dragonborn, so i'm asking this question:

Can dragonborns wear any other helmets in the game besides the helmets in the dragonborn pack?

Specifically i would like to know if the dragonborn can wear the skull mask (w/hood) in the warlock pack?

    They can "wear them" and get the stats from the helmet, but the helmet will not be visible.
    I wasted five million AD promoting the Foundry.

    Helmets don't show for them but they can wear them...

    As others have said, Cryptic did some real quality work for this $70 race by not making any helmet graphics for them beyond the armor in the dragonborn pack.

    And lots and lots of clipping even with their own included fashion armor sets.

    A female Dragonborn Control Wizard in their fashion clothing....wow that's just a massive mess of clipping.

    Have you checked your graphics settings? There's no way it's Cryptics fault, it must be yours. At least that's what I hear... ;)

    Yeah - right - typical rumor mill BS. Here's the clipping they are talking about - except graphic settings are set to high, not MINIMUM to create the clipping:

    @OP Dragonborn heads are WILDLY shaped compared to every other race. So people who like to talk "quality" levels and other stuff like that are better to allow people to think they don;t have a clue how things work rather than opening their mouths and removing all doubt.

    How many existing helms in the game now? Each and every single one of them would have to have new version created just for the Dragonborn.

    Would you rather have the Devs doing that, or working on new content or fixing bugs?

    You decide.

    I stood next to a female DB in that outfit and noticed something...the shoulder clip that has been previousluy discussed is dependent on where that character is in their breathing cycle. The shoulders rise and fall...and in this race very noticeably...and the armor seems not to follow the movement successfully. And no, it wasn't my graphics. I assure you, it wasn't my graphics.

    You need to can the condescension as well. The people complaining are consumers...and have every right to voice their displeasure with something they purchased.

    Ah yes, you're the guy who doesn't believe in clipping.

    Except:

    This is your picture.

    Wow, look at all that clipping on that picture of yours. I guess you should turn up your graphic settings, eh?

    Also, more clipping (Dragonborn Wizard):

    I never said I don't believe in clipping. I am saying that your "friend's" example is a bogus one because the graphic settings are either set to minimum to maximize the clipping effect or his computer is from the 1990's. It's also amazing that you seem to be the only one in the game complaining so hard about such clipping and even your "friend" who is having the problem originally (according to you in another thread) isn't even seen in these forums.

    And since it is the exact same mesh in my image as your "friend's" image, it's pretty clear your "friend" needs help because your "friend" has a local issue, not a global game issue. This is obvious, or else how can a screw-up by Cryptic that makes such bad clipping, not be a screw up on my screen? People are not stupid, they can easily see what you are doing.

    However you do make one good point: your "friend's" problem clipping example is exactly what existing helms on Dragonborn would look like, which is why they are hidden when worn. As for the 'horrible' clipping you highlight in my images, you may as well quit 3D video games altogether if that bothers you so much and go back to Pac-Man.

    You are trying so hard I am compelled to be embarrassed for you. It's also painfully obvious that you don't know how 3D modeling and mesh work, but that's okay. However, because the whole argument is adolescent at best, I'll have to treat it as an adolescent conversation: Since it apparently is so important to you that you "win" - then fine, you win, I lose, congratulations.

    He is also the guy who thinks that not making helmets for Dragonborn is not lazy from Cryptic but a sign of quality as he does not like helmets anyway...
    And the guy who refuses to use an actual CW for his "there is no clipping" pictures even after he was called out by someone showing him how bad they clip.

    I can confirm that the new draconic helmet does NOT work for Dragonborn.
    What a joke that even new items wont work.

    Not going to rehash this argument again. Already closed down one thread for the argument it became, and it's turning into the exact same argument here.
