Please reconsider removing job restrictions on glamour armor

People are also making assumptions that it’s an easy fix.

Yoshi P also never said that lifting it is a complicated task as far as I know. His answer was always "We don't want a WAR wearing a WHM robe", which a lot are fine with that. But what we're talking about is role restricted gears that already have been reskinned to other roles.

Another option is to just provide lvl1 replica versions for the gear you obtain. Or converting any gear in the glamour dresser into a replica, which means we won't be able to store job gear in the dresser.

Have you ever tried to level a tank through ARR content while carrying gear meant for DPS/healer? It plays havoc with the gear recommendation system because they can equip all of it. It runs off the VIT stat, so your +10 DEF / +5 VIT mage robe is recommended over the +30 DEF / +4 VIT tank armour that is still the best thing you can currently equip.

Is that still the case till now? I leveled a tank before 5.1 dropped for the Garo event and I remember the system only recommending to me gear that are for tanks when I was leveling up to 50. I bought some DPS ones by mistake and it wouldn't show up in the recommendation menu.

I had these two chest pieces in my armoury chest.


And this is what I get recommended

I think this might be a matter of different social etiquette. My understanding (please correct me if I'm wrong) is that Japanese people might see it as shameful to admit that their system has limitations and they can't make it do the thing that players want, so they deflect it with a reason why they shouldn't want it to happen anyway.

Yes, more Lv1 versions of outfits (and jewellery) would be a great workaround. Preferably not placed in locations like Pagos.

That looks hopeful. Maybe they realised and switched it to look at DEF or prioritise tank gear.
