They mentioned that it might be tied to crafting, so it might even be the new high end gear crafters will use? They always get recycled models. Whatever it is, knowing Yoshida it won't be as simple as "It's now dyeable!"

the primal weapons approach maybe.
Special mats from desynthesis and drops from the raid.

I doubt it, I think it will be like the old Darklight gear. The primal weapons were upgraded for their special glows, but simply allowing gear to be dyed will probably simply be added to the existing gear. Darklight in 1.0 was not dyable, but after a few patches they allowed it and the existing gear gained a dye option, I'm confident that this will be the case for allagan gear as well.

Hopefully. Got the heal chest, bard chest and tank chest saved up and a few other bits and pieces.

What I'd like most is the heal chest in green like in syrcus tower those two NPCs.

They originally said they were going to be crafted recipes, so don't hold your breath. They've changed their minds before on stuff, of course, but I'd say it's more likely. If they're aiming to reinvigorate interest in Coil, using the old desynthesis mats as parts of high level recipes from Binding/Second Coil will do more to accomplish that than simply making the gear dyable will.

Indeed. The dev team seems to have a perverse love of taking extremely simple things that would be great for players if they took the easy route and adding a bunch of unnecessary steps to it. Glamour system being the most egregious offender

Well I don't mind if its tied to crafting but they better not require specialist crap or [ Insert That 5% Drop Onry That Will Cost Gazillions ] Material into the recipe for something that's for glamour only -___-

If I had to guess, they won't be glamour items, but rather the new high level crafted sets, which are (supposedly) going to rival raid gear in power.

If it has some use like they did back then for the ilvl90/ilvl110 crafted gears, that's fine.
But in HW the crafted gear they came up with are either require expensive materials, difficult to make (2star for an ilvl180) or locked behind specialist. Here I'm hoping they don't have ridiculous requirements again if it's only going to end up as a glamour item, kinda make endgame crafting and getting the ilvl170 set serving no purpose anymore.
