New savage raid gear has weapon and armour effects. Thoughts?

[Duskane]

look they just don't know how to design good looking bows in this game

Are you unable to do savage for the gear or?

Or what?

Most content in the game is made for casual players, they even decided to release tomestones a week earlier as to not upset the casual playerbase. Most good glamours are also obtainable by casual players. I'm not sure how that makes us raiders spoiled brats. You'll also be able to obtain a version of this armor that isn't dyable just by doing the normal raids, which anyone can do.

A bad glamour that won't glow or be dyable, yes I'm so relieved to hear I'm going to get the welfare version and that I can get the real version when 8.0 comes out.

The gear looks amazing, hands down. My hot take of the day is that dragoon wins this round of gear by a long shot. IMO this is the most beautiful drg lance in the game, beating out my previous favorite: the second stage of the shb relic. I have a soft spot for sword spears. The weapons look like the relic designers got a shot at making savage weapons and I'm all for it.

Or what?

Have you considered becoming a better player at the game?

Savage raiders are spoiled brats.

this makes you sound spoiled. not everything has to be handed to you. work for your rewards.

Looks good, glad they're branching out a bit and doing something unique.

Glowy equipment is far from unique. It basically a staple of MMOs.

[Lihtleita]

not my cup of tea, but i have a feeling this is what a lot of newer players would like.

I'll take that as you can't do savage then. Savage is meant to have a nice reward to show off and look cool for doing it early. They are releasing a huge chunk of casual friendly content. Raiders get a lot less in comparison.
Why are you so salty and bitter. As the saying goes, git gud. If you care enough for the glamour then practice and clear the raids, they are not as hard as some like to make out.

I love them! Caster, healer and DRG weapon win this round for me but I like all of them except the BRD weapon. The caster set is perfect for BLM.
I would've liked a set with pants for healers but the robes still look great, nice mix of plain, unicoloured space and highly detailed acessories. I'm curious to see how they'll dye. I hope lighter colours still work and they're not low-key locked to dark colours.
Looks like I'll do some serious farming next tier.

Git gud is one of those things people say when they don't have an actual argument. So grats on tipping your hand.

If I'm salty and bitter about savage then you can take it up with the people who designed those fights to make them stress inducing to the point of unhealthy, or the savage raiding community who heaps onto that stress by being unhelpful, toxic jerks who demand perfection at all times and hang expulsion from their precious statics over your head at every point in the process of clearing these badly designed nightmares.

Personally, I feel like they are crossing a line into WoW territory with those armor effects. If they were going to take inspiration from other games then I wish they made the armor look more like GW2's glowing armor and make them look more like sigils glowing rather than the armor turning into a particle effect fountain, lol.
