Never underestimate how lazy people are. I am in a crafting FC and most of them ignored the fashion report, some just say 'oh I'll just wear whatever glam I have and report'

I try to advertise the correct combination in Novice Network on Friday so that those lazies who don't even bother opening up this forum or reddit, would take interest and drive the market. Otherwise, a lot of solo/dead FC players wouldn't even bother touching this.

keep in mind shiva weapons won't get full points as you can't dye them. Hailstorm will be the way to go.

It's not fun if everyone can get 100 each week. That'll make people lose interest fast.

There's enough "special gear" like primal gear, dugeon loot, trials loot where you can find stuff for all the classes... i realy think that is not a good idea to class lock this minigame

But you can do the upgrade on a Shiva weapon to enhance them. Since it effects them cosmetically, it may count the same as a dye.

This is me. Its not really worth the effort for me. I'll take my 10K mgp with no effort. if we ever have a week that I can get 80+ without having to go out of my way on most of the glam, then I'll do it. For me its more fun to read some of the theorycrafting in here.

Game doesn't rate on aesthetics. Deep down in the code, it's all just numbers. Upgrading just turns it into another item that can't be dyed.

Kinda agreeing that it's unlikely Shiva weapons. Unless scoring system turns out to be a little variable, if what worked last week holds true, it's better to look for what matches the pattern.

Which is also why this will likely always be "class locked" to a degree. Perfect rating needing that degree of precision and all.

I thought this my be the chance to get 100 (done and over with) and then I read up on going to the diadem for the possible sky pirate part. There apparently isn't a way to get in without a FC. I just might have to go for 80 or try to just get the materials and bug one of my friends to make it because I'm pretty sure the prices have already gone up on my server. I should just learn to check in earlier.

Apparently there is a chance for chinchilla hides to be gotten from one of the level 50 ventures (XI I think?) so that's a plus

You can queue for it solo - though it's a 'hidden queue' like Palace of the Dead that doesn't show up in the duty finder.

You need to speak to the organisers outside the airship landing in Ishgard. Buy a mission voucher from the quartermaster, then speak to the mission commander to register.

(I haven't tried it yet myself, though I heard the queue is pretty dead trying to get in this way - but hopefully will pick up this week!)

If you know of an FC with an airship that will let you use it, you can enter that way. You don't need to be a member of the FC.

You can just solo que for Diadem now. In ishgard. Just buy some ceruleum from the vendor and go.

Im using shiva stuff. The accessory wont be dyeable no matter what and its the same clue as the weapon. *shrugs*

Also i interpreted "cool" as like "keeping it cool for summer" but i can see the winter theme now, even though the skypirate caster shorts are are basically hotpants. Ill probably do alpine coat or adventurer sweater for top. Im going to try the wolf legs from the halloween event as the feet. Ill post my findings as soon as the judging starts.
