Glamour Plates - locations that don't make sense.

Glamour plates can't be applied in many places... and that's Ok... but maybe at least in sanctuaries? I mean... there are literal changing rooms in Camp Bronze Lake and you should be able to change... in them... imo. IJS.

Server limitations. If they allowed people to change plates in both sanctuaries AND inn rooms the server hamsters would keel over and die.

I thought you could apply plates anywhere. Just not adjust them.

Sanctuaries aren't all in their own instance. I guess the present limitation means only zones that are just sanctuaries (Ul'dah, Rhalgr's Reach, housing districts, etc) are where you can change them.

I can deal with that tbh. What really annoys me is no crafting in inn rooms. I have to go out, loading screen, craft dye, go back in, loading screen, go to the glam dresser...it's very tedious.

Basically the rule for whether you can apply glamour plates or not is, are you on a map that has any enemies in it? That's why capital cities and the Gold Saucer are fine, but but Revenant's Toll isn't because it's part of the Mor Dhona map. If the Bronze Lake changerooms took you to a separate instanced room like an inn, you'd probably be able to use them, but you're still in Upper La Noscea so you can't.

On that note, it's weird that you can change them in all of the wedding instances but not the triple triad battlehall.

Maybe because of how they’ve programmed it? You sign up for it through the duty finder, so it might technically be a dungeon. And/or the wedding chapel might not be an instance, just another map - you do have to book the space, after all.

The booking part is so there's not other groups outside, to prevent people from doing it right as maint starts, and so other people know when to show up.

They're both the same kind of instances. You can enter as DoL/Doh, you can't teleport inside of them, and they both spit you out at a specific part of a map when you leave. The wedding one just doesn't have a duty confirm screen.

It's not a big deal just something I noticed while being bored out of my mind waiting for tournament matches.

For now this isn't a big deal.
The amount of plates and item slots are a big deal though.
We need way more than that.
And it's not like you apply a plate every single moment so the available places to use them is not a big problem right now.

Until you switch jobs to gather in the middle of a blizzard in Coerthas Western and realize your gathering set still has your tropical glamour from spearfishing in the Ruby Sea on it. :-p
