Too Default

Egi Glamour not visible in PvP? I'm sorry, but this game's trying "too" hard to be balanced. Loosen up a bit.

Why should it?

I read the notes on egi glamour and it reads like the egi glamour is you set one glamour and it applies to all egis (ie: sounds like you can use topaz carbuncle over garuda.) So pvp rule is likely so your opponent knows what you have summoned.

People even pvp?

Reread: ok, sounds like all 3 are set independently, but the glamours aren't restricted to certain egi types. So yeah, opponents readily knowing what you have summoned wins out.

The note says the opposite at the end:

The appearances you assign each of your three egi will be saved when you log out.

---

So it's one appearance/glamour per egi.

Ye, but you can assign Titan=Topaz, Garuda=Topaz, Ifrit=Topaz. The fact that this is saved has nothing to do with the fact, that a PvP enemy doesn't know which egi is behind your topaz carbuncle (is it a Garuda which can push me back? Is it a Ifrit, which can stun me?).

Oh yeah I agreed with the pvp rule. I was just replying to the "set one glamour and it applies to all egis". I just misunderstood that you mean "glamours aren't restricted to certain egi types" (as Aesteval worded it). :)

If you can use any glamour on any egi, then I agree with the rule. Opponents being able to see which egi you have out is way more important than you having your egi look like whatever you want it to.

It's not even that, the game's being too restrictive in almost every aspect.

Also, your "virtual doll" defines you.

Of all the posts here with good reasoning on why it should stay transparent in PvP for fairness, you responded to this off-hand remark?

Yeh, it was really early when I initially read and posted a followup correction to that. Incidentally it doesn't feel like I have a chance whatsoever at being coherent today.

I dislike it, but it makes sense.

Because the answer was clear, and it was more of a direct message to the game(if they ever read posts).

First MMO?

But 99.9% of the time in PVP everyone uses Garuda, so it's not like the glamour would be "hiding" anything.

Glamours were removed when Frontlines (maybe even wolves den?) was released. It might have to do with programming issue and will eventually be fixed in a future patch.

Many MMO's disable transmog in PvP. It's pretty standard.

Probably not a bug. It's so people can discern more easily what they are up against at a glance by looking at weapons/gear. Same reason for egi-glamours being turned off most likely.

Yes, the game is trying hard to be super safe ever since 2.0

If any complaining is to be done it should be of how many times egi glamours got delayed only to end in being carbuncle and its recolors. Like really? Yeah game is Bravely default (;P)
