Dyeable allagan gear thoughts.

I think ideally it should be locked behind crafting or PvP IF you didn't already get the drop. If you already have the gear, you shouldn't have to jump through more hoops to dye it. It should just become dyeable. This has some benefits:

1. There's an alternative method available to those who didn't get a chance to run the raids, BUT it's cost-prohibitive. This means two things:
a. Crafters can make money selling them to lazy players and
b. Lazy players have access to it.

2. BUT, very few people will actually want to buy them when they can get them from free, so
a. There will be increased glamor runs of the old raids, which were good content and could use a revival of interest and
b. Because of the alternative, those items that are crafted will be subject to deflation through competition and thus will never be exorbitantly priced.

What do you all think of that proposal?

I can live with dyeable allagan gear lock behind crafting, but please not PvP content. Other than that I'm ok with it.

Heck, why not both? Crafting will be more expensive, PvP will be more gameplay-intensive. I'll play PvP all day long (I stink at it, but practice makes perfect as they say), but I'm really broke. I couldn't afford really expensive mats/items from the market board. I'm sure some people are the opposite - gil sitting around with nothing to spend it on, but PvP has no appeal and is like a waste of time.

That option, plus the option to PF a glamor run through the raid, I'd be a happy lala.

I expect it will be available in the Moogle Shop.

Honestly if it's all class I just want the allagan coat of fending dyeable version on my machinist.

It won't be simple or fun. It will be some hot mess of epic proportion to be able to dye the gear.

i210 or i220 - job-based rank 60 gear


I think people will rage more if this is true rather than crafting lol.

Yeah I mean. You have to look at it two ways...
They put the ADS, a super sought after mount at the time behind massive PVP. SO, highly sought after glamour is an option for PVP rank. I can see a jump to rank 70 this patch. 55 Allag 60 High Allag 65 Dreadwyrm 70 Job gear.

I'm fine with both, but you will see non-pvp players crying foul on pve (ex) raid gears on pvp content. But if it does happen, then I will like a pve option to obtain the pvp ADS mount. (And yes, I'd pvp friends who cried foul when I mentioned how I wish for it to be put up on kupo stores or drop from bahamut coil).

I don't care what the requirement is, so long as it's NOT put to that specialist garbage.

Sadly I know all too well how they operate, and they won't pass a chance to let the person that made that utter trash system know their disgusting idea is getting use. Words cannot begin to describe how much I despise that system, and how aggravating it is to see them scurry to validate its unwanted detrimental existence at every chance by throwing anything they can on it instead of admitting it's terrible and letting it die.

I see 60, since it's the level cap. Maybe 65 or 70 in 3.4.

More I think of it, more likely this is. Ads mount helps point to it, 3.2 being a big pvp patch, dyeable coil gear being highly sought after...
