They can all wear the pig outfit, it doesn't mess with their identity, it's for the giggles. However, there are defined rules based on tradition: blackmage shouldn't use a whitemage robe. Since Final Fantasy 1 (1987) Whitemage had their signature white robe with red triangles. I'm just giving this as an example. Later on, more jobs were added and their identity comes from the type of gear they are using. The bikinis, the pig outfit, the moogle attire, whatever that comes to your mind, are NOT tied to ANY identity of ANY job. You are mixing things up here.

    2 years ago, Yoshi-p answered this here: CLICK ME.. As I mentioned in my first post in this thread, I'd be down to remove the restriction for generic looking gear, like some dungeons drops, as they are already swapped and re-coloured for other jobs. But certain types of gear should stay for the sake of tradition as this is, like it or not, a Final Fantasy game.

    Ok so how bout this , then would it be ok with you guys if for instance they only allowed us to glamour a certain amount of af pieces at a time like one or two max that would be compromise to me.

    Because the smallest of some of these aesthetics are not that job defining, like the ops boots, or the second post the bards pants. I would like to wear those on another class they are just pants they cant be that specific and to me what he said is just messed up about casters how are you gona let a tank wear clothe and robes , but then a caster cant wear metal thats totally wrong imo. For a male character some of the caster gear isnt very aggressive looking so if I ran a healer or caster on a male character I would def be looking to have something that was more hardcore than the current options. But like someone else said the devs have changed their minds on certain things for mass appeal reasons and I don't see why they wouldnt go back on this one , and I think a compromise would be to not allow for the glaming of a whole entire set.

    If people are still tripping at that point then they would be being stubborn because when I looked at the ops example I didn't instantly know that those where summoner boots. And tbh if they didn't wana create confusion on jobs then they should have never mailed out their first chocbo head as a vet reward, being a new player I was more caught off guard by where the hec did that come from than , a paladin in a robe. The devs kinda contradict themselves on this, if we are talkin about pure image and not what it says on the tag line by all gear accessible if Im using my own two eyes then, they have failed on keeping the identity intact on their jobs so why pretend as if allowing us to change this feature would be any different.

    I know you really want some pieces from certain AFs, but... Still sounds like in contradiction with the dev team's idea, and what a AF is supposed to be.

    Well, i did. And i'm probably not the only one. It's not because you didn't know that means it's irrelevant. ^^;
    But yeah, we are stubborn. Us. Not you, don't worry. I think i can live with that.

    Is that a reason ? I mean, between that kind of comparison and the jump potion, you seem really lost... Because it's totally off topic. :/
    (unless Chocobo Mage was something, and that suit its AF)
    And again, nobody said a mage couldn't wear an armor, most of us want more diversity, and it's totally possible without ruinning things around just for a piece or two.
