The Syndicate Sigils Problem

[Garrett_Ryxx]

So, uh, we all love Fashionframe, and I think most of us will agree that Sigils are undeniably the thing that bothers us the most while creating a look for our frames. I do want the Standing, but the Sigils are so damn ugly and off-putting, goddamn. Doesn't help that I rep Steel Meridian (god that +15% Sigil is the stuff of nightmares).

Is there any chance for a 'hide' option? Or perhaps a rework of the whole rep thing? Will we ever be saved from this torment?

And the fact that we can't really hide them trough slider and color tinkering is so off-putting. I try to hide them behind Syandanas as much as I can, but hiding them all successfully would mean wearing only "full/significant back coverage" syandanas, something that is not always possible.

A good example would be Nyx, a frame which has this weird "hump" in her waist area that affects the syandana. Her deluxe skin also suffers from this, but since there is no physical hump we only see the invisible effect on the Syandana.

Another good example would be Umbra, a frame I use no syandanas on either of the 3 tabs. His scarf looks weird on any syandana I've tried, and since the scarf passes as a syandana on itself I don't mind leaving the real item out for him. But as far as sigils go, specially the R5 New Loka one, it's quite annoying to see it plastered on his back - scarf or not - and quite visible.

I hear that the scarf will be a toggle pretty soon, which is very nice to be sure. But not a fix by any means since I do plan on leaving at least one of my appearance tabs with scarf only. And the Syandanas that fit Excal the most might not be full-back ones, so even then sigils may remain an issue for fashion.

I wouldn't say Sigils are what bothers me the most tho that was also before I had more than one Sigil I wanted on my frames. 

Since out of the gate you are down one of the two Sigil slots with a Syndicate Sigil..... you really only have one open slot and that's pretty not great IMO. Honestly its the reason I passed up on the Garuda pack for the blood Sigil cause ..... where am I going to put it? 

Honestly I'd prefer it if they went the rout they did with Focus Schools and just let us choose our Syndicate at the loadout level sans the Sigil. Leave those for people who like the looks but don't obligate people to wear them.

There should be an option in the syndicate standing screen to be affiliated with the syndicate we want. The bonus gain should be granted while sigils are acquired, but without the need to equip them...
