Actually it is onion knight gear in that pic. Look at the hat. Its the "Onion Helm" from 1.0 CE.

And the armor looks almost exactly like the concept art. Regardless, its the "Concept" art and may be subject to changes.

I still dont see any dragoon armor in that pic...

you also see a roe using invigorate with that armor in the eorzea collection 2013 vid.

If you don't want to use the Standard Party Composition, in 2.2 they were planning to allow you to make your own alliances to funky challenge this thing.

What's weird is that this is Crystal Tower, the one from FF3 right? So wouldn't it make sense for the warrior/paladin outfit to be the Onion Knight one and not the Warrior of Light since he's from FF1?

:x Well iono, maybe someone can explain it to me.

Considering the fanservice approach they have to throw the references in somewhere - We already got his Helm that came from nothing other than getting a collectors edition, much like in 1.0 we had the Onion Knight armor set, but it was a cloth set that came from certain Guildleves.

Then i'll rephrase it as "Re-color". Basically taking an existing model and doing a different color variation on it. And to have it on new content that was supposed to be part of 2.0 but had to be retweaked and then delayed for a month is just quite disappointing. If the mage hat and the monk eyepatch in that picture is just a placeholder then i'll hold my shots.

Checked the vid and though its kinda hard to tell for sure, it is for sure a dragoon. But if it is an official "Onion Knight" armor, I hope its a generic stat armor for all classes, since thats what the Onion knight was, Jack of all Trades.

Yet building an MMO heavily requires the use of modularity... ironic.

Did a quick photoshop using a screenshot of the Helm of Light in game it looks pretty awesome.

I wish this gear was able to be dyed I'm not feeling the black mage color scheme.
