Request to unlock Hempen set styles

[Enkidoh]

I would call it fake RSE so no it really has no uniqueness outside it really glamour and should be available to all races. It literally the same name "Hempen Camise" and even same icon Unless you talking about the actual RSE like Hyuran Tunic or Miqo'te Separates yea that gear can stay race specific

That's because the 'hempen' set is actually a holdover from the original version of FFXIV (1.0) - there, it was literal underwear in that there was actually two 'small-clothes' slots for body and legs that changed the appearance of what your underwear looked like when you removed all other gear. Small clothes had no stats and thus had no effect on your character's attributes (naturally you needed small clothes equipped at all times, you could change what underwear your character wore but could not strip them of it completely), they were simply for appearance. The swimwear from the 1.0 summer events was also classed as 'small clothes' and went in these slots in the same way.

However, with the change over to ARR, the small clothes slots were abolished and the gear that was formerly equipped there was made into proper body and leg gear. This is why the hempen set is racially locked, every race had their own unique underwear appearance (it's also why female highlander hyur smallclothes have a different appearance to midlander female lingerie, because in 1.0 you could not play as a female highlander hyur, they were male only and hence it's set is new for ARR, same as male miqo'te and female roegadyn). Hence I do not see SE removing the racial restriction for this set, as they would have to create copies of each race's set for every race and gender combination, development time better spent designing new gear and content. Really, if you want to wear another race's small clothes, get a Fantasia and change to that race. It's not that difficult.

Well if you looks around glamour does have a pretty big part in the game as there even a book they have shown off dedicated to it.

How about no, unless you going to pay for it which in that case still no. I don't think fantasia should be a thing to begin with.

As if any other race could pull off my sexy skirt.

I'm sure there's some male roes out there who'd love to try...

As many will know, the Hempen "underwear" set (Hempen Camise, Hempen Pantalettes) is quite dramatically different depending on which race is wearing them.

I would love to see these different versions of said items "unlocked", so that any race could wear any version of the item.

This would give more ready access to something that is, in my opinion, sorely lacking for the glamour aspect of the game: More "light and simple" options for chestpieces.

I don't know how much effort the "re-fitting" for the different races would take, but I would love if this could be considered, as it would allow for a lot more variety than is currently available without having to come up with entirely new designs, per se.

Thank you.

Long term want, all but gave up hope. I would think the midlander muscle-tee would look killer on my highlander. Flexing on a beach in a muscle-tee, oh yeah.

Personally, I like that the races have flavor gear, and am against this.

I'm totally against it too. It's what makes the races different and special and the hempen camise is a prime example. We need more of it not less. I'm all for more glamour styles however but not at the sake of nerfing racial differences.

Racial features and lore are what makes the races different, not their clothing. George Michael said it best, "Sometimes the clothes do not make the man."

Then have a miqo'te specific set, a Lallafel specific one, Hyur, Roegadyn, etc... The hempen set is a set of gear that apparently magically transforms depending on the race of the wearer, it's silly, as is preventing characters of other races from being able to make a hempen set of an alternate design.

RSE to s great, but the hempen set isn't really RSE since anyone can wear it.

Might as well just let me equip a tail and cat ears then, or use faces from other races. Make everything bland, cuz who wants to have uniqueness?
