Begging for more "Adventurer" appropriate Glamour Gear

[Tsiron]

Very nice sets. Are the all obtained in game, and what job(s) can wear them? Would you care to identify the pieces? I’m new to the game, have only dabbled in paladin and red mage so far, so am interested in checking out more glamour sets.

Ah yeah I debated back and forth whether to include names or not. In order they're: Infantry set, Alliance Striking set, Foestriker set, Crystarium Fending set, Valerian Rune Fencer set, Ivalician Holy Knight set, and Onion set.

I do tend to prefer more "fantasy" designs as well but I'm not really sure the game is lacking in them. Sure they don't end up in the cash shop as the Next Big Promoted thing but quite a bit of dungeon gear, raid drop gear and tomestone gear very much still fits the "fantasy" vibe quite well. Even the Nier gear has some very traditional fantasy pieces mixed in, and I particularly love almost all of the Heirloom gear from Matoya's Relict.

... while that's true, it's still class-restricted level 80 gear with stats and everything. I would like more of this aesthetic to make it into the level 1 "All Classes" gear we get every now and again is what I mean

I mean a lot of ARR was exclusively stuff like this.

They pivoted hard because it wasn't super popular. They seem to value 'glam diversity' in each expansion and do pretty well at it: Most expansions have, for example, some glams that let you go edgy, realistic fantasy, modern, tribal-esque, or 'fantasy punk.'

I would much rather they focus on glam diversity (and perhaps unlock jobs for glams save artifact gear), than to put focus on any one specific 'type' of glam for an expansion.

Couldn't it just be that... the ARR gear just looks bad? Because if we're thinkng about the same low-level sets then yeah, no wonder people didn't like them...

For the record though I'm not asking that they exclusively cater to my tastes or anything, just that there be more options for this kind of look than basically none at all (barring the Crystarium Guard and Feast sets, the latter of which you can't even get anymore)

Honestly I think there's a lot of "Adventurer" types of gear. Some of the ones you've shown are even from Shadowbringers.

What I think is an issue is that some specific jobs have gaps in the style of armors they provide. If we ever get cross-class glamours in some form, it'd solve a lot of that.

Until we get something like that, people will always lean towards the lvl 1 glamours because they can use the look on all their jobs.

See above. I'm specifically wishing there were more level 1 "All Classes" gear in this style

I... really can't get behind this assessment of the Glamour system. One of the things I tend to do is hunt for glamours and I have jobs at various levels on different characters. Lacking a set style really hasn't been an issue. In fact, this could very easily become an "Adventurer's Travel Gear" Glamour thread depicting examples of otherwise.

I tend to like travel-ready gear, particularly on my Dragoon.

We've got a large Roleplaying community in this game. It may not hurt to ask them what they use.

Failing that, look up https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/. You'll be able to see a wide variety of fashion trends and the gear that provides them. There is even a challenge section to make good looks for new players.

That's literally where I got my images from, I'm well aware of Eorzea Collection lol. Just wish there were more universal options...
