Glamour Set Appreciation Thread

For me, this feature also only becomes useful once it can hold color, because I like to dye in purewhite and jetblack. : )
It's too expensive to dye stuff new again and again.

Im superhappy, I sacrificed a bunch of jet black /pure white dyes yesterday, I can get more gil it is fine. But to suddenly have that much storage and yes, just like you I ran rathalos ex to grab my missing pieces. the only dumb thing (besides losing the dyes) was that some sets required double the amount. they shouldve just put like all of the salon servers pieces into one. But yeah Im happy, probably spent two hours yesterday just on putting stuff from my retainers into my glam dresser.

This feature is almost entirely useless to me, because the dyes don't get saved. I'm way too cheap/lazy to dye the same pieces over and over again and with only 20 glam plates I can't save dyed stuff on the glam plates indefinitely either. The only items I would put into the sets is stuff I don't actively use and then it has no business being in my glam box in the first place.

I'd be much happier if they had finally given us more glam plates and more box space.

I got a refund of about 100 slots not counting incomplete sets. Its a decent workaround.

It's still just a bandaid fix. This problem has already been solved. Just copy WoW's transmog system. We don't need to waste time reinventing the wheel.

I deeply enjoy it as a feature but it has two major issues: One, what people mentioned about erasing dye, I have far, far, faaaaaaaaaaaar too many pieces in Jet Black and Pure White that redying them would cost me far too much gil, and two, it needs to be applied to more sets, right now it only affects level 1 universal glam items, so any Job-locked things are SoL.

Mind it made me incredibly glad I had chosen to be a lil bit silly and keep the identical Rathalos items that I had no point in keeping until now.

This system will likely never hold dye information since that goes against the idea of simplifying the data down. The whole point with this is to reduce a full set to what amounts to a single item. If you wanted to hold the detail of each items dye setup, you’re basically back to the original amount of information.

If we are ever going to get something along the lines of WoW’s transmog system, dyes will always need to be confined to the glamour plates at most. It’s too much variation to add for each specific item in terms of dresser storage.

If I'm correct about the way it's being stored, it seems likely if they do allow dying,
* the entire set would have to be dyed at once
* setwide dual dyes would not be supported

In my opinion they should really change the way Dyes work completely.
Having to get the dye again every time you want to dye something is annoying.
Having to purchase some on the mogstation when they are not re-usable is a scam.
Dyes should be made into collectibles.
Make them potentially harder to unlock, but once you have one color, you should be able to use it as many time as you'd like.
That would also be another way to save inventory space.

Do you really have to take the whole set out of the dresser just to then put it back in as a set? That can't be real. There's gotta be like a button that just does it that I'm not seeing, right? Like I can right click and search and the game knows the other pieces are there in the dresser. Why would it not just do it?

I wish you didn’t have to but you have to pull it out and put them in sets from your inventory. The only thing it does while still in the dresser is tell you what pieces are part of the set.

Def was a PITA when I was converting things to sets )’:
