SE needs to redefine the word "costume."
I don't lodge many complaints with this game as I enjoy almost everything about it. But I have come to realize a flaw in translation around the word "costume." I wasted up to a week of my life raising a crafter and gatherer that I never wanted to create and farmed for Skybuilders' Scrip to get the Gemfiend's Costume Coffer for a glam I thought would look good for a ROG/NIN. Unfortunately, I must have misread the labeling the items within the coffer online because after acquisition; it still required the GSM job. Why? What is exactly the difference between this and its Lvl:80 relic armour? Its dyeable. I do not play for completion, only for story and fashion. Devastated is an understatement of how I felt. All this did besides waste my time was save me from spending money in the Online Store and stop me from leveling ROG/NIN all for an outfit to look good during cutscenes and gameplay. I never had any desire to craft and gather, and I still don't. Please open up class availability for these "costumes" and I will gladly spend time and money in class I may enjoy and not look like a bog-standard assassin or thief. I dress with class and not unsophisticated nonsense. Why not do the same with other types of clothing? I would love to have a healer look like they are wearing plate mail armour and not robes all the time and there might be others who think the same. I do realize that there is a glaring hole in this idea, but these forums are filled with hopes and dreams. Have a lovely day.
