    All or nothing, and there are lines they don't want to cross so they opt for nothing.





    Honestly, I probably can. But glamour is "my thing" and my brain has particular skill in recalling useless facts and visuals.
    The easiest solution may very well be to unlock glamour restrictions for all armor and just exclude weapons from the equation, and honestly, I really don't care if someone else wants to wear WHM robes as a WAR. It's not my character. What someone else wants to name their character or glam there character is none of my business, and I think it's kind of selfish for someone to say they don't want someone else to have the ability to do something. If you don't like the idea of a character running around in another job's armor, then don't wear that armor. I don't like the idea of fighting in a frog suit, but it doesn't mean it's okay for me to tell other people not to. I understand it to a point from a thematic standpoint, but I would hate if that were the one thing standing between us and accessing all the rest of the gear in the game.

    That said, there is definitely a way to separate artifact gear. It's just about creating a new switch on gear of whether or not it can be universally glamoured, just like whether or not something can be traded on the MB, or if it can be put in the dresser, or if it can be dyed. There is some kind of switch on gear that lets you walk through that threshold into whatever lies beyond it, and it would be very easy to accomplish based on what we've seen already. The actual work would come into allowing gear to bypass role restrictions when used in glamour plates.

    I won't pretend to be a backseat developer, but I'm fairly certain that it's not a matter of whether they can or not and more of "do we want to let them do this"
