Why are caster and healer (almost) always a colorswap

Please, stop it, there's like only 2 category of magic gear, healer and caster, and almost all their gear are just colorswap from one to the other. Can't you give magic job more diversity?

"White" Mage & "Black" Mage ? ;)

That is only really with non-job specific tome gear most of the time. There are plenty of different options.

Though it doesnt mean they should do that in the first place anyways for the tome gear, it is kind of dumb

There were some diversity in bahamut. Now alexander is just a colorswap too.
Also, 24 man raid are colorswap.

I did not say it SHOULD be like this. I only said that there are still multiple options for glamour and such that are different.

I said in my previous post that despite that they should not do the colorswap thing, AGREEING with your post.
Dont cherry pick responses to argue against people who are actually generally agreeing with you

I believe the gear from Lab is completely different for healers and casters. I think that's the only raid like that.

Laziness. A better question to ask is why is 90% of all caster/healer gear just ugly.

It's further insulting when melee dps, especially dragoon, get to have unique looking gear all the time.

I don't even like my healers looking the same, why would I want all magic users to look the same? It's gross.

Lazy what else? Making new gears from scratch give them a lot work so to save time they just make the general of each role and go with it... But this time they were super lazy because they didnt even bother doing tank set and group it with mnk set.

Mnk with fists of fire make sense to them get ifrit primal gear but the tank would make sense having the titan set. And while Shiva is ok for healer, ramuh would be the best for casters.
