View Full Version : Unity - I can't wear most of this rehashed equipment.

Unity is fine, but some of the newer jobs can't wear much or any of the rehashed equipment. It looks like the next update will see the re-release of several pieces of near-JSE. For instance:
Vampire Earring - WAR/PLD/DRK/BST/SAM/NIN
Vampiric Cloak - DRK
Tredecim Scythe - DRK
Cure Clogs - WHM
Caitliff's Socks - many jobs
Hercules' Ring - WAR/PLD
Perseus's Harpe* - WAR/THF
Zoolater Hat* - BST
Bandomusha Kote* - MNK/SAM/NIN
* They're probably going to pick 2 out of these 3 pieces because every Unity NM so far has only had 2 drops.

I'm going to toss in one more just for fun:
Jugo Kukri - THF


DNC, BLU, COR are left off most or all this gear because they were released after it and SE didn't include them on most JSE. Dancer, in particular, lacked any reasonable level 75 daggers for this reason and was left chasing weird, inconvenient weapons like Papilio Kirpan and Cinquedea that were added long after the job's release. Please don't do that to us again.

I do agree it's pretty nonsensical to just blindly stay true to the jobs that can equip rehashed old gear, perhaps they'll eventually branch out to ToAU and WotG areas so those jobs can possibly start benefiting from new weapons but keeping it that way does seem silly.

Jugo Kukri for example should really have been equipable by BRD and DNC, it's a pretty significant DPS increase over Atoyac.

Both the 2 new items are shit anyway.

I wish you could wear them because I won't be. I'm a DRK.

The same reason they are putting updated versions of old easy to get drops from old nms...?

That line of daggers has always been THF exclusive and I'm fine with that. DNC shouldn't get everything that THF has especially since they got to keep Accuracy Bonus I-IV when they were promoted to A+ rank dagger skill and have a higher tier of dual wield than THF gets.

In a game with 22 jobs, and only releasing ~4 NMs per month, SE should carefully consider creating items that more jobs can use.
Its no fun to wait an entire month and see a unity update that drops no loot for any of your favorite jobs.
I'm okay with dnc not being on jugo, just be fair and make something dancer exclusive in the future if you want to claim its for balance reasons.

This. Why are people going to bother staying subscribed to do this content when their jobs can't even use the equipment? Blu, pup, dnc, etc. not being able to equip gear doesn't provide nostalgic value to anyone.
