Dragoon in mage gear :/

Haha while I see what you're saying and don't necessarily disagree, it was most likely an oversight on their part that the DoM stuff is available for "All Classes" to begin with. I doubt they were considering glamour when they did that, so it's more likely that they'll go backwards, like you mentioned, and make DoM stuff "DoM Only"

Was not aware of that, if that's the case then they really have no reason not to, unless they plan to eventually make glamour available in PVP.

Haha, while I'd like MORE Glamour freedom rather than less... perhaps this will have the added benefit of 'helping' some folks use the correct gear for their class in dungeons? xD

AF, Allagan, and PvP is class restricted, but I think that's it. Otherwise all mage stuff is listed as "All Classes" like crafting/gathering (non AF) gear is. I think changing DoM gear to "DoM only" would be a step in the wrong direction. :/

Acolyte, Plundered, Doctore, Toto-Rak drops, Battlemage, Cutter's Cry drops, Coliseum, Harlequin, Warlock (WP gear), Militia (crafted i55) and Strategos/Demagogue (AK gear) all are DoM-restricted greens

Almost all of those aren't unique models and have crafted versions that can be used by DoW.

Specifically, the only models that are mage-restricted are only Acolytes/Cashmere, Battlemage/Cashmere, and Coliseum.

And 90% of DoW gear is also copy/paste. Coliseum, Foestrikers (BRD i90), Infantry (MNK i90) and...actually, that's about it. Maybe Poacher's Tunic (Cutter's Cry BRD drop), but I'm not sure about it.

Also, the Seer's Cowl (Cutter's Cry caster drop) is also unique; has a mask on it that no other robe has.

Taffeta looks pretty close to Coliseum imo.

My point is that regardless of the copy-paste, DoW have access to those specific models. DoW can't use toto-rak mage gear? Make a crafted half-robe and dye it pink. Can't wear strategos? just craft a bliaud and dye it a similar color and now your DoW can wear it.

Mages can't craft the archer tunic sets and wear those since they are restricted. They can't wear leather jackets or jerkins or anything else that is DoW only. The few things DoW can't wear are unique but have crafted alternate options that look the same.

I actually had no idea those were not mage-restricted. At least that's some progress as the Light steel stuff is all-classes as well.

And many people serious about glamour will not use something unless its exactly what they want. I know I went through each shirt in-game before deciding on the Buccaneer's Shirt for my old DRG vanity (I finally got my Infantry shirt, so that's my vanity now) I went through so many pants to find one that looked good with the Allagan Robe of Healing (still dont' have the T5 pants...still trying to farm that for them)

What I would love is if I could Glamour hooded-robes onto non-hooded ones. I love some of them on my alt.

Nope, glamours are disabled when in a PvP arena.

EDIT: Didn't see someone already mentioned this. Go about your lives citizens.

Any job can wear the Taffeta (looks like Coliseum caster set) and Light Steel (looks like Coliseum physical DPS set). So you can make your mage looks like a physical DPS and vice versa. Both are crafted sets.
