Hq glamour items?

What is the difference of a nq and a hq glamour level 1 item?

"Congratulations, you can HQ this recipe."

There's no difference when glamoured as they look exactly the same and the HQ symbol won't even show up. HQ just exists because they're craftable clothing and to the best of my knowledge there's no craftable clothing that doesn't have a HQ variant.

Generally true, but if I remember correctly the Company Tabard is not HQ'able.

Bragging rights, no matter how small

They won't even show up as High Quality on the item you glamour it to, meaning if you Glamour a HQ Thavnarian Bolero onto a Void Ark top, the Void Ark top will only say Thavnarian Bolero (Not HQ.)

Crafters like to sell pretty things. People buy pretty things.

Usually if your crafting it, it's kinda a "why not" kinda thing.

I know whenever I crafting something I try to HQ it... habit i guess.

Didn't know that, thanks for the correction :)

So basic rule, if you have zero interest in using the weapon (like primal gear) or armor as is, go the cheapest route if its for the glamour :D

I always buy/make NQ if it is for glamour, don't see point in paying extra or putting in extra effort if it's just for glamour.

As far as MB though, HQ glamour items are just a reason for crafters to list item at a higher price.

I use that for testing crafting rotation, if I can HQ it, then good, if not, then I just finish it in NQ.
And HQ en NQ glamour tend to sell at the same price in AH.

Must be my server then, HQ Thavnairian Bustier sells for about 20% more than NQ, and similar trend for nearly all items used for just glamours.
