WHM gear is BUTT UGLY

[Exodus-E]

OK so I main a whm. I love my class but we have the ugliest gear. Our Esoteric gear makes us look like nuns.

Uh huh..
So I take that you've never heard of the Devout/Seer job, then?
You know, the job that's basically an upgrade to White Mage?

Because it's clearly modeled after it (just like Black Mage's Esoteric gear, which is modeled after the Magus job).
If anything, it's appropriate that it gets said gear.
