    Glamour Opinions

    I know, I know, I can just go check out the other threads, but I need to get statements people would like exposed to the reading public.

    So, I do want to ask: What do you all think about the Glamour System? Anything you'd like to change? Hate it?

    Love it?

    Please note that some or all responses will be used in an upcoming article for Gamer Escape.

    Mostly it's fine. I just don't think each crafting class needs 4 tiers of glamour prism. Makes things needlessly complicated.

    The glamour system is awesome. A little confusing at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's great.

    My only complaint is if you have to cast the glamour all over again if you want to dye a different color.

    I like the glamour but I hate that some nice outfits are restricted from DoM but a DoW can wear both. The only problem I have with it because I've seen so many pieces I wanted for my WHM. :<

    No you don't have to glamour again to dye. Just dye your glamoured piece if it can be dyed.

    I can't stand it honestly. If there were restrictions in place to keep Bikini's and the like out of it I think I'd be okay with it. As it is I feel like I log into a virtual strip club every day.

    Actually, a setting to hide all Glamours would be probably be best. If someone wants to run around in a bikini 24/7 they should be able to, but I shouldn't be forced to see it.

    The only big issue I have with the Glamour System is that pieces of armor that take up both Head slot/Body slot can only be glamoured for the body slot, leaving the head exposed and un-glamourable. The same thing with Leg + Feet slot armors. You can only glamour the Leg slot, leaving the feet bare looking.

    Otherwise, I love it! I can run around in my bathing suit looking like a beefy stud, yet retain all my stats <3

    yeah, especially since all 5 tiers of glamour prisms cost the same to make. Ie, the grade 1 clear prisms cost the same and the grade 5, and all prisms used the same mats. if their all identical in value it seems pretty nonsense to have 5 grades of prisms. Should be just one per craft.

    Wish we could glamour some of the crafting/gathering specific clothes. That alchemist robe looks awesome, and I'd love to go fight titan with my miner AF or even levi with a fisher AF =P

    I like the glamor system... it just pains me greatly that the tiny handful of glamor-specific recipes we got required items which are only gained in special events like treasure hunts or ventures. And that many of them are 3-star recipes. Seriously SE, if a level 30 weaver can craft a tunic which makes you stronger, more dextrous and keen-eyed then I think crafting a dress would be easy by comparison.

    What I really want are more items intended purely for glamor which are designed for lower level crafters, so that people can enjoy their benefits without having to be a master at every craft. It needs to be more open to entice people to craft, or at the very least to make these glamor items more accessible to people. Save the nicest outfits for the 3-star recipes by all means, but I dearly want to see them put a bit more thought into the concept.

    ...and this is from a dedicated weaver who already has all her crafts at 50 and her master book.
