    So will Glamours Require Crafting?

    Anyone know or have read any hints?

    1.You have the outspoken 'we're loving it' mob who are probably ignoring issues.
    2.In addition, there's the optimistic 'I'm having fun and waiting for more' group, who are willing to overlook some things and hope others are fixed soon.
    3.Then there's the 'I really want this to work, but it isn't' group, who see some faint promise in the game, but don't have a lot of faith that the developers will fix the large problems anytime soon.
    4.Lastly, there's the 'I dislike it, therefore no one can like it' group.

    I think some people have been misquoting the live letter. I think it was more or less implied that crafting will be able to produce certain vanity gears especially for glamour, but there's been nothing to imply you'd actually need crafting to work with the system itself. Not yet, anyway.

    I believe the Crafters can make the clothing and Armor for the Glamour system. I don't know if exclusively or if we can get some in shops/dungeon drops, but it was said that Crafting played a pivotal role in Glamour. So much so that as soon as the Q&A appeared after the live production there was a thread that complained about it.

    I really wish Yoshi-P had been less vague, and/or the translation had expanded on the answer to the Q&A because I think it has more people skeptical than excited, if the forums are any indicator.

    They probably use crafts to make a consumable that is used in the vanity system.

    I wouldn't mind a system like this. Instead of going to the transmog npc you go the auction house to buy a stack of 20 whatevers that let you change an item into another. If you have to seek out a crafter every time you want to transmog I wouldn't even bother with it/feel like getting ripped off having someone click a few buttons for you.

    Your only getting ripped off when the Crafters overcharge for what is essentially 30 seconds out of their day, I always tell people who ask that I don't charge for the craft / meld but tips are appreciated

    How much it might cost is beside the point, as this is something we should be able to do on the fly. If the prisms are anything less than modular wardrobe sets, then the system is not as good as it should be.

    There's really no need to try and re-invent the wheel here. Squeenix needs to just go with the best system that works.

    Because, i absolutely hate to spend money in general, but its even worse when it goes in another player's pocket.

    Imo it should be a free system "handed" to us from the start or lets say lvl15 ( just like dyes and aesthetician ).
    And speaking of the aesthetician, if its not a thing we can do on the go, why not adding this feature on his options available? I mean he already serves the "how do i want to look like" purpose after all.
