Tired of Robe-looking armor

[Serilda]

They should stop LONG BOOTS too...

What?! No way, there are nowhere near enough plain, utilitarian, multi-job-equippable long boots without nonsense stuck to them. I was with you on the robes (would love more halfrobes, jackets and coats for certain jobs) but a man can never have too many thigh boots. Never.

I don't mind a glut of robes during a heavily asian-themed expansion but when the glamour gods work on new sets it would be nice to get a few which show off more than the shoes of the rest of my outfit. Gloves which go over sleeves need to die too (or come in two variants, over and under, for when we have our glamour log and a relaxing of glamour restrictions...)

I main a caster and I don't like how most caster gear looks so I glam all the time. But I recognise it's not because the gear looks bad, that it's because they're not to my personal taste. I don't feel forced to glam. I feel liberated by glamming because it means I'm not forced to wear something I dislike.

This is pretty much me as well. I already have nice sets I put together to wear and glamour any new set that looks like crap. Even if it doesn't and not my style, I will glamour over it to look how I was looking prior. It is nice to find new cool pieces and a lot of the time they are ruined by skirts or huge unnecessary spikes, but I just glamour over it and wait until I get something cool to wear. If you haven't found any piece to your liking throughout your journey in this game, then I don't know what to tell you. Maybe you're too picky. In the end, they should diversify their sets a little more though. Skirts, spikes, bad color schemes and my OCD problem, asymmetric pieces tend to ruin sets. I hope they do listen to our comments and try to change it up.

As far as long boots go, I would really like more plain boots that don't go past the knee. Too many do. I like my starlight boots, but I wish I could get a version without the snowflakes on the side.

What I really want is glamming to be tied to classes, not gear. I have the same glam on all three healers because of this. I really would like to be able to have them all look different given that their class storylines are very different. It's boring for anyone who likes playing classes that share gear to look the same all the time despite not playing the same class all the time.

Yeah, I hear you. Like when I want my Warrior, Dark Knight & Paladin to look different, but can't. That does suck.

1000 times yes. I especially love the 70 job quest gear (especially WHM and AST) but at this point I can't use either unless I want one of them to look like crap (my gear is a random mix of Omega normal and Creation gear).

I just want better armor AND better robes.... Some of the robes come with too much stupid crap attached to them....

I also agree with the idea glam should be class based.

I wish I could wear long boots. MNK shoes all suck. I also have a distaste for robes for everyone. I like to think of Yda's ARR outfit as an ideal MNK look. Loose fitting top, short shorts, and plated armor because kicking mobs with skin like steel must hurt. We don't even get actual traditional monk garb and that's about as robe-y as it gets.

Then...glam? There is plenty of armour in the game that isn't robe-like, and I'm saying that as a person who mains a caster.

Ain't no point when the glams dont increase with the expansion. There's nothing exciting about reusing the same old thing you've seen for several years when there's an entirely fresh opportunity to have something new.

No point in glamouring, when most of the glamour looks exactly the same anyways.
I hate to rely on "Glamour-made" outfits too. I'm glamouring the same stuff I have been for years.
:/ They just need better designs on their gear all around. So I agree with OP.

[Avatre]

But when players feel the need to have to glamour everything, then it's not that much of an option, now is it?

There are times when I glam a lower level/ilevel gear because I like the way it looks(case in point the DRG SB artifact gear - I am glamming that onto everything as I gear up my DRG because I like the look of it).
There are times I wish I could glam something onto a class that can't wear it(the gatherer leather jacket with undershirt - can't remember name of it right now, but I have it on a retainer because I love the look...even if I can't use it on anything but gatherer).

There are also gears that I love the look of that are newer, and thus will not glam(not currently, but it does happen sometimes).

It is really all personal choice whether a player feels the need to have to glamour everything.

1 As mentioned many times before by so many people, glamouring needs to be linked to class not the item of gear so my blm, smn and rdm can have unique looks even with the same gear equipped.

SE, please, its only common sense to offer this..sheesh!

please improve the glamour design asap

2. tired of robes? yes and tired of the "long stiff coat tail" look as well. and enough leggings and stockings attached to skirts ...holy guacamole batman, enough

Having some like this is perfectly fine!!! but 90% of gear?...please no.

3. I use lv 1 gear 99.9% of the time for all glamour (which is kinda sad really) battle gear ,especially from tomes /dungeons/raids is usually horrid.

Harsh, but I cant say it any other way for any longer lol.
