    We've been asking Square why Glamour restrictions are as silly as they are for months now.

    I...don't see anything silly about it....

    Seeing a caster running around in heavy armor would be stupid.

    I mean, granted, some of the glamour people wear are equally as stupid, but classes should at least have some unique stuff to them. Personally I'd love more glamour restrictions, I'm tired of white mage and scholar looking the same.

    If you restrict mage glamour any further, we really might end up in uniforms.

    Heavy armor models like the HA tank coat and Demon armor would make excellent "battlemage" gear.

    I used to think that all Job-restricted glamours were justified, but they increasingly aren't. Restrict AF and perhaps Tome gear, but free up the rest IMO.

    Not every piece of heavy armor is plates of metal making you look like a walking wall, either. Find me one good logical reason casters can wear thighboots from DoL / DoH, but not Moccasins or Caligae. Or why something like the i70 Gryphonskin Tunic is ARC / BRD only for glamour despite other tunics and heavier looking leather gear being widely available. And compared to i100+ gear's potential weight, is a Cotton or Hemp Tabard really that impossible to see on a caster?
    You'll always have idiots who do stupid stuff like tank naked. Big whoop. You also get some damn amazing combinations from people who are allowed to take attractive pieces from gear sets below them while still looking like they're playing the part they signed up for.

    That's because we have so little choice in glamours. And because some pieces are shared, we are pretty much forced to choose similar/identical glamours if we have both whm and sch or one of them would look off. There is so much DoW gear that would look good on casters.
