Accessories are locked by class

[HiroKirito]

Your free bashing at me doesn't change the fact that little more HP saved me from dying a number of times so I think it is a valuable asset when pugging that I'm gonna to lose in next expansion.

I'm not "free bashing" you, sorry if you've taken it personally. Ik people used them early in the tier and I can appreciate why some did when we weren't over geared, I think it's now laughable when you see vit acc In post echo savage content when everyone's already over geared. If they are at this point in the patch cycle wearing vit acc still then HP isn't thier issue and they need to look into that, none of the raid content was designed with the intention of non-tank classes having to use vit acc.

Imo it'll make early progression a little more awkward but all the same it's a welcome change, and as you said previously you're not against it just you used them appropriately but will adapt.

Side note: I agree pugging savage is a nightmare.

No worries maybe it is the climax I'm feeling around these days, and I need to chill a little

Perhaps you missed the PvP changes where your gear isn't taken into account anymore?

By the time I open this topic PvP was yet to be cover and I forgot to update, thx for pointing it out.

OP'S title is worded wrong, locked by role not class. i.e. tanks can only use vit acc. No more str ones, no more non tanks using vit acc for a hp boost.

Ninjas are melee dps and don't share acc with other melee dps but with ranged dps, so no, future acc will be class locked (slaying for DRG/SAM/MNK for example) like any other piece of gear.

I won't be able to use my Astral Bracelet for all my classes? It's the only piece of jewelry I actually like. D:

Apparently VIT will no longer contribute to dps, I believe I read they are reverting back to only strength increasing dps.

This is what it is. Tank damage is back to 100% STR, but now we can't use STR accessories.

Its a fairly major nerf for tank damage.

I'm not trying to be pedantic, saying they are class locked confused someone as they interpreted it as locked to monk only, which in itself isn't a class it's a job, so I understand what the title means ^^

It's all perspective I guess, I'd say role locked as in str dps only, dex dps only etc. Either way it's irrelevant people can term the restriction however they want, it was simply a case of your wording confused someone and all I did was clarify it for them.

I blame square xD for having str, dex classes etc but then also calling the base versions of jobs "classes" I can see why people missinterpret meanings.

[DamianFatale]

Ugh. That's going to hurt glamour options. Not cool.

Agreed. I don't want to have to grind a dungeon for an item that looks the same, on three or more classes. That sucks.

[KarstenS]

No longer DoL and DoH gear in instances?

But even if you were nitpicking, is still false to mention roles instead of jobs, because those acc will be locked behind jobs (but even that is not 100% accurate, because the only gear locked behind job are relics. Any other is also viable to classes too) and not roles.

Agreed ^^ I shouldn't have said roles or that your wording was wrong I just meant it could have been clearer and tried to put it in a way the confused person could understand before they panicked they had wasted weeks of tokens xD
