Dragoon in mage gear :/

for those that just look at armor to judge a class, you need to look at weapons on this game, as weapons will always look like the type for each class (such as a dragoon can only glam dragoon weapons)
)

I don't think I'm against this. The game seems to follow the logic that everyone can wear cloth, but you need special strength or skills to wear heavier armor like mail or plate--skills and strength that only certain classes and jobs are capable of. This makes sense to me, but I wouldn't be against some special sets of armor-like gear that mages can wear, similar to the lightsteel set, which flat out admits in the name that its not heavy armor. Lightsteel.

I think it causes to much confusion among some people, I had a slip up in trial roulette the other day, I swear to god I thought a mage or healer pulled the boss to hurry us up, and it turned out to be a warrior in a dress... That was confusing enough for a moment, I don't want anything added to it lol.

Completely off topic, but I've been trying to come up with a name for a Night Caste Solar for awhile and the name of your Lalafell caught my eye.

That's funny since in PVP you do not see glamoured items.
You only see the original gear.

Well, give them some mercy :/ Their gear is so ugly so I understand they want to wear superior looking caster gear. Sadly for them they can not wield the awesome caster Sol set ;)

You two should try reading past page 1 :P this thread isn't very long.

Looks like Felt robe set. Could be dated gear from 1.0, which is all classes.

Were you able to examine it?

It doesn't matter either way because Felt Robe and its associated set are all classes.

I can get the reasoning behind it too, but there are still some items that are a little weird and it should at least be consistent. I think most leather gloves and shoes should be all classes, personally, and there are many cloth items that are geared toward DoW that can't be worn by mages like Kecks and Shirts.

I'd be totally for vanity-only varieties for sure though.
