Best and Worst AF2?

[FoxyAreku]

Well you can always pray for AF3 to be based on a different Ninja character from FF series. Like Edge from FF4.



AF2 is based on Shadow from FF6 and it even has is signature side horn on the head gear.

My problem with it is more...do we really need 50 generic looking ninja outfits?
Course the same could be said for caster gear, it's all robes.

I'm so tired of these generic ninja suits.

It's fitting for MCH. Technically, and lore wise, it's a crafting profession turned combat. And while it may not look particularly combative, it does look like very utilitarian clothing. I personally can't wait to wear it (with a skirt. Lace Valeria doesn't do pants. . . despite the awesome stats on those pants :P)

SMN, WHM, PLD, and DRK are perfectly fitting. BRD/MNK are legacy costumes if I recall.

BLM is. . .

My biggest problem with it is the side skirt and open chested shirt. Lace it up a bit and move all the skirt things into a utility belt type look and I think it'd be better.

I'm bummed female MCH gear seems changed from the artwork -- I think they have pants now, and not the skirt and thighboots? Not sure though, but I liked the artwork better :/



**Edit: Guessing maybe they didn't want the raging from people who want all AF to be the same -- i.e. the rage posts about DRG armor**

well as a mechanic pants are the better choice for you i mean... the oil

there are so many other job AF's where you can look under your miquotes' skirt^^

[SummonerSenah]

Biased but I love the summoner gear. White mage and dark knight are awesome, too. I'm not crazy about the monk or scholar sets, though.

Best: SCH (looks more unique than the rest, plus I like the hat and robo fists) and DRK (you look like you are gonna go full on Judge Dread on some trash)
Worst: NIN (generic ninja, lame) and SMN (why is there a diaper instead of actual pants?)

Most of it looks pretty good, with some just being less impressive than others.

SMN (why is there a diaper instead of actual pants?)

Is it really a diaper on male characters? :/ It's a miniskirt on females.

Yeah, this is so annoying... Instead of giving female MCH a miniskirt like the artwork shows, they gave it generic boring pants. They also gave it a weird black undershirt because heaven forbid if there's some female cleavage showing in a teen rated game. And instead of giving male SMN actual pants or shorts they gave it a diaper. I wish they didn't pander to all the "equality" whiners and instead gave a thought to what does and doesn't look good on each gender. -____-

I Cant see a worst here. For me I like them all.

[Keys2tkingdom]

Is it really a diaper on male characters? :/ It's a miniskirt on females.

Bassically, yes. Although it's more accurate to sat it's like an INCREDIBLY small waist towel (even shorter than the female Miqo'te's starter miniskirt!) that barely covers what it needs to. I'm actually surprised (yet incredibly grateful) we don't see something poking out...

Worst: Scholar - what is that 18th century clothing with dat hat.

Actually, the design of the hat's pattern is accurate. I know because I make period clothing and costumes for theaters. What ISN'T accurate is the decoration on the front. Metal was rarely used to decorate hats because of issues with weight and availability of materials, as well the fact that metal decorations could stain or damage the hat.

Favorite: SCH and BRD. SCH's AF2 the kind of outfit I've always loved. I doubt I will change appearance unless a non-Steampunk outfit is released. BRD's AF2 actually allows me to dress like "The Spoony Bard" himself - 'nuff said.

Honorable Mention: SMN - If the male version of the outfit's leg piece was long or a pair of tights, this would have bee my favorite set of AF2 gear.

Worst: NIN - Despite it being based on a Final Fantasy character's signature outfit, the fact that it's Based on Shadow and not Edge hurts it for me as
1) DRG, BRD, MNK, and possibly PLD draw from the IV series instead of VI. (SMN's AF2 looks like Rydia's outfit and Tera's outfit got together and had offspring, SCH and WAR are unique - I think - and BLM and WHM are (in my perspective) the generic Black Mage and White Mage NPCs from VI)
2) It seems we're working out of Ishgard for the moment, Shadow's black outfit sticks out like a sore thumb in the snow. Edge's white outfit would serve as better camouflage.
