So why don't you glamor your gear

[myahele]

The cost can add up. Glamour prisms (in my server) cost 5k-10+K gil each. So unless you have a crafter to offset the cost it'll caost a minimum of 25k gil just to glamour a full set.

I can see why some people may not be willing to glamour often since that gil can be better used on relic progression or items

I really like my glamour. I got artifact lv2 on my dragoon and Picaron's on my monk

People like what they like, really. I generally have bizzare taste in stuff and I accept that to me, it may not look bizzare, but to others it may. Likewise some people wear stuff I think is bizzare but I bet they think it's the bee's knees. So, yeah, nothing wrong with either way.

Some people just don't care or like what they see and aren't picky like us. I, personally, get very annoyed if my character has an unflattering or mismatching outfit, but I understand that other people don't care about theirs. I don't really pay attention to others' outfits (unless they have a cool glamour), but glamouring is one of my favorite things to do regularly for myself. Yes, some things are painful to look at and I don't understand how anyone could look at some things the whole time they're playing, but it's not my concern.

Unless your current gear is long term it seems a waste of money if going to change it often. I prefer to glamour only the stuff I know will have for long periods these days now, I also keep a variety of other sets/outfits in my armoury if feel like want to change it up some time without having to spend money re-glamouring/de-glamouring the same pieces often. It also does not help when a lot of items cannot be glamoured still or cannot use many items for glamours or dyes onto others just like doesn't seem worthwhile when a lot of the catalysts cost between 5-25k each on my server for each individual catalyst.

Glamour is annoying. They should have made a system where I can simply equip gear into cosmetic slots, separately from gear slots, rather than having to update glamours when gear changes.

Other games do that. Not sure why FFXIV implemented the dumb way when it could have chosen any system, but that's why I don't use it.

All my battle jobs are glamoured with the exact same gear.
I've had people start to recognize me thanks to this. It's nice.

I've never been one to transmog things. I played classic and Burning Crusade. I can withstand any combination of horrid colors.

I think the fun part for glamour is to find the right combination from various vanity gear sets,at least i have fun try this with that or try that with this blah blah ... Good way to kill the time.

Says the Miq with a Syrcus Shard on the MB right now. (Saw it when checking prices today.)

I'm hardly a high roller on my server, but I can still afford glamours no problem. If I feel like a particular type is too expensive, I either just make it myself or ask around for someone to help. It's really only expensive if you make it so...
