Treasure Hunts new glamour looks hideous

I was expecting something like Ysthola's clothes from the official manga

I think it looks fine and it gives males access to a nice cloak. It fits the game's theme more than yet another contemporary real world/animu glam.

Just throw a sweater and a skirt on and you basically have your Y'shtola glam.

if something looks terrible sell it to other players for a premium, this is how the fashion business works IRL

To be fair all the new gear is pretty phoned in. Dresses, Robes, Dragoon knockoff tome gear, copy pasta Greek PvP gear. All of it is rather uninspired.

I imagine Covid and labor issues just made them cut corners on new gear.

I mean. I like it :(

Not hideous at all.

Likewise. I can see the cape being a bit of an issue for anyone playing a race with a tail, though as far as aesthetics go...it looks like it fits the game pretty well.

You don't like it doesn't mean it is hideous.
Fashion, each of their own taste.

Looks like hobbit clothes, should've been a new lalafell RSE.

I tried it on, and the tail is pretty bad, but this is seemingly the way with SE these days. But like you said, I like that it actually seems to fit with the feel of the game. I know we're far past the point of "....but my immersion!!" with all the things that have been added over the years, but it's still nice to get outfits that don't seem completely out of place.

I will definitely be picking this one up once prices have settled a bit.

I like it and we need more glamours like it. Not these God awful sets that look like they were yanked from a hollister or a&f store.

I didn't like it from the show-off images at first.

After peeking at the top in game, at least in my opinion it dyes /very/ well, I was poking at it with general-purpose dark blue and green dye and both make it look pretty good

This was my first thought when I saw them...people can now channel their inner Hobbit.

It's perfect "field attire" for my bard and would look pretty swish as my DRG's in town gear. If only there were a /visor option to have the hood up or down...

This stuff is going to be worth an absolute fortune on Balmung.

I'm always a fan of shoulder length cape glams. So tired of butt capes and long coats

As people said above this is just Frodo's outfit from Lord of the Rings but with a white shirt and shoes.

As demonstrated by this random google image baby:

It's bad due to designed for not the popular races. Tails will clip again. HW gear already was bad due to this and here we go again

New glam is meh, but the ones from the manga...would have been a million times more awful. And we don't need more school outfits, we got mroe than enough already. Thank you sqeenix for not giving us those.

I'm going to live in the cloak, its cute and dyes well

Can't you get the stuff from the manga on the cash shop?

Are you implying the previous ones weren't hideous? Was this not dbag or dad clothes enough for you?

I know people who like it but personally I don't.
It reminds me of Western gear design in DnD and video games, it looks bland.

I don't play video games to look bland I prefer designs to be more flashy and fantastical.

It looks like some cheap Attack on titan outfit lol

Just don't wear it.


I don't see the issue.

Looks alright. It does scream a bit NPC-ish.

I just hate that they cant design stuff with capes to be cut different for tailed races. I mean when half your player base is playing a race with a tail.....maybe start taking it into account when designing the outfits from the onset.

Because I could find a use for it in a glam if it wasn't so horrid on the tail clipping

^This. Much rather have stuff that fits the setting.

I actually really want it. The cape looks wonderful.

Smoll indie company, please understand.

I like it
I'm glad it's not modern clothes or something overly revealing/ cutesy for once
But I wish XIV designers would remember they have 2 races with tails & they keep making designs that ignore the tailed races

So far, several of the armor sets have just been re-skins & they weren't even swapped to fit other jobs- which is the least they could have done if anything- I'd have liked to see the Neo Ishgardian healing top on Caster this time for example.

Yoshi-P & armor design team- please remember there are 2 races with tails & making capes is fine, but there is zero innovation when it comes to tailed races & clipping
That is somewhat good news though, if the designers keep implementing capes & other armors that clip, it means they can give us long hair & that clipping isn't a viable excuse anymore, right???

Do we really need yet another basic catgirl in contemporary clothing with every single patch? By the gods get a personality.

Disappointed in pretty much all of the new gear. The new tome gear makes most of my jobs look like vanilla dragoons, the treasure glam is just awful, and the new crafted sets are quite literally just recolors of old PVP gear(even worse since half of it doesn't dye properly). The market value on the new treasure glam doesn't seem to be very popular either and the price has already dropped 2-3M since this morning. It will likely sell for less than the rebel set within a week which is just sad.

The issue with the gear visuals/reuse seems to be a running problem for most of the pieces this expansion. I'm not actively working to acquire any gear that has been released since the start of the expansion beyond power upgrades. Everything on my list is all older stuff.

I really hope this isn't how things are going to be going forward now.

I'm pleased that it's more fitting to the setting of the game, but does EVERYTHING this expansion have to have a cape?

Will say it again. Not super thrilled about it. It looks like generic Ren' Faire attendee clothes.

Hm…

What bothers me most is that we still have such bad cloak psyhics. I like the design too, only that it never feels good to have a cape/cloak equipped.. D:

I adore it! I'm thankful there isn't a whole different model for male and female characters. Will definitely be putting this on a plate.

Honestly, I like how they toned down the extravagance of a lot of gear this expansion. The aiming crafted gear, for example, looks a lot like a traditional western rpg bard rather than … Amon.
