We really should be able to glamour other jobs' sets

[Ramesses]

As of lately, Square have definitely changed the "tanks wear plate and healers wear dresses" way of thinking when designing gear. With more jobs being released and armor sets being varied in designs, the line that separates armor types has been blurred. There's no longer much reasons for jobs to not be able to glam (not equip, just GLAMOUR) a basically identical set to theirs just because they're not the other job.


Now, of course, that doesn't mean there shouldn't be exceptions. Artifact gear or any weapon whatsoever should absolutely be off-limits. After all, we have sets like the ones from the first two Nier raids, which are almost identical - difference between the Fending, Maiming and Striking sets being how much you rolled your sleeves... or The Law's Order set of Scouting that is literally a plate armor and yet it's a Ninja set. The Asphodelos armor sets are similar - this time, the Fending set doesn't have a single piece of metal on it.


Especially with the amounts of cross-class gear being released, and people being able to look like a neon frog or a clown, I don't see how a Dragoon wearing a Fending set would break anyone's immersion.


tl;dr - Remove role restrictions but just for glamour.

I have to disagree-- and to quote Yoshi-P's stance on this during a past interview-- (sec, lemme find it)--

"First, to answer about removing the job restrictions, unfortunately, we don’t intend to remove them. The reason is simple. For players who have played other Final Fantasy titles, they’ll easily recognize these gear designs as a way to identify a particular job. You wouldn’t want to see someone carrying an axe casting black magic. You’d wonder: What the hell kind of game is this?" - Yoshi P

And I absolutely agree-- if you want to look like a certain job class, then play the job class.

For instance-- For EW, I went back to playing tank on my main charcater and leveled all four tank classes to 90 not only because I enjoy playing the job -- (Gunbreaker damage is truly exhilarating) --but also because I seriously enjoy looking the part.













If you're too lazy to play the job so you get the glam you desire, then go browse the Mog Station and look for some glam alternatives.

Period.
