This just seems ridiculous to have to point out at all but. Why do we pay 12$ yet we cannot even dye anything but the hair? I just find this outrageous that I buy an outfit that I cannot dye. So you will barely be able to mix and match and it just seemed like a huge waste. I mean there is not even a higher priced one you can dye. Would love it if you guys could make it able to be dyed. I seriously get confused on what it is with square and not making a ton of outfits that cannot be dyed in an mmo game where costomization is a HUGE part of the game.

Well you don't have to pay anything, you could wait till it goes down in price (through a sale) or just not buy it at all you know, completely optional purchase. Don't get me wrong kinda agree on being able to dye NPC stuff, but dev mentality seems to be they want to keep them exactly as they are. Plenty of other outfits are dyable though...

I wasn't complaining about the price of it. And yes you do have to pay 12$ if you want it. And other outfits arent this outfit so Im not sure how other outfits being dyable is a logical argument in the least. The point is if you want this outfit it will cost you 12$ it is only accessible threw the mog station and it cannot be dyed besides the hair for some odd reason.

This is nothing new. NPC outfits have never been dyeable; and I don’t think there’s any plans to make them dyeable, since the developers like the idea of “authentic-ness” with regards to their NPC outfits. I think they should be dyeable, but I don’t work at Square Enix, so...

@Kurando Um DUH, yeah I brought it up. Because it just seems silly to make one thing be dyable and another not, and you saying oh well other outfits can be dyed so why complain!? Like the gear you get for doing your class quests. The only one you can dye are ARR upgraded versions. It isn't just this outfit that I find confusing, its a lot of them that are locked off from color customization for no good reason. And for once i'm asking for a legit reason as to why all this stuff cannot be dyed. Too much work? Lazy? Saving money? Not enough time?“authentic-ness”? Whats the issue here? I feel you have a bit of fanboy-ism going on here. FF14 can do no wrong everything they do is right. Because nothing I said was SO out there crazy. I like the game I support them with willing purchases but I have full right to question something about it. I just want to know why some outfits that are super well designed and look great never get the option to be dyed. Whether it be mog station, class gear, or even crafted. It is an mmo and I love to have as much variety as possible.

08-29-2019, 10:20 AMHyoMinParkThis isn’t true. All job gear is dyeable once you upgrade it—the only set that currently cannot be upgraded into a dyeable version of itself is the ShB relic gear. All the other ones can be upgraded and subsequently dyed. No one is defending SE here, but this is their decision. None of the NPC outfits have ever been dyeable, so I’m not sure why you expected for this one to be different in that regard.Quote:

As I said, no one really likes that NPC gear isn’t dyeable, but to complain about this one not being dyeable after there is a well established precedent is just shouting meaninglessly into the wind.Quote:

Worst thing about the outfit is that it is missing one item o.o/
According to this site: https://www.garlandtools.org/db/#npc/1012813 she is wearing the Lord's Drawers (Black) underneath, wich must be a mistake since they are gender locked for males. The correct panty would be Lady's Knickers (Black), but they are sold seperately on the mog station, so you have to pay extra to get the full outfit! :O -
10-20-2019, 09:36 PMViolet_GalaxyYou know if you hover over the items in the listing you can see if it's dyeable or not. You did know that right?Quote:

Think the OP is angry. At least they are venting out their frustration but there are punching bags or stress balls for that, doing that on the forums serves no purpose. I wanted a dyeable light dress of Minfilla's but ah well... You'll live.

10-21-2019, 02:59 AMIscahI've come across a few other NPCs with strange things like that - female characters using male versions of gear, or sometimes "antiquated" relic gear with a dye applied to it.Quote:

It's odd in any case.
(I wouldn't consider it a "missing piece" of the costume though, because you can't see it and could wear any number of items that give the same effect.) -

OP, people are agreeing with you that it's silly. But were explaining that the devs are pretty set on their reasons for not making NPC gear dyable. And also that it's silly to have expected it to be dyable when you purchased it, when it's not the case for other NPC sets, it's not advertised as dyable and not all gear is dyable and there is a way of checking if something is dyable.
I was interested in buying it and the newer Minfilia one too, but checked they were dyable first and because of this, I decided against it. I think this was brought up because you were outraged it was not dyable after purchasing it, when nothing is there to set that expectation.
However, not liking the responses you got you've acted like a child name-calling people who were agreeing with your point, and you don't like them for disagreeing with your expectations or maybe just did not get what you were trying to articulate? (If people misunderstand, maybe they misread, or you didn't articulate your point very well, hence some benefit of the doubt is due, surely?)
If you resort to name-calling so easily then you can't expect people to take you seriously. Especially given that when people resort to insulting others is an admission that you've lost your argument.
