More eastern type looking armor for monk and ninja plz

Topic. So how come. Disappointed with the gears we have gotten so far from the new dungeon and wod. I mean they have release Koenig and aeries set from ff14 and yet nothing for ninja and monk. Would've love to see Usukane set. Also what's the deal with ninja weapon, there's only one katana everything else is daggers even sasuke is dagger. I'm a bit disappointed.

The problem is they're tied to being "rogues," so things with the "ninja" aesthetic kinda have to be exclusive to ninja, or are shared with MNK.
From a lore perspective, there simply aren't that many Domans around. Perhaps as more Domans become relevant to events in Eorzea, more armor will begin cropping up.

The lack of decent ninja looking gear is pretty sad.

The thing is that we aren't really in any Eastern territories yet. Trade has been restored with some neighboring nations after the defeat of the XIVth legion, but that doesn't necessarily mean with the Near/Far East. We'll no doubt see more Eastern looking armor for all classes as we go to these territories in the future.

They shouldn't have released Ninja so early if there wasn't any gear to fit the description of an actual Ninja. Honestly they could've came out with a multitude of other classes before a far-eastern class if they weren't planning on designing future armor sets to fit that description. I for one, don't care for any of the new gear that has come out for Ninja aside from the AF sets, it all looks like cheesy vagabond/thief clothes.

simply no, this is a bad escuse for not bring decent ninja/monk gear.... for information monk is coming from ala migho then they have no escuse for not bring better looking equipement. the truth about the lack of ninja look like weapon/armor, it's because people have scream and cry about the fact they will not have a thief then for please them they are overflowing us with thief look a like gear.

other point the relic is the NINJA weapon... not the thief weapon! how did we end with big dagger from the nice twin wakizaki? please explain me how is possible to miss the point soo badly.

i'm ok that the generic gear thief/ninja will not end with a eastern look, but the ninja specific gears need to have it!

ps: i will not talk of the ninja armor npc have and we can't get... seriously they need to add more eastern look armor for the ninja! even if we get some occident touch onto it, they need to be ninja.... not thief wannabe!

Please look up the lore surrounding Ala Mhigo, or better still, you could read the MNK quest line.

Though now under Garlean rule, the city-state of Ala Mhigo once boasted the greatest military might of all Eorzea. Among its standing armies were the monks—ascetic warriors as dreaded by foes on the field of battle as the city-state's great pikemen.
The monks comprised an order known as the Fist of Rhalgr, and it was to this god—the Destroyer—that they devoted their lives of worship. By mastering seats of power within the body known as chakra, they are capable of performing extraordinary physical feats.

it's sad that the previous quest line of the V1 was changed, you was fighting a group of ala Mhigo rebel that was wanting to go fight with the monk rival as leader...

Notice how it's all about how Ala Mhigo USED to be, and not how it is now?

You still do it. The only things that got changed are the locations and the difficulty. The dialogues are the same.
Only in the WHM quests the dialogue and protagonists got changed.

The White Mage story in 1.0 was way better, you were responsible for calming the rage of the being solely responsible for the 6th Umbral Catastrophe. Everything about the Conjurer and White Mage stories were more compelling, the lore was so much richer and you really got a sense of the history and power of Conjury.

completely agree with OP. All we really have is the AF gear, everything else is mid-drifts and gladiator sandals >.>

There's a merchant next to Rowena that sells Doman stuff for your house. SE could put MNK/NIN only Far Easterny glamour armor for sale there.

Agree with all the post. Kinda making sense to me now that Sam was not put in the expansion, not just because of it being dark and gritty but again on topic, no eastern gear. I like yoshi idea of this game and the content he comes up with, but really c'mon man. I've been monk since day one lol and I'm still glamourin my temple, this is pathetic. Also tired of the claw type weapons for monk, I mean c'mon monks are blunt not piercing or slashing but blunts. I just hope when the expansion comes out will see our AF2 with more emphasis on eastern design.

What good is being a ninja when you look like a ninja? Your target will see you coming from a mile away if you are a ninja dressed like a ninja!

I'm sure they have armors in the works, well see them when the next ilvl set comes in the future. I really hope they do away with the cleavage cut-outs on the female artifact sets and adopt something more classy inspiration of design that says "im female" like this:

If they want something between a rogue and a ninja they could go with this:

Lol I live those ninja gear for females, buts a non cleavage ninja outfit not gonna happen lol

I just want a version of the Ninja getup worn by enemies in Sycrus Tower and World of Darkness, as well as Doman allies during various 2.4+ quests. Preferably a version we can dye. Weapons would be nice too.

I'm a Dragoon and we only have 2 Dragoon looking gear sets, artifact and lvl90. Everything else is just standard looking gear. So I agree, they should try harder.
