The new dungeon gear? (4.2)

Thoughts?

Bit boring, you could add this to any heavensward dungeon and it would have the same look/theme.

They're all essentially reskins sadly with maybe two exceptions. ): I'm not a fan but I understand why they did it.

These look like the sets from Castrum Abania.

Ah.

It's not often that I hope the set that's just a white recolor is the healer set, but I'll probably only bother collecting the gear if I can wear that hat. Everything else looks lame.

bigger ver.

Hope I can use whatever top the catman is wearing, besides the healer set it'll probs be the only one I'll farm for.

I quite like it. I can already see myself mixing parts of those sets with other bits of glamour...especially if it can be dyed like the Skalla gear.

If that white set is the bard set I am going to be wearing that, it's very cute.

The white set is a recolor of the existing ranged set so its most likely not for bard :c

Stormblood gear selection just isn't as good as Heavensward. My opinion of course.

I love that set, so being able to wear the different pieces on different classes is good news for me.

The one on the right is a reskin from FF11 Duelist tabard!

And i bet FF14 RDM will not be able to wear it!

They're definitely the same models as the Castrum Abania sets. I recognize the tank and ranged sets. Also given that the Skalla gear is dyeable, I'd wager that this stuff will be too.

...more healer dressers.

i say what the lala set will be the ranged one, the white set what the miqo'te wears is nin, the robed ones will be caster and healer ones and the remaining ones will be mnk drg and tank

You can see some in the trailer, (spoiler tags just in case)

The one the lalafel is wearing is the tank set (you get a good look at 3:15) the Au Ra is wearing the monk/sam set as you can see them fighting in a few shots looks like the female kitty is in the healer set so no robe....though take that with a little salt as it's hard to make out

Wait, the male kitty or the female kitty? Because on the one hand, some gear that isn't white would be lovely as a healer (especially since I have no faith that this set will be dyable, just like the model-swaps in HW dungeons weren't), but on the other hand, the white set is a very unusual sort of model for healers to get, so that makes it interesting even if it is white.

Opps thought there was only one kitty

It's the female kitty

Boooooriiing, I want more exotic outfits like Ananta tribe hopefully will have. More of an Ala mhigan eastern clothing would be cooler kinda like the ilvl 320 gatherers and crafting gear is.

If I were to guess who gets what

Au Ra is Dragoon
Elezen is Ninja
Female Miqote is Healer
Hyur is Bard / Machinist
Lalafell is Monk / Samurai
Male Miqote is Caster
Roegadyn is Tank

Au Ra is Monk/Sam and Lalafell is tank and I'd guess that means Roe is Dragoon

More meh SB gear. The expansions is staying true to its awful glamour options.

Hmm. I find it unusual for them to add two plated outfits and none are for tanks. The game usually has a tank and dragoon plated usually very similarly. I see what you saw in the video, but it would contradict their gear designs to be as what you say.

Man, casters just cannot catch a break. I hope the next set doesn't involve yet another "robe".

You know they should have a full body armor contest for each job class.

Best one gets made.

I'd like to see that.

We saw something similar with the primal gear set with the Tank not getting the most armoured gear, but it's not what I was expecting

Female Miqo'te is Aiming gear (BRD/MCH)
Lalafell is Healing gear
Hyur is Striking gear (MNK/SAM)

All the rest are correct if they were to base this off of the gear sets from Castrum Abania. Also, it'd seem a bit weird if this dungeon set wasn't dyeable when the last one was.

I had all 3 as you pointed out initially, but white color of Ranged gear made me change it up and shuffled it as my list.

The only Abania gear I kept for glamour was the valkyrie-esque headpiece for drg.
Which looks like it's been swapped for a recolour of fending's Gary Oak hood, so pass.

Reskins...... my most hated thing about this game.

...honestly its better that its ugly reskins given how hard it can be to actually get dungeon gear to drop. People really hated the rng for the skalla gear, for example.

To be honest, any of them looks like it could protect your body from anything.
I like heavy armor legs and hands, nothing else.

Because the tanks already have a version of that set from Castrum Abania. The lalafell is the tank set, which is a recolor of the Dragoon set from Castrum Abania. They are recolors of the Abania sets while also being shuffled to different classes.

I doubt it. Skalla got dyable gear because it was released as the only new dungeon in that patch. Since there are two dungeons this patch I bet it's not dyable (But I bet the gear we get in the lone dungeon from the patch after 4.2 will have dyable gear again, to get people to run it.)

Like all dungeon gear, it looks like GC seals and desynth fodder to me. :p

For real, though, hope they continue the Skalla trend and have this gear be dyeable.

I think the Skalla was dyeable because it was based on one of the 3 contest winners. 2/3 winning designs are dyeable, the caster based set will probs be too.

Unimaginative and horribly frumpy.

I give them all a 3/10

Yoshi-P had been asked about the 4.2 dungeon gear being dyeable, during the new year's server visits, to which he replied with: "If i remember correctly, you can't..."
So I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Maaaan, there never seems to be any decent looking gear for ninja's unless it's job specific. Otherwise we are just palette swaps of monk/samurai. Same for tanks and dragoons. They should really spend more time making gear look unique for each job so that it would actually get me to collect it as glamour.
