    Making it available isn't the problem here, though (to me: I can't speak for others). It's charging $12/USD for something that could be easily replicated in game for free. They could have made the purchase worthwhile by packaging the hair with it, but they decided not to for some reason.
    The outfit cannot be "replicated" in the game. It can be approximated fairly closely, so long as you're willing to play caster, but it's not directly the same.

    Most uses of the robe that I have seen so far on Eorzea Collection are specifically tying in with the pretty sash that does not exist on the other versions of the robe.

    And yes, Moenbryda's outfit is available for DoW classes but not DoM. I'm not sure that I'd buy it now, but I definitely would have if it was available when I was at an earlier stage in the game. It's still a design that I really like.

    Likewise for G'raha's outfit from the Crystal Tower raids – it was all gear you can get elsewhere, but not for all classes or in the exact colours, and with unique embellishments.

    The Scions' older basically-in-the-game-already outfits have been like this in the shop for literal years and nobody kicks up a fuss, but as soon as they add to the collection, everyone reacts like the sky is falling.

    And yes, it would be nice if we could just get them directly in the game, but it's long established at this point that Mog Station is *the* place where NPC outfits are made available. So again, given that there is unlikely to be any other way of acquiring these particular items, I would rather them be released than withheld.

    "Replicated" was a poor choice of word. I'll admit that. Still, I personally don't think the price equals what you get. We can agree to disagree on that.

    I never said that the items should be available in-game. I'm one of those people who are okay with purchasing exclusive items on Mogstation. That's not what I have a gripe with. It's the lack of quality/effort that they've had with the online store lately.

    I do agree that having the gear for all classes and separated is a step in the right direction, though.
