The Fashion Report

I wasn't willing to part with the couple hundred thousand for the current price for the dark green dyes or farm more scrips for pellitories after farming up yellow scrips to supply pants for my wife and myself, so I tested an Extreme Survival Shirt dyed deepwood green. It netted three stars.

So I whipped up another for my wife. She hadn't had time to farm the FATE and substituted the Hatchling Earrings, and got four stars for those.

I don't want to spend a lot on this game. (ill get the title on a week where i already own the rarer pieces ^^)
Here is a option to get your 60k MGP for this week but its practically free.

Weapon or tool of choice (Goobbue Grey)
Flat Cap(Dalamud Red)
Wyvrenskin jerkin (any?) (Deepwood Green)
Any hands (Deepwood Green)
Wyvrenskin culottes (any?) (Cream Yellow)
Any boots (Dalamud Red)
Behemoth Earring (found in the FATE)
Thornmarch EX Ribbon of Anything
Any accessories, mine are just my WHM combat ones I didn't bother changing out

Colours are very important.

So look like I just lucked out this week :( Kind of sad about it, since it doesn't make sense to me.

Not really sure how the colours fit for this week, but you could be right since last week I think pure white and jet black were needed. Being the most expensive dyes would make sense with "high society". Although overall theme also seems to fit at least the most correct guess for left side themed parts (probably is not like this for right since there are not that many options for jewerly).

For that one you left slots empty - never do that! Just put ANYTHING in there (if theres no hint, anything goes - if it can be dyed: dye it! Correct colour gives more points. Accessories cant be dyed at all though, so just use any)

Maybe if I'm lucky this will continue to encourage running things like Dzu, so I can catch up on achievements and such. >_>

I didn't keep old glams before the dresser was released so I had to get that dzu fate done again. Took almost the whole timer of the fate to very gradually deplete its HP starting with me soloing and later increasing to a few people I managed to coax into joining. Moogle ex was simple enough to solo unsync as tank. Was very happy with my 100 rating thanks to some helpers.

On our server the hunt shells started reporting on achievement fates as well. I'm now only missing Virfofnir thanks to them.

In case anyone wanted to try to bypass the FSH requirement, Mammon Lucis + Minekeep's Helmet won't get you 100.

Huh, silly me, thinking I could win a Fashion contest without being a fisherman.

Anyone try the ironworks/carbonweave cap of gathering? It has the same silhouette as the flat and tacklekeep's cap with the small brim and bunched up forehead, which makes me a little optimistic about it. There's also the Postmoogle Cap but that's not dyeable so I'm not sure if you lose points for that even if it's theoretically gold by itself.

I'm still not quite sure how the scoring system works. If you get bonus points for dyes, does that mean any item that can't be dyed is automatically out of the equation?
