    If everyone had full easy access to dyeable AF, it would just be a fad and not fashion, wouldn't it?

    Tongue in cheek aside, what does it matter that you have to put a little bit of work into it; both myth and GC tokens accrue with ease now. Crafting is one of those necessary tropes of MMOs but few have made crafting so unnecessary and obsolete as this game. Let them have the vanity/housing niche, yeh?

    Also, whm AF dye examples: http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/commen..._example_dyes/

    Since when has fashion had anything to do with how expensive or obtainable something is?

    In a game where vanity is the "hip" thing and sheep tend to flock towards the newest clothing, everything. Personally, I think it was kind of dumb that my fancy shades took two drops from unhidden maps which aren't that easy to get, but I'm cool with it since it's new and I like sport shades. Spring dresses and taffeta looked nice until every female miqote was wearing one or the other.

    But tongue in cheek aside (again), I didn't mind paying 400k for my second polarized glass because it's not like I was handing the gil off to some RMT (I think...) and unhidden maps are a pain to obtain. Not everything has to be obtainable by everyone, especially not only a week after patch, not even vanity gear. If it involves crafters and isn't obscenely retarded (like demimateria) even better, because it makes crafting relevant for something.

    That being said, as Brainberry said, myth falls like rain now and GC tokens were never hard to get. Your main issue is finding a master Alchemist, but even that is not difficult especially if you ask politely.
