Dyeable Starter Gear?

As I was sitting around mucking at the few options of starter gear I had. I came to the realization that it would seem like we had a lot more variety if we were able to dye the starter gear. As the starter gear is somewhat aesthetically pleasing and would give more variety to those just starting out beyond the everyone looking the same.

can't dye it until lvl 15 when you can unlock dyeing through a quest, but doesn't mean I still wouldn't like it. Just means new players wouldn't be able to take advantage of it right away.

Yeah, SE should make them at least dyed to different shades. Also I would see more distinctive race attires.

I am using the Starter Vest for my Healer's set, I love the vest.

Starting gear is often used for glamors as well, so it makes sense to be able to dye them.

I want a Cat-Ear Hood for Lalafell.

To clarify, are we speaking about the starter gear, as in the level 1 racial gear (in which case it's a bit moot point since you propably wear something else at the point where you unlock dyeing), or the job specific gear you get near 50? If the latter, it is possible to make them dyeable, to my understanding.

I'm all for the idea of dyeable starter gear. I personally like the design of the human starter shirt with the single left sleeve design, (though I do prefer the event only Advent Children Cloud outfit that I can't get), but I'm not fond of the white coloring, and with no other options with similar designs available that are dyeable, I'm stuck using the relatively common high level gear for my glamor outfit....

Starter Gear is your Default Level 1 "I'm replacing this 1st chance I get" gear that you start the game with along with your Statless Level 1 Starter "Default" weapon. If they meant the Job Specific Gear you get through the level 45 and 50 job quests they would have said "Artifact Gear" or "AF Gear". In no way is the AF Gear "Starter" Considering for many of us 2.0 newly level caped 50s hitting Pretorium for the first time the AF gear was the best we had. (Unless you were a master crafter or knew one then you could have ilvl70 gear as soon as you hit Level 50)

Although we cannot promise if it's possible to add dyeable starting gear, we have relayed the suggestion to the development team for consideration.

Thanks for your suggestion!

Please let the development team know that dyeable RSE starter gear is something that many people have requested over the last couple of years in various topics in the general discussion forum. If we could dye that gear it would greatly increase it's use through the glamor system later in the game.

Awesome news! Now all we need is confirmation that all Allagan gear will finally become dyeable in 3.0 :)

If not dyeable versions then different color versions. (I know I don't want to bring up the XI reference but I will here.) It was something that we had in the previous game and would love to see it here. I would love to see either dyeable or different colored versions quested like they were in that game. We need more sidequests/adventures that give us this type of gear rather than just crafted or dropped gear.

Although there are no plans at the moment to make it possible to dye Allagan and Dreadwyrm equipment, the development team is aware of your requests. :)

Are they aware of my requests? :rolleyes:

Tell them to make plans! It's no fair to show us Unei and Doga in those beautiful green High Allagan sets, and then tell us we can't have them!

Please make this a reality as this would further incentive to run these dungeons again. Also, I'm not sure if it was confirmed in the Live Letter XXI but will the Binding Coil of Bahamut be subject to the same standards as the dungeons in 2.0, wherein seven people of less can enter an instance?

I'm sure they have quite a detailed compendium of all the request and discussions that are on this forum. They just don't have the resources, or I'm assuming the clearance, to acknowledge every suggestion and bit of feedback that gets posted.

I can't begin to imagine the snippets of paper that scatter the dev team's desks of all the requests we forum-goers have of them. But yes, please let us dye everything :D

Didn't Yoshi-P mention that they were planning this at the Las Vegas live letter?

We have plans for this, but we would like you to wait a while longer.

Really disappointing if they went back on what was said. I'd been waiting excitedly since that was announced last year.

please make this happen i love my hyur gear and i would like to try other dyes, please SE !!

Necro bump!

Now that we are finally getting dyeable starter gear (thank you do much BTW!) the one burning question that remains is: Are they still race-restricted?

Most likely yes, can't have too many good things at once. But can still hope.

And have that hope smashed into pieces.

;~;

Or maybe it will just be one item per slot which looks different on every race, like the other weaver lvl glam gear^^
