Tank Darklight Armor.... Really?!

[Siven]

The Darklight armor is so hideous. Beyond being ugly, I would never use an item that occupied two slots. It has got to be the most obnoxious thing to see that on gear. I was looking forward to crafting gear too. Yuck. I hope we don't see any of this in the future.

There are never plans to change anything, even if it's absurd and nobody likes it.

Good one listening to the community.

Never mind the things they are changing:
* The Holy Shield glow glitch
* Inventory sorting
* Teleport fees
* DoL EXP gain rate
AND MORE!

Are they changing EVERYTHING we want? NOPE, nor should we expect them to. Anyone who's been on these forums has seen some of the retarded ideas that come out of the player community.

Why oh why did they make Darklight and Heavy Darksteel both locked? It's so great to get the Allagan Chest, your first piece of Allagan from turn one, and you have to go back to Hoplite because there are no other helms to pick from since both ilevel 70 options are locked.

If you have the Allagan chest, then you have a few options, all of them would still be better than darklight.

1. You can use the AF head piece (it is still actually better when combined with the Allagan top, stats and defense wise).
2. If you have the Mythology points you can go and get the Valor head piece, it is actually slightly better than the Allagan as it has more accuracy. (You swap crit for Parry with the allagan head). Otherwise they are identical stat wise.
3. You can farm up an AK Hoplight Circlet which is a good inbetween piece between the AF and Allagan.

In the end you have better stats than the Darklight hands down and you can show your face/hair. Win Win if you ask me.

The Darklight and Darksteel is just meant to be an Interrum piece and may soon be replaced with Crystal Tower.

This Darklight and Darksteel set has been around since early 1.0 do I would not expect they would prioritize changing/ redesigning this armor that will just get replaced with just about anything new.

Hope that helps.

Unfortunately, there are no plans to separate the head portion of darklight armor or visibly remove it from the body piece.

No big deal, just let the devs know that they shouldn't implement any "2 body piece" combinations for any class ever again.

Sometimes I wonder if they had DIFFERENT TEAMS who designed the armors. If they did, I would make the Dragoon design team the employees of the year. And o, I guess who ever is in charge with TEAM BARD is either gay or a girl. who wants a pink armor for their end game gear? >_<

Wow, so apparently all gay men like the color pink? All girls like the color pink for that matter as well? I actually like the Bard AF armor, so your opinion against mine :\

Anyway, I just don't get how they can make hooded(hood on) garments but the WHM AF armor for example, cannot be toggled between hood "on" or hood "off". Even our chocobos can wear a hooded(on) WHM AF armor, that was/is one of my peeves from 1.0 till now

Am I the only one upset with the tank darklight armor in every way?

1. They did very little to differentiate it from the armor you get while leveling up; "just strap on two blades to the back of the head and were good right?"

2. It looks bad, really bad. They took the worse looking armor in the game and somehow made it look even worse! (Not that hard though to be honest.)

3. It costs too dam much because they are sold in chest/head combo and leg/feet combo. Its a lot easier to buy a piece at 495 than to have to wait till you get 1320.

This in itself is unfair and should demand a re-design to the armor.

We need this changed.

I have no issues at all whatsoever with the Tank or any Darklight at all.

thank you.

I LOVE the darklight armors, and my favorite is the heavy one.

[Wlt]

I stand strong liking the heavy darklight armor as also the majority of players that got it on ver1 and had a e-penis hard on at the time being due to looks.

lol does the crying ever stop.

Because there's something called Crystal Tower; where the head/chest pieces are (if I remember correctly) were separated, and meant to be the bridge between Darklight and Coil.
