Glamour restrictions??

Hello!

i hope i am posting in the correct forum,

Do you think SE will ever lift the glamour restrictions on classes/jobs for further personal experience/unique looks?

there are some great gear out there i would love to use for my PLD from other classes but even the glamour plate restricts it to DoW only.

thoughts?

Personally there are a lot of items that this shouldn't occur with but at the same time there are a lot that it could.

We have this discussion quite often. The tricky part is how to explain what we want to the devs without them taking it too far.

You have to be really careful not to say you want to remove "job restrictions" on gear. If you say this, they will skip ahead to "a black mage shouldn't be wielding an axe".

What we really should be asking for is for role restrictions to be lifted from non job-specific gear. For example, there are some heavy armors that would look really good on a healer designed after an "armored cleric" concept. Or Some leather harnesses that would look good on a mage. Maybe there are some shoes that you think would look cute with a particular skirt, but the shoes are striking only and the skirt is aiming only.

We need to be really clear that it's just these role restrictions that we want to lift. Job-specific equipment (weapons and AF gear) should stay restricted.

Yup, don't use the word job at all when mentioning this. Every time they ask Yoshi P in an interview, they always say job gear glamour and he always says no because of that.

I do totally agree on weapons/shields as such! sorry i should of worded that a bit better.

head/body/legs/feet as you suggested would create some amazing role play!

i was thinking maybe coding would take a lot of work to ensure each gear piece works with all classes/jobs when using actions?

I know that there's a pair of tank gloves (lv 32) that I'd love to mess around with on other roles, but can't for obvious reasons (NOT TANKS). And there's no gloves that are remotely close to them either let alone a standard version since its aetherial.

All aetherial gear is just ARR gear.

I dont think so, please no.

The "tanks in bathsuit" already throw me out of the game's world. No more please.


Glamour should be job locked. I hope the majority agrees with my opinion

Yep, every player understand the question but the producer can't.

Maybe we just need someone better for the communication.
