Tusks, plus lack of shoes, always work well with gear! Tusks make everything look better.
What bothers me about the male Troll model is the skinny limbs looking like crap in a lot of gear. You need to get bulky gear to make the character look good. I always wanted the option to use the "burly" Troll model we see on many of the mob NPC Trolls. They look fantastic.
For both genders of Trolls, I like the female model a lot more, but love the male animations. The idle crouch is the best idle animation in the game
