I don't get the point of complaining. Glamour it and move on.

Just because we can technically glamour something to hide it doesn't mean we should point out when a piece of armor is very likely not functioning as it should (i.e. miqo'te tails). The presence of the glamour system is no excuse for shoddy armor modeling.

It's boring wearing the same old gear while everyone got their shiny i100s.

Or maybe SE shouldn't release any new armors, just palette swap old ones and slap on new ilevels. Because we have glamour.

That's gonna be my answer for everything that is wrong with ARR from now on: "Just glamour!" No matter how little sense it makes in context.

Spell speed > Crit. Not that the coat is bad. BLM BiS should be High allagan coat, even after upgrade.

I'm gonna glamour my Allagan coat.

I actually like how it looks aside from the tail. The tail alone made me glamour it right away because it just makes it look 100% more terrible.

My scholar FC mate got the daystar body and it looks sooo much nicer, though, IMO. I'm just a little tired of the cliche healer=white, blm/smn=black theme they keep doing. I'd love to see brighter colors on both BLM and SMN.

You can dye the gear when you upgrade it to i110 though, so that's something.

well technically smn specific is green and blm specific really isn't black, more darker blues/purples, allagan has black but as base fabric and was covered in other color leathers and embroidery so the black was the least dominant color. Scholar was greens and purples for job specific and had very little white anywhere. Plus CT mage gear was bright red and the healer was dripping in gold so.....

I skipped the whole issue by getting a high allagan casting coat. Looks good and bis too, would recommend it.

yaaay glamour.

I was excited to get the Evenstar Coat for my character (having never seen the tail with it) and when I put it on and saw her tail wrapped in leather and sticking up I was completely appalled that something like that could make it through design approvals. It's extremely inappropriate and vulgar and should really be fixed in a maintenance hotfix patch.

Having to glamour it isn't the solution, people put the time in to get new gear to wear, not cover it up with something old.

Well some...

The first thing I did when I got that evenstar coat was glamour it up, there is nothing I find attractive about this coat other than the stats and thank the Twelve we have glamour to cover the ugly thing up.

I don't understand why they had to restrict the dye-ableness to 110. Actually, why did they restrict it on ANYTHING?

*resists urge to strangle something*

You can only put 1 glamour on an item, right? So either my SMN and BLM wear the same thing and look boring (something I was hoping glamours would fix, not exacerbate), or one job is doomed to be a clown until 2.3.

RIP in peace, BLM.

Got my Coat today and sniffled at the sight...
Also I created a thread in the german Forums, asking for an explanation if this is "working as intended" or not.

Aaand I made an example how it could've been done too. Looking at the Carpenter Gear, the three spiky ends could've been splitted like here:

I don't mind the body piece at all, but I HATE THAT TAIL... where is my long fluffy cute tail?!

It looks like someone took my tail, bent it in half and shoved it into a thin container...

Love the body, please FREE THE TAIL!!!!!

the tail is having a boner

The tail is the boner.

"Daystar robe is uglier."

Lalafell pope would like to have a word with you.

freedom for miqo'te tails!!!!

I agree~! :D

I'm ok with the torso and arms portions. But the collar and tutu are horrid. I'm not a cat, but the tail thing is also pretty bad.

I love the Evenstar chest piece, except for the horrible miqote tail issue.

Honestly, at first I liked the Daystar robe, but now I do not at all. I have glamoured over it.

Are you honestly complaining about the best looking armour set in the game? D:

(what I wanted said with that is that I LOVE that set<3)

Yeah, I'm just going to look like a regular ol' SMN before I start getting pieces from Coil 2.

It is a great set...not complaining about it, I love it....

EXCEPT what it does to Miqote and their tails. If you're not a Miqote then you're very lucky and don't have to deal with people teasing that you have a boner tail... >.<

The tail is hideous. Love the outfit but dat tail man.

Yep if they removed the Miqo tail I'd actually be a fan of this set, it does resemble a Black Mage in fundamental way, makes me think of a final fantasy stylized villain, I'd be kinda proud to dawn it if I didn't have that tail thing and thus I'll just not buy it and focus on DRG.

I wish I was a miqo'te so I could have the tailboner. I think it's great.

So I noticed on female miqo'te, the tail shrinks up to the minimum size. On males, it seems to get extended to the max, so it doesn't even seem to take into account your tail size either.

The tail looks like it's a bug. I think it's probably not running it's animation, and the tail is just how the model file is set. If you look at say a Floating Eye, the tail just sticks out.

Set looks good, can always use the tail for a back seat for lalafells, or a swing. Much uses, much greatness, much tutu.

I did, but only because of the tail <_<
Wish I hadn't though, because I actually like the set (not that I haven't posted this before.... =_=)
