View Full Version : Eminent Staff is not Eminent at all.

Why name the staff Eminent when it clearly looks like the staff I had for the last 13 levels?

I was very unimpressed with the weapon design in this game, even moreso after seeing my "Eminent Staff"

On the lighter side of things, I just hit 99 BLM.

What did you expect from a 12 year old game that just reskins everything? The only *good* looking weapons are "special". Generic things that everyone can get for free are always meh.

I know, but I was really thinking it would not be the same exact model as my previous staff.

At least you can understand Vae, my fellow BLM.

Eminent gear isn't meant to look good. It's supposed to be a temporary holdover until you can get a 119 weapon.

I have it glamoured as my Iridal Staff. I have a "style" equipment set and a "stats" one, and my macro is something like

/equipset 1
/lockstyleset 9

Hi Jewelfox,

How do I do glamour? what is the 1 and the 9?

Also, anyone know if there are any full length hooded robes in the game to glamour with? Or easy to get staffs and two handed swords? :)

You may not be finding information on glamour in FFXI because it isn't called glamour. It's called lockstyle.
There's extensive information on how lockstyle works here: http://ffxiclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Lockstyle

If you aren't sure how to make equipsets, there's info here: http://ffxiclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Equipment_Set_Macros

In Jewelfox's example, /equipset 1 actually equips the gear in her equipment set 1.
/lockstyleset 9 will lockstyle or "glamour" the gear in her equipment set 9.

Keep in mind that you do need to be able to equip a piece of gear on one of your jobs in order to lockstyle it.
