So glamour plates are dumber than anticipated...

[Kogekigami]

i have now learnt this when the system didn't warn me i was trying to put in a item saved to a gear set while i was fussing the cat (my own fault a bit yes) and now one of my main hands gone =3= thanks for now warning pop up though se

I welcome the glamour dresser with open arms. it's about time something like this was implemented. I don't like how it destroys items that you put in either....sounds like an unnecessary step to me.

By the way why is no-one complaining about the class restrictions on glamours? For example as a warrior I want to put on a body piece restricted to black mage... I find it mildly infuriating that I can't even though it's in the glamour dresser.
It's 2018 for crying out loud. There shouldn't BE class restrictions for items turned into glamour. there are no class restrictions on converted items in rival games such as:

1. World of Warcraft
2. Guild Wars 2
3. RIFT
4. Blade and Soul
5. Aion... ah what the heck, the list can go on forever.
So why does FF14 have it? to be a nuisance ?

Because it would look really bad in my opinion, for example, to see a tank doing his job while wearing a healer's set!...

Class restrictions on glamours are fine by me and I hope SE never changes that!...

I can't believe they made a good system that worked well... bad. Why change it at all then!

Completely respect your opinion here , but I would love it if there was more freedom with fashion...like basically all triple A mmos out now. A pally or warrior can already be a half naked tribesman cat-person if they wanted to, so the sets you consider weird already exist. I'm only asking SE to EXPAND further fashion sets. I would love it if my healing classes were able to use glamour sets from other disciples of magic like the lvl 50 PVP sets. Still casting gear right?

If the only reason you don't want these class restrictions lifted is visual pollution, then I'm sorry but that's not enough for me
My immersion is already broken after seeing cat-people tanking dungeons and raids half naked with that moogle outfit LOL

I've never really understood this argument. As is it, we already have plate gear that healers can wear, skirts for tanks, not to mention bikinis, chocobo suits, emperor's new outfit glamours, bunny suits, snowman, ghosts, and a ton of other things that make absolutely no sense for characters to be going into battle wearing. This game does not really seem to worry too much about keeping things realistic. What is the harm of being able to share gear between the classes? Party roles are clearly marked in a party list and weapons/skill animations make it clear what job a person is on. :X

This is pretty dumb setup but i'm wondering if it's a bug. I tried this with my BLM and RDM for an example. Both share the 340 gear. I decided to glamour both independently to their respective 290 gear and save to the gearset. Now /gearset and pull up the gearset list you'll notice that via preview AND the "display set" it actually says both my BLM and RDM are set up in their job gear but when swapping of corse it does not and you have to click on the plate and set the plate you want to it.

Wait - the good old glamour system we had, is it still available AS WELL as the new system? Haven't been ingame since patch yet.

THANK YOU!!! this is exactly what i am thinking )) especially now that there is a glamour plate / glamour dresser system, one of the logical steps forward is to unlock class restrictions ONCE the item is placed into the dresser

Being Japanese I'll say this... look up japanese firearms in WW2. They were often overly complex and worse than much simpler western firearms. The japanese have a tendency to over complicate simple things. I had this issue growing up in america but I adapted and learn to edit my ideas a lot.

The current outfit system is trash. It is overly complicated, lacks intuitiveness, and just doesn't do what the players want.

It reminds me of the firearms in WW2.

It's not just the Japanese that do this. My relatives do this as well. It's called making an easy job hard. It's gotten to the point were I don't want to work with them at all anymore.

Yes. The new system isn’t separate in the end, it’s essentially a quick method of applying multiple glamours to your current gear.

That’s also why class restrictions still apply - once the glamour is applied from the plate, it’s just the same as if it was applied manually, with the same rules determining whether it is seen or not.
