    Glamours and pvp

    The glamour system is expensive. The Artifact armor is even more expensive to make dyeable.
    And Square Enix you wont even let us pvp with this ? Im sure alot of players put alot of farming and money into making their glamours. But in pvp you basically just ditch the glamours. And you make pvp armor that looks so terrible (Im sure some players loves it) but knowing that I cant even use glamours on that ugly armor. Doesnt make me wanna do pvp for sure.
    And I feel sorry for those who put so much time and effort into making AF gear dyeable and cant even use it in pvp zones.
    Sqeenix you just becoming more and more stupid. Not wierd that players wont stay in your game more.

    In PvP, people could use Glamour to disguise their job, effectively using Glamour as camouflage to take the enemy by surprise.

    That's why it's disabled. It was a good choice, you just don't see the bigger picture.

    If I recall correctly, in the latest Live Letter we had a question where Yoshida flat-out said they would be making glamours work in Frontlines. Can't have them in Wolves' Den though, for the reasons Dice pointed out above.

    Really? I had heard that there would never be glamour in Frontlines because of that.

    Pvp could needed some suprises. And no one likes Wolves' Den anyway. Atleast frontlines have some more action.

    Originally there weren't any plans, but there's a lot of requests coming in for it. In the last Live Letter, as mentioned, Yoshida said they'll be doing something about it.

    Originally the "No Glamours" policy was decided on for Wolves' Den, which originally displayed Fresh Meat as the name of all opponent characters. In 2.28, however, opponent names were changed from "Fresh Meat" to whatever their class is, in order to promote clarity, and this essentially gives a workaround to the main difficulty Glamours would introduce (difficulty discerning targets).

    If they ever factor moral back into pvp, they'll probably keep glamours off.

    You'd want to know if the healer is un-facerollable or not depending on his gear.

    Yoshida confirmed during the last live letter that glamours will be put into Frontlines.

    and that's a problem because....? All what I'm seeing is that people want to easily find someone they can get an easy kill on.
