@Kitru Couldn't always change what gear looked like, beyond dying it, which couldn't be done to all gear. The glamour system was added because people complained/asked for it.

I have zoomed in on the models, and you sound like you're blind if you think Garuda-Egi looks more like Garuda than Titan-Egi looks like Titan.

Congrats on a failed assumption. I actually would be complaining just as much about Garuda-Egi even if Ifrit were equally viable, and Ifrit/Titan-Egis are still not on par with the Carbuncles for animations. Having better animations than Garuda-Egi doesn't mean they're as good as they should be.

And, there's plenty else that could be done for Garuda-Egi besides sit there passively, occasionally bobbing up and down.

You're the first summoner I've met who wasn't apparently disappointed with the appearance of the Egis. And, if you were actually capable of reading (which your entire post suggests you're not), you'd notice that I said rather clearly it wouldn't take any significant resources away as it would have no impact on the teams developing anything mechanics related, and could go alongside the addition of new Egis who would also have more appropriate appearance. It would take far fewer resources than putting a game-mechanics team together for rebalancing the class to make it "feel more FF" when the lack of "FF feel" is primarily in the appearance of what you summon, something that's been a common and constant complaint since smn was first unlocked in this game.


Now, how about you just stop responding unless you actually have something constructive to say?
