Now your thread has simply turned into just another 'abolish gear restrictions' support group.

    Tell you what though. I will play along according to your original guidelines, as I was recently disappointed that the new Trojan gearsets have a pair of boots that are available for Striking and Scouting that are absolutely perfect for WAR. I try to look the part when I choose my glamours, and I really like the 'fur and leather' attire WAR is known for. It can also be cumbersome finding suitable tanking gear sets for a female Midlander that I don't think make them look ridiculous. Much like how players would like to see more healing sets suitable for males, I feel the same way about tanking gear for females.

    Anywho:
    Pretty please SE!
    To be fair, I should have included raid gear from the start, along with job type exclusive leveling gear. There's so much gear within all three that would look great or even better on other job types, as you yourself have just made an example of.

    Like, I want the whole gear set of the Dwarven Mythril armor set so I can dress my lalafell in it. I LOVE the dwarves, but i hate how the dev team completely missed the opportunity to make level 1 glmaoir gear out of their sets.

    A second disappointing part about the Trojan sets is the caster and healer head gear. I don't even understand how neither version was reused for the scouting gear set. It would look awesome on it! And on top of that, none of the gear is dyable. I'm honestly getting tired of the dev team making random dungeon gear undyable. Its tiresome and furrher stifles creativity.

    Also, about the getting rid of job gear restrictions thing. I really don't have much confidence in that since its been asked for repeatedly for several years and nothing has come of it. Meanwhile, in the past, the dev team made a couple of lvling gear into level 1 dyable glamour that could be worn by any job type. I really wish they would bring that way of doing things back if getting rid of job restrictions via the glamour dresser truly isn't possible. At least this way, the spaghetti code restrictions can be circumvented without any issues and we all get what we want.
