Glamour Dresser is Awful

[ChewieFlakes]

Why can't I retrieve my items back?

Why aren't there enough plates?

Why can't I use plates outside of a stupid inn or at least use it at my house?

Why can't I use event items or other certain items?


Perhaps you could outsource a project to fix the glamouring system to some zoo animals instead, so we can have something better?

There does seem to be lots of restrictions to it. And I'm not sure why. SWTOR has the best outiftter system I've seen in an MMO. You create tabs on your character profile, make whatever kind of outfit you want, save it, done. You can apply any look you want to at any time, regardless of where you are or what you're doing. There's no restrictions. And you never have to worry about a new item overriding your look. Once you apply an outfit, it's active until you change it, regardless of what your character actually has on.

It's super weird to me that other MMOs don't follow suit.

I'd like that system paired with LotRO's old wardrobe, where you could save items & add dyes, so that you could literally pick any version of any piece in any colour you'd added at any time. However, I know they want the dye market to continue, so that would never happen.

Why can't we just have glamour slots separate to everything?

Have a button on your character card that says "Glamour". Click it to open the interface. "This is your current glamour", and it shows like your normal gear card... but with glamour. If they feel the need to keep the glamour prisms, then just make it require a glamour prism to change what is currently in the slot. Give us one "plate" for each class. This would also solve the issue of certain classes sharing gear and thus blocking us from having different glamour on different classes that share the same gear.

Sure, it'll require less prisms. That sucks (from a gil sink stand point). But honestly after all the changes to the glamour prisms... they're pretty worthless now anyway. And it's not like FFXIV cares about gil sinks anyway...right?? If they do, they sure fooled me. lol.

Because that's how it's designed. It warns you before your sacrificial offering

Why aren't there enough plates?

Same as above. Future upgrade may happen. Please look forward to it.

If the event items are in your armoire, you can access the armoire

I wouldn’t be surprised if SE ignores us at this point. No matter what they do to fix our problems we have with the game, people still find ways to complain.

Calm down.

One of the likes on your post is actually from me, I agree with you.

We had a thread like this recently and it turned into a personal attack machine on people who felt the content was very lacking.

I totally expect that crew to show up here and do the same all over again.

Hence, Oh boy, here we go.

No one complains about SWTOR's glam system


And its probably the only thing it does right at this point lol
